In a study funded by the Susan G. Komen for the Cure -- Foundation, Dr.
Mary Flynn researched the effects of an olive-oil-and-plant-based diet
on overweight women who had previously undergone treatment for invasive
breast cancer. Now, she reveals her findings in The Pink Ribbon Diet.
Not only is this program more effective than the National Cancer
Institute's recommended low-fat diet, but it is also a diet that women
find more satisfying and can thereby sustain for life.
The Pink Ribbon Diet features 150 recipes that naturally emphasize
Mediterranean foods with nutrients thought to lower breast-cancer risk
and foods that improve biomarkers, indicators of risk. This diet has
been effective in helping women who have had breast cancer and those at
risk of getting it to avoid unhealthy weight gain and safeguard their
health.
