these cancer-fighting diets have is that they are jam-packed full of whole foods. Whole foods being a combination of fresh fruits, veggies, grains, nuts, meats and dairy. The best diet you can go on is one that is full of whole foods – and stick to the very simple principle of the 80/20 rule. Eat 80 percent perfect, and then let the other 20 percent be your guilty pleasures. This gives you the perfect balance of harmony between your mind and body. When it comes to choosing what wholefoods you want to eat, don't get bogged down in all the new food phenomenon. Stick to what feels right for you. Remember everybody is built different, so there is no right or wrong diet – just listen to your own body, as it will tell you what you should eat. Everything should be eaten in balance, and no crazy obsessions. Just relax, listen to your body and let it take you on its own healing journey. If you obsess too much about what you can and cannot eat, you become mentally drained and unwell. The truth is your diet should be constantly evolving; you should be learning and trying new things all the time. ZENSPIRATION.ORG 35
