The Power of the Plate: Eating to Prevent Cancer
This program teaches you practical, everyday ways to help lower your cancer risk through nutrition. Starting with the basics of cancer education, and moving into nutrition and food, we will use simple, clear language so you can easily understand and apply the information. You'll learn which foods support your body's health and which ones to limit. Crossroads4Hope offers this program at no cost, as part of its mission to support you and your family through every stage of your cancer journey.

Identify at least three modifiable cancer risk factors (e.g., diet, alcohol, obesity, tobacco) and distinguish them from non-modifiable factors like age.
Apply at least one practical nutrition swap from the session to their own routine, demonstrated through the smoothie recipe activity.
