Nutrition and Kidney Cancer Risk Nutrition plays a significant role in the risk and progression of kidney cancer, just as it does with many other types of cancer. While no diet can completely prevent cancer, certain eating patterns can help lower the risk. Here's how nutrition relates to kidney cancer risk: Obesity: A high body weight is a significant risk factor for kidney cancer. Eating a balanced diet that maintains a healthy weight may reduce the risk. Fruits and Vegetables: Diets rich in fruits and vegetables provide antioxidants and other nutrients that can help protect against cancer. Red and Processed Meat: High consumption of red and processed meats has been linked to an increased risk of various cancers, including kidney cancer. Limiting these foods is often recommended. Smoked and Grilled Foods: These foods can contain carcinogenic substances that might increase cancer risk. Limiting consumption can be beneficial. Organic Foods: Some believe that choosing organic foods to limit exposure to pesticides and other chemicals might reduce cancer risk, although evidence is not definitive. Water Intake: Adequate water intake is crucial for kidney health and may help flush out potential carcinogens. Alcohol and Smoking: While mainly associated with other types of cancer, reducing alcohol consumption and avoiding smoking can overall help in reducing cancer risks, including kidney cancer. Remember, while good nutrition is important, it's just one aspect of cancer prevention. Regular check-ups, a healthy lifestyle, and genetic factors also play significant roles. Consulting healthcare providers for personalized advice is always the best course of action. #EatHealthy #CancerPrevention #KidneyHealth #HealthyDiet #NutritionMatters #WellnessJourney #FightCancer

Clinical Psychologist, Registered Dietitian, Fitness Expert, Featured Media Expert, and Bestselling Author of Deprogram Diet Culture: Rethink Your Relationship With Food, Heal Your Mind, and LIve a Diet-Free Life.
In recognition of National Nutrition Month, let's explore the profound impact that our diet can have on our gut health, particularly in fortifying our gut barrier against conditions such as leaky gut. Leaky gut, or increased intestinal permeability, is a condition where the lining of the small intestine becomes damaged, allowing undigested food particles, toxic waste products, and bacteria to "leak" through the intestines and flood the bloodstream. This can trigger inflammation and changes in the gut flora (normal bacteria) that could lead to complications such as nutritional deficiencies, digestive issues, and more. Fermented foods, high fiber foods, and omega-3 fatty acids play a pivotal role in strengthening this vital barrier. Fermented foods enhance the diversity of gut flora, improve the health of the intestinal lining, and boost the immune system. High fiber foods, on the other hand, serve as fuel for beneficial gut bacteria, promoting a healthy microbiome and aiding in digestion. Meanwhile, omega-3 fatty acids, found in fish and flaxseeds, have been shown to reduce inflammation in the body, thereby supporting the integrity of the intestinal wall. This National Nutrition Month, let's shift our focus from restrictive dieting to nurturing our bodies with the nutrients they need to thrive. I invite you to explore our online course, Deprogram Diet Culture, available at anew-insight.com. This course is designed to help you break free from the cycle of dieting and to adopt a more holistic approach to nutrition and wellness. Join us in embracing a healthier, more informed approach to eating that supports not just your gut health, but your overall well-being. #GutHealth #NutritionMonth #HolisticNutrition #WellnessJourney #ANEWInsight #NutritionalPsychologist #deprogramdietculture #drsupatratovar #drtovar #supatratovar #drt #NutrionalPsychology Take the first step towards a happier, healthier gut today.

Did you know that proper nutrition can play a crucial role in cancer care and recovery? Nutrition is a key component in the journey of cancer patients, aiding in strengthening the immune system, maintaining body weight, and improving overall well-being. A balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains can help manage treatment side effects, support the body’s healing process, and enhance the quality of life for those battling cancer. Types of Food Suitable for Cancer Patients: Fruits and Vegetables: Provide essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Aim for a variety of colors to ensure a range of nutrients. Lean Proteins: Such as chicken, turkey, fish, beans, and legumes, help in tissue repair and maintaining muscle mass. Whole Grains: Brown rice, quinoa, whole wheat bread, and oatmeal provide necessary fiber and energy. Healthy Fats: Avocados, nuts, seeds, and olive oil support overall health and can be easier to digest. Avoid Processed Foods: Limit intake of sugary, fatty, and highly processed foods that offer little nutritional value. Consult with a Dietitian: Tailored advice from a professional can address specific dietary needs and restrictions. By prioritizing nutrition, patients and caregivers can make informed dietary choices that promote health and resilience. Whether you’re dealing with cancer yourself or caring for someone who is, focusing on nutrition can make a significant difference.

