Fueling Wellness: The Impact of Nutrition on Cancer Prevention and Treatment

You’ve probably heard the phrase, “food is medicine,” but what does that mean when it comes to cancer prevention and treatment? Today Dr. Jill Hamilton-Reeves is joining Dr. Roy Jensen in the podcast studio to discuss nutrition and how the food we eat could aid in cancer prevention, as well as some of her current research into nutrition and cancer treatment. Dr. Hamilton-Reeves is a member of KU Cancer Center’s Cancer Prevention and Control research program and co-leader of the cancer center’s Nutrition Shared Resource, which is a team of nutrition experts who help researchers evaluate the effects of nutrition and diet on cancer therapies and prevention.
