Julie Lanford MPH, RD, CSO, LDN, is the Wellness Director for Cancer Services, a non-profit in Winston-Salem, NC. She is a registered dietitian, licensed nutritionist and board-certified specialist in oncology nutrition with 15 years experience working in oncology.

Lanford developed www.CancerDietitian.com, a healthy living web site for Cancer Services that translates evidence-based nutrition guidelines into consumer-friendly messages for everyday life. The site reaches thousands of people across the country who are interested in cancer nutrition and the most current topics on healthy lifestyle in our culture.

On September 11, 2021, Julie presented to participants of our cancer prevention and nutrition/culinary medicine via Zoom from North Carolina. This was followed by a fun experience of team cooking in the kitchen. The day ended with eating the delicious dishes that were made in a family style environment. The conversation flowed as we enjoyed an engaging, intellectual and educational discussion about cancer prevention quality in foods, like phytonutrients, and how we can improve overall quality of life with a plant slant (Mediterranean diet).

Sponsored by grant funding from the American Cancer Society & Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