Ever wondered why we age (and how to slow it down)? As we age, we see an increase in senescent cells. These zombie-like cells refuse to die, and they can release harmful signals that: -Impair thinking -Weaken the immune system -Speed up the aging process -Contribute to various diseases But, don’t worry! You can reduce the build up of these cells with the right nutritional choices -> 4 nutrition hacks to combat senescent cells: -Tumeric -More phytochemicals -Moderate caloric restriction -Balanced diet (like Mediterranean) 🧬 TURMERIC: Curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric, can activate proteins that help prevent senescence. Spice up your meals with fresh or dry turmeric or consider supplementation. 🧬 PHYTOCHEMICALS: These are found in plant foods and can help your body get rid of senescent cells. Ex: quercetin (found in strawberries, grapes and tomatoes), EGCG (found in green tea, avocado, and pistachios). 🧬 MODERATE CALORIC RESTRICTION: A recent study found people who restricted calories by ~12% (but still had adequate nutrition) for two years decreased the number of senescent-related biomarkers in their bodies. Try eating to your “hara hachi bu point”– eating until you’re 80% full. 🧬 BALANCED DIET: In adults under 65, high-carb diets are linked with aging, high protein diets are linked with increased cancer risk and death, and high-fat diets can contribute to obesity and insulin resistance. Instead, try a well-rounded, phytochemical-rich diet like the Mediterranean (lean meats, fatty fish, whole grains, nuts, seeds, fruits/veggies). SHARE this with someone who would LOVE to hear this! 🤩 #longevity #healthspan #senescentcells

Glutathione is a master antioxidant that helps detoxify the body, reduce inflammation, and support the immune system. For those with autoimmune conditions, adding these foods to your diet can help reduce flare-ups and promote overall wellness. 🌿 𝗦𝘂𝗹𝗳𝘂𝗿-𝗥𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝗙𝗼𝗼𝗱𝘀: Sulfur is a key component of glutathione, and eating sulfur-rich foods helps your body produce more of it. Incorporate these foods into your diet: ◼️Organ meats, beef, chicken, fish, shrimp, scallops, and Brazil nuts ◼️Beef, bone broth, onions, garlic, and shallots 🧄𝗦𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗶𝘂𝗺-𝗥𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝗙𝗼𝗼𝗱𝘀: Selenium works hand in hand with glutathione, helping to neutralize free radicals and support immune function. These foods are rich in selenium: ◼️ Papaya, strawberries, and kiwi 🍊𝗩𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗻 𝗖 𝗙𝗼𝗼𝗱𝘀: Vitamin C plays a role in regenerating glutathione, making it more effective. Load up on these vitamin C-rich fruits and vegetables: ◼️Citrus fruits, berries, bell peppers, and broccoli By incorporating these nutrient-dense foods into your daily meals, you not only support your overall health but also give your immune system the tools it needs to better manage autoimmune flares. In addition to these foods, maintaining a balanced diet, rich in anti-inflammatory nutrients, is key to controlling autoimmune symptoms. Listen to your body and nourish it with the best nature has to offer. Start with small changes and see how these foods can support your journey to better health!

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and Nutrition: A Path to Better Health! Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) affects countless women, leading to symptoms like weight gain and irregular periods. Although there's no cure, diet significantly impacts PCOS management giving a way forward and a ray of hope! Key Dietary Strategies for PCOS: 1. Low-Glycemic Index Foods: Opt for foods that slowly increase blood sugar levels, like whole grains and vegetables, to help manage insulin levels. It is especially because many people with PCOS are also insulin resistant. 2. Incorporate Healthy Fats: Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fish and walnuts, can improve insulin sensitivity and reduce inflammation. 3. High-Quality Protein: Foods like lean meats and lentils can aid in weight management and keep hunger at bay. 4. Mindful Dairy Consumption: Some dairy products may worsen PCOS symptoms. Consider moderation or alternatives such as plant-based milks like almond milk, soy milk etc. 5. Anti-inflammatory Foods: Embrace foods like berries, nuts, and olive oil to combat inflammation linked to PCOS. 6. Do seed cycling: It is extremely useful. Contact me to know more. 😊 👓 Lifestyle Matters Too Balancing diet with regular exercise, stress relief, and sufficient sleep is crucial. There’s no one-size-fits-all diet for PCOS, making personalization key. You must work with healthcare providers such as a doctor and a nutritionist to tailor your diet to your needs, focusing on whole foods and balanced nutrition. In adopting these principles, you're not just managing PCOS symptoms—you're stepping towards a healthier and happier you overall! PS - Which other diseases or disorders do you want me to cover in terms of nutrition? They could be either physical health issues or mental health issues. PPS- You can DM me to create a personalised holistic health plan for you with focus on nutrition! 📔 I’d be happy to help 😊 For more, keep FOLLOWING Aditi Kulshrestha, Nutritionist, Psychologist and Face Yoga Teacher!
