Wild Mushroom Risotto with Leek Purée & Walnut Crumble

June 04, 2025

Wild mushrooms are rich in β-glucans, immune-stimulating fibers shown to enhance recovery and support cancer therapy outcomes in clinical trials.

Leeks, part of the allium family, contain sulfides recognized for their protective effects against colorectal and stomach cancers.

Walnuts provide omega-3 ALA and antioxidants, contributing to reduced inflammation and improved overall cancer resistance.

You can find all of these mega cancer-fighting ingredients in this comforting dish. 😊
