from Better Than Before Breast Cancer with The Breast Cancer Recovery Coach · host Laura Lummer
Can you keep eating dairy or sourdough bread during breast cancer recovery—or do they need to go? In this episode, I walk you through the confusing world of food myths and metabolic health, exploring: The difference between A1 and A2 dairy What the research says about dairy and cancer risk Whether sourdough bread is truly blood sugar–friendly How gluten impacts gut health (and what zonulin has to do with it) And the truth behind the "toast your bread to reduce carbs" trend Whether you love yogurt or can't part with crusty sourdough, you'll leave this episode with clarity—not guilt. 🧪 Featured Studies: Loma Linda Dairy & Breast Cancer Study (2020): https://doi.org/10.1093/ije/dyaa007 Meta-analysis on Dairy and Cancer Risk (2021): https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8520314/ WCRF Cancer Prevention and Dairy Review (Non-Industry Funded): https://www.wcrf.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Meat-fish-and-dairy-products.pdf Toasting & Glycemic Response Study (Oxford Brookes, 2008): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17426743/ 🎧 Listen now and learn how to make nourishing food choices based on your body, not food labels or fear.
