Texas Oncology helps patients fight cancer with leading-edge technology and advanced therapies, but the first step to fighting cancer starts at home with a healthy lifestyle.

According to the World Cancer Research Fund, healthier lifestyles and better diets could prevent up to 2.8 million cases of cancer each year.

This holiday season Texas Oncology is encouraging people to make small changes that could result in big health payoffs. To make it easy, Texas Oncology has introduced its Healthy Holiday Recipe Collection, which offers healthy recipe ideas—including Merry Mulling Mix, an easy-to-make, healthy alternative to high-calorie punches and sodas.
