Le arance della salute. Sapienza with Airc Foundation
On Saturday, January 29, join Sapienza and the Airc Foundation's volunteers (AIRC Foundation for Cancer Research in Italy) in the main Roman squares. The twenty thousand volunteers of the "Arance della salute" initiative will distribute blood oranges grown in Italy, jars of honey, orange marmalade, a special booklet with healthy and tasty orange recipes by Chef in Camicia, GNAMBOX and Singerfood, and a detailed analysys on vegetarian diet to support cancer research.
Blood oranges contain anthocyanins, natural pigments with exceptional antioxidant powers, and about forty per cent more vitamin C than other citrus fruits.
Healthy and balanced nutrition can positively affect our lives and be a valuable ally if we also reduce risk factors such as sedentariness and obesity. A diet rich in whole grains, vegetables, fruit and legumes helps reduce the risk of developing various types of cancer. As recommended by the World Cancer Research Fund, it is important to limit animal fats (except fish) and simple sugars.
