Reading comprehension 4

Text A

A diet rich in fruits and vegetables is recommended by cancer experts as well as registered dieticians. The
American Cancer Society and The American Institute for Cancer Research recommend eating 5 or more servings of
a variety of vegetables and fruits each day to ensure that your cancer risk is as low as it can be. The United States
Department of Agriculture (USDA) 2005 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend 9 servings of fruit and
vegetable each day.

Nutrition experts say that variety is key, because different fruits and vegetables have different nutrients.
Plus, if you eat too much of one thing, you might get bored. One way to eat a variety of fruits and vegetables is to
eat foods with all the colors of the rainbow. Or try to eat dark green vegetables (think spinach, collard greens, or
kale) at one meal, and orange (carrots, sweet potatoes, or squash) the next.

Text B

No one kind of food or diet can ensure your immunity from cancer, but a simple change in your eating
habits can reduce the risk of cancer and can help you live longer if you have cancer.

Some foods, in fact, fight cancers by preventing formation of cancer-causing carcinogens and by keeping
them from reaching crucial body sites. Other foods keep cells that have exposed to cancer-causing agents from
turning malignant. Still others help heal malignant areas in the body.

The first step in waging your personal war against cancer is to choose a diet that is high in fiber and low in
fat, one that includes plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables a day and 6 to 11 servings of grains.
