My mother is still under treatment. She is going throuhg radiation. I did lot of research.At one point I found out that tofu is good for breast cancer. But ,another point people advice that we have to avoid tofu ... My mother use organic reduce fat milk. Some time she like use coffee mate. She drink coffee two or three time during the day. Is that ok if she use coffee mate ? Is there any specific coffee mate?

I haven't heard of coffee mate increasing cancer recurrence rates. Coffee creamers can have saturated fat and trans fat, though. The store name brands of powdered coffee creamer might be better than the brands at the office supply stores. See http://www.cspinet.org/nah/04_08/creamed.pdf; the article is almost 5 years old, so the info may no longer be correct. For what it's worth, I'm using unsweetened almond milk - truly zero trans fats, low calorie but unfortunately low protein.

If your mom really likes her Coffeemate, they now have an all natural version called Natural Bliss-just non-fat milk, cream, sugar, and natural vanilla. I switched over to it because I didn't like all the artificial stuff in the regular Coffeemate.
