Fall is almost here, which means apple season is right around the corner. 🍎

If you’re ready for cooler weather, warm spices and all things apple, save The World’s Healthiest Apple Pie for your fall baking list.

This McDougall-friendly recipe from Chef AJ is made with oats, fruit, dates and warm spices instead of the usual butter, white flour and sugar.

It’s sweet, satisfying and wholesome enough for dessert or even breakfast.

Save it for the first crisp weekend of fall and let us know if you try it!

After just 14 days of eating a healthier diet, women’s blood was able to slow down breast cancer cells growing in petri dishes—killing 20–30% more cancer cells than before the diet change. Researchers linked this effect to lower levels of IGF-1, a cancer-promoting growth hormone.
People eating plant-based diets for 14 years have half the amount of IGF-1 in their bodies and more than twice the IGF-binding protein than those eating a more westernized diet.

What benefits do lifestyle changes have on breast cancer survival?

➡️ A significant breast cancer survival advantage is associated with eating five or more servings of fruits and vegetables a day and walking about 30 minutes a day, six days a week.
➡️ Randomized studies show that when people with early-stage breast cancer lower their saturated fat intake, there is an increase in breast cancer survival.
➡️ A higher fiber diet was associated with a 37% lower risk of dying from all causes put together and a 28% lower risk of dying specifically from breast cancer (among breast cancer survivors). There was about a 10% drop in death risk for every increment of 5 daily grams of dietary fiber.
🥦 That’s like 1 cup of oatmeal or broccoli, or just 1/3 cup of beans, a day.

The diet that helps prevent cancer also helps prevent heart disease. By living and eating more healthfully, we can increase our chances of living a long, healthy life.
