A groundbreaking 13-year study has uncovered that the diet — heavy on fish, olive oil, and vegetables, — can help cancer survivors live longer.

They also had a 60% drop in the the specific risk of heart-related mortality following treatment.
Researchers in Italy uncovered their findings after studying 800 cancer survivors in the years after they received a clean bill of health. They kept track of their dietary habits over a 13-year span, starting in the late 2000s.
