Hi guys,
I found this link about various fruits and vegetables that decrease the risks for certain cancers. This site goes into the biochemistry of what these fruits and vegetables do once ingested. For example uncooked carrots have alot of beta-carotene which reduces the risks of obtaining lung, breast, prostate, intestinal, stomach, throat, and mouth cancers. Carrots also contain another compound called farcarinol which have been shown to slow the growth rate of isolated cancer cells.
There are more fruits and vegetables such as tomatoes, broccoli, cassava, grapefruit, nuts, and grapes that this site writes about.
Enjoy the reading!
We should consider using some of these items in our cookbook [if this is still an option] or try to get the local stores to have them in stock.
ReplyDeleteI like that idea. Maybe we can even have healthy versions of cookies and cakes.
