About this ebook

Some of the best foods to eat during chemotherapy or other cancer treatments are plant-based proteins. They offer the highest levels of vitamins and minerals. This means eating lots of vegetables, as well as beans, legumes, nuts, and seeds.
In order to effectively absorb the nutrients from the food that support your immune system and reduce inflammation, eating a plant-based diet helps your gut health.
This cookbook has all the recipes which are very beneficial for cancer patients. But keep in mind to wash all the vegetables and fruits thoroughly before taking them for cooking.

    Let’s fight diseases with food

    SUSAN ZEPPIERI

    Introduction

    It is a shared hope among cancer survivors that they will be able to enjoy a long, healthy life. You can lower your risk of many chronic diseases, including inflammation, heart disease, and circulation problems, by eating less calories, saturated fat, and animal fats. The majority of prospective observational studies show a 10%-12% reduction in cancer risk among vegetarians, though data for specific malignancies is inconsistent. However, a wealth of evidence suggests that a plant-based diet—including those high in fruits and vegetables, fiber, antioxidants, and phytochemical—as well as a normal body mass index (BMI), can reduce the risk of developing and experiencing recurrent cancer. Eating a lot of meat, especially red and processed meats, is linked to an increased risk of several cancers. Indirect and direct evidence both point to the protective effects of a vegetarian diet against cancer.

    Cancer remains the leading worldwide cause of death, despite intensive research and an expanding range of treatment options. There were 7.4 million deaths from cancer in 2004, and experts predict that number will rise to 12 million by 2030.  It is still widely believed that lifestyle and environmental factors are linked to the development of cancer, with estimates ranging from 90% to 95%. Tobacco use, poor nutrition, excessive alcohol consumption, prolonged sun exposure, exposure to environmental toxins, illness, stress, obesity, and lack of physical activity are all major lifestyle factors. In 1981, it was estimated that 30%-35% of all cancers in the United States could be attributed to dietary factors. While newer calculations maintain a 35% overall impact, they also note that diet may be related to as many as 70% of colorectal and prostate cancer cases, 50% of breast, endometrial, pancreatic, and gallbladder cancer cases, but only about 20% of lung, bladder, mouth, and esophageal cancers. Although dietary patterns and decisions play a significant role in modulating cancer risk, the best dietary pattern for the primary prevention of cancer is still unknown. Avoiding all forms of meat is the defining characteristic of a vegetarian diet (beef, hog, lamb, poultry, fish, etc.). Lacto-vegetarians don't eat eggs either, but they do eat dairy products.

    1) Lentil and Veggie Enchilada Casserole

    90-minute recipe

    Ingredients

    One Tbsp. olive oil

    One red bell pepper, cut into 1/4-inch dice

    Two celery stalks, trimmed and cut into 1/4-inch dice

    One small onion, finely chopped

    Two garlic cloves, minced

    One large carrot, shredded on a box grater's big holes after being peeled (about 1 cup of)

    2 tsp. ground cumin

    1 tsp. coriander

    1 tsp. dried oregano

    1 tsp. chipotle chili powder

    1/2 tsp. kosher salt

    3 cups of water

    2 packed cups of baby kale or spinach, roughly chopped

    1 cup of green or brown lentils, rinsed

    1 cup of roughly chopped fresh cilantro, optional

    Nonstick cooking spray/oil

    One 19-ounces can mild red enchilada sauce, divided

    Fifteen 6-inch corn tortillas, cut in half

    1 1/2 cups of reduced-fat Mexican cheese blend or Cheddar cheese, divided

    INSTRUCTIONS

    Warm the oil over moderate heat in a medium-sized saucepan. Celery, bell pepper, and onion should be added. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring often, until soft and caramelized.

    Cook, stirring often, the mixture of garlic, carrot, cumin, oregano, coriander, chili powder, and salt for approximately two minutes, or until the garlic is brown and aromatic.

    Lentils and water are mixed. Bring to a boil and immediately lower heat. 15 to 20 minutes with the lid on, till the meat is only slightly soft. Every 3 to 5 minutes, check to see if the food is soft and quickly stir every time. (Depending on the variety of lentil, a different amount of time will be required to cook it) As soon as it's finished, add kale & cilantro and toss until wilted, about a minute. If necessary, add more salt after tasting.

    Turn on the oven to 350°F while the lentils are cooking. Set aside a 9 x 13-inch baking dish or pan that has been lightly oiled or coated with nonstick cooking spray.

    Pour 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce into bottom of prepared pan to form casserole. Ten tortilla halves should be arranged over the sauce, slightly overlapping. Add another 1/2 cup of sauce, 2 1/4 cups of the lentil mixture, and 1/2 cup of cheese equally over top.

    Ten tortilla halves, one-half cup of sauce, two and a half more cups of lentils (draining any liquid), and one-half cup of cheese make up the following layer.

    The last layer should include the remaining 10 tortilla halves, 1/2 cup of cheese, and leftover enchilada sauce.

    Bake the casserole for about 35 minutes, or until it is cooked thoroughly and bubbling. Slice and serve after a brief cooling.
