Cancer and Diet
Cancer and dietThere has been some evidence to suggest that certain foods may help prevent cancer. These are mainly plant or cereal based.
Some anti cancer foods:
Tomatoes ,Chillies / Peppers, Green Tea ,Avocados, Broccoli, Cabbage, Cauliflower, Garlic, Carrots, Grapefruits, Grapes, Mushrooms, Nuts, Papayas, Seaweed, Soy
Tomato
Recent study suggests whole tomatoes offer better protection from prostate cancer than lycopene supplements alone. Lycopene is an antioxidant compound that gives tomatoes and certain other fruits and vegetables their color. People who have diets rich in tomatoes, which contain lycopene, appear to have a lower risk of certain types of cancer, especially cancers of the prostate, lung, and stomach.
Fish
One portion of fish every other day can reduce cancer risk compared with less than one a week. Some benefits with fatty fish (eg, salmon, mackeral, herring, sardines) include reduced prostate cancer risk as discovered in a trial carried out by Swedish researchers.
Spices
Chillies contain capsaicin which is good for the body. In addition, it is also a good source of Vitamin C. Garlic can protect against stomach cancer by fighting against bacteria called Helicobacter pylori.
Probiotics
Yogurt and milk fermented with probiotic bacterial cultures may play a role in the prevention and even treatment of some gut inflammatory diseases, which could be related to the onset of certain cancers (eg, colon cancer).
Red Meat
There is some evidence to suggest a high intake of red meat and processed meat may predispose to cancer, especially bowel and prostate related cancers. However, red meat also contains good quality protein, vitamins and minerals. The rule of thumb is to limit intake to approximately 3 oz per day.
