Ontario Division encourages people to eat more fruits and vegetables to help reduce their risk of developing cancer. Great Food Fast, the theme of National Nutrition Month in March 2000. focuses on quick and healthy food ideas for busy people. And what could be more healthy and quick to prepare than fruits and veg­ etables? The Canadian Cancer Society esti­ mates that 20 per cent of cancers could be prevented if every Canadian ate at least five servings of vegetables and fruit daily.The Canadian Cancer Society endorses Canada’s Guidelines for Healthy Eating, developed by Health Canada, which include these key points: • Enjoy a variety of foods. • Emphasize cereals, breads, other grain products, vegetables and fruits. • Choose lower fat dairy products, leaner meats and foods prepared with little or not fat. • Achieve and maintain a healthy body weight by enjoying regular physical activity and healthy eat­ ing. • Limit salt, alcohol ar.d caffeine.
