Mediterranean Diet Recipes

WHY BREAST CANCER UK? Breast cancer UK and the Andalucian Olive Co have a natural partnership as olive oil is a crucial ingredient in a Mediterranean diet which numerous studies have shown can help reduce your risk of breast cancer. A good diet and a healthy weight can help protect against breast cancer. Watching what you eat, and how much, are two ways of protecting yourself against the risk of developing breast cancer.

OUR RELATIONSHIP The Andalucian Olive Company is raising vital funds for Breast Cancer UK by donating 10% of proceeds from sales of its organic range of oils. These funds will help our scientists to carry out world-class research into the causes of breast cancer. It will also help us to provide advice and information to people to help them reduce their risk of getting breast cancer. Together we can help prevent people having to hear the words ‘you have breast cancer’. Your purchase can help make this happen.

WHY IS MEDITERRANEAN DIET GOOD FOR YOU? The Mediterranean diet is characterised by high intake of olive oil, vegetables, fruits, plant protein, fish and other seafood, whole grains, nuts, and low-fat dairy and low red meat consumption. Several studies show a link between sticking to the Mediterranean Diet and a reduced risk of breast cancer.

Try and eat organic: Although there is no conclusive evidence that organic food offers protection against breast cancer, some studies suggest it may. Organic food contains less pesticide residue and therefore it is less likely to contain hormone-disrupting chemicals which may be linked to breast cancer.

GOLDEN RULES FOR A HEALTHY DIET Eat natural and unprocessed food whenever possible. Try to buy organic whenever possible. Have a varied and balanced diet with a range of different nutrients. Try to get all you need from food rather than vitamin supplements. Eat as much as you need rather than as much as you want, to keep a healthy weight.

OTHER LIFESTYLE CHANGES YOU CAN MAKE TO REDUCE YOUR RISK OF BREAST CANCER Be active – it is recommended that you do at least 150 mins of physical exercise a week. The more you do, the more benefit it will have. Reduce or stop drinking alcohol. Reduce your exposure to harmful chemicals. www.breastcanceruk.org.uk
