Healthy Eating and Active Lifestyle After Bowel Cancer

HEAL – Healthy Eating and Active Lifestyle project has been developed to help people along their journey when experiencing cancer. 

Healthy eating and active lifestyle can make a big difference to your health and wellbeing. This is particularly important after cancer treatment. A healthy lifestyle can help reduce risk of developing cancer again. Also, it can reduce risk of other diseases and further health complications.

 

To make new lifestyle habits can be challenging. But it is more achievable when you have access to the right tools and support. HEAL ABC is a unique resource that can help you along your way. It was developed by a dedicated team of nutritionists, dietitians and psychologists with the guidance of people who have had bowel cancer and healthcare professionals.

 

We hope you find it useful on your journey to a healthier lifestyle.

 

Best wishes from our team.
