An optimal diet which includes cancer-fighting foods (fruits and vegetables) promotes cancer cell death and supports wellness. Learn which are the best foods to support quality of life, cancer prevention, and cancer survival.
#1 Red cabbage is full of anthocyanin, a type of antioxidant shown to prevent cancer by blocking tumor growth, reducing inflammation, and preventing the spread of cancerous cells
#2 Turmeric contains the active ingredient curcumin, which has been shown to decrease tumor size and fight colon and breast cancer.
#3 Flax seeds contain lignans, that may have an antioxidant effect and block or suppress cancerous changes. Moreover, these seeds are high in omega-3 fatty acids, that are believed to protect against heart disease and colon cancer.
#4 Black raspberries contain very high concentrations of phytochemicals called anthocyanins, that slow down the growth of premalignant cells and keep new blood vessels from forming.
#5 Broccoli is rich in anti-cancer compounds such as sulforaphane, diindolylmethane, and the element selenium.
#6 Garlic contains sulfur compounds which may stimulate the immune system’s natural defense against cancer and may also have the potential to reduce tumor growth.
#7 Red grapes (and red wine) are loaded with resveratrol, a strong antioxidant that inhibits cancer-cell growth and causes cancer cells to self-destruct.
#8 Ginger lowers blood sugar levels and contains gingerols, which have been shown to have effects on breast, prostate, leukemia, and other cancer cells.
#9 Carrots contain a lot of beta-carotene, that may help reduce a wide range of cancers including mouth, lung, stomach, throat, intestine, prostate, bladder, and breast.
#10 Tomatoes contain a high concentration of an effective antioxidant called lycopene, which according to research may help protect men from prostate cancer.
#11 Spinach is a storehouse of folate (also known as vitamin B9) and fiber – two elements that scientists believe are essential to cancer prevention.
#12 Apples contain epicatechin, quercetin, triterpenoids, and anthocyanins, that have strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties which help to lower the risk of cancer, particularly colorectal cancer.
#13 Chickpeas are able to provide plenty of dietary fiber and essential fatty acids which help provide protection against cancer growth before it starts.
#14 Pomegranates are an important source of antioxidants that work in a “seek and destroy” method, exclusively targeting the prostate cancer cells and not the healthy cells.
#15 Cauliflower not only contains antioxidants but also has sulfur-containing compounds that help fight against cancer.
Note - to lower your risk for many types of cancers, aim to build your diet around a variety of antioxidant-rich plant-based foods. Additionally, try to limit the amount of processed and fried (junk) foods, alcohol, and tobacco you consume as well as try to sleep at least seven hours per day and practice moderate exercise daily.
Thanks. That was our list of top and best cancer-fighting foods and spices.
