Overall, the current guidelines emphasize a healthy lifestyle pattern, rather than individual factors, for cancer prevention. There is an enormous body of literature accumulated over the years with some times inconsistent findings linking specific nutritional factors and cancer, as well as a lot of misinformation propagated through social media.

I have been fortunate to participate in this process with the American Cancer Society, and the World Cancer Research Fund International/American Institute for Cancer Research.
