Here is this week’s powerful breast cancer fighting tip from Nikki Ver Steeg, a Registered Dietician, Certified Wellness Coach, and founder of Your Diet Designer, LLC .

Everyone is worried about getting sick as we head into flu season, so how is your immune system? Did you know that it is important to keep your immune system healthy to lower your risk of breast cancer? As we replicate cells every day, some of them are not “copied” right which results in an error.  When your immune system fails to recognize this error, it results in an excess growth of these cells, which is cancer. Promote a healthy immune system by limiting trans fats and processed foods. Kick up your immune system and fight disease, even cancer.
