Just before her last radiation session, the nutritionist advised Kelly about what the optimum diet for her was. The diet needed to be heavy in legumes, whole grains, bioflavonoids (dark green vegetables) and antioxidants. The nutritionist also told her to hold down her consumption of alcohol. In fact, she should not have more than two glasses of wine a week. An organic dairy diet was also important for estrogen-sensitive cancers like Kelly had.
