Cancer survivors need to do the same as people without cancer

According to what are being called new guidelines, the American Cancer Society says that cancer survivors should exercise and eat right in order to reduce the risk of the cancer recurring, prompting me to ask “why in the world would these guidelines be considered as new?”

Isn’t this what we’ve always told cancer patients?

And if we didn’t shouldn’t we have been doing so?

One other point the ACS makes that’s also worth underlining: there is absolutely no evidence that supplements offer any additional benefits over a healthy diet to a cancer patient.

Amen to all that.
