Guard Against That Cancer

Do you that you will guard yourself against cancer? If you take these foods, Try it today and boost your immunity.

Oranges and Carrots -  

Oranges and carrots are rich, respectively, in the antioxidants vitamin C and beta-carotene - which appear to protect cells by neutralizing free radicals, molecules that cause damage that can lead to cancer. A diet high in fruits and vegetables has been linked to reduced levels of lung and other cancers.

Tofu  -

The isoflavones contained in soy beans have a gently estrogen-mimicking effect in the body. This may help block the effects of stronger estrogens, both natural and those from environmental chemicals from sources such as plastics and pesticides. This may reduce the risk of hormone-linked cancers in both women and men.

Green Tea –

 Is a powerful antioxidant that appears to stop damage at a genetic level in lab cultures. In studies with animals it also stops tumors from forming their own blood supply network, which means they can’t grow. Green tea is lower in caffeine than black tea or coffee, but drinking large amounts can still lead to problems such as trouble sleeping and nausea

Garlic -  

The smelly compounds in garlic are potent anti-cancer agents. All of the onion family, including leeks and shallots, contain these compounds, too. In lab studies, chemically induced cancers were interrupted by the active compounds formed from allicin (which comes from garlic). Studies in humans show a lower risk of several common cancers in those who eat lots of garlic, to get the most out of garlic, chop or crush the clove and eat it raw or cook it lightly.

Whole-Grain Cereals  

Fiber found in whole-grain bread and cereal is important for digestive and hormonal health. The fiber gives the colon something "to work with" and also promotes activity of good bowel bacteria. Grains are rich in several other compounds that have been linked to reduced cancer risk

Yogurt –

Probiotics, the beneficial bacteria found in live yogurt, promote good digestive health and may boost the performance of the immune system. Regular yogurt intake has been shown to increase levels of immune anti-cancer compounds such as interferon and natural killer cells

Tomato Sauce –

The compound in tomatoes thought to be key is lycopene, a potent free-radical scavenger. Lycopene inhibits the growth of prostate cancer cells in lab studies and is associated with lower prostate cancer risk in men with high intakes of tomato products; blood levels of lycopene are much higher when tomatoes have been cooked than when eaten raw.
