Guest guest Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 It has been estimated that as many as one third of deaths due to cancer may directly relate to the type of food you eat. Unfortunately, the typical American diet consisting of highly processed food and fatty cuts of meat are exactly the type of food which may cause cancer. There are many foods and herbs available that contain an abundance of cancer fighting properties and should be included in as many meals as possible on a daily basis. Cruciferous Vegetables: Such as broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and cauliflower contain substances called sulforaphanes and indole-3-carbinols which help remove carcinogenic toxins from the body, thereby preventing cancerous cells from transforming into full blown tumors. When preparing these vegetables, either gently steam or stir-fry to avoid destroying their cancer fighting substances.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 I think the following are the most cancer-healing foods: Beverages: green tea; freshly squeezed ASPARAGUS, carrot, celery, BEET, apple, lemon, grape (w/seeds), wheatgrass, broccoli & green leaf juices; filtered water Foods: organic, raw/steamed, local-grown vegetables (ASPARAGUS, seaweed, leafy greens, kelp, onion/leek, rhubarb, BEET; broccoli, cruciferous & fermented vegetables); fruit (especially grape w/seeds, berries, goji, pomegranate, fig, plantain, kiwi, lemon); brown rice, barley, buckwheat; tempeh, miso; lentil, mung bean, & onion/garlic/broccoli sprouts; almond; walnut, FLAXSEED OIL w/COTTAGE CHEESE, grape leaf?

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 Have you tried a vitamix? It makes fresh vegetables and fruits into a smoothie and tastes good too?

He is now recovering from pneumonia cause by that problem. He has a mass in his right lung and another on his right kidney. He is 90 years old and won't have a biopsy done. If he can't eat these veggies, how can I get the cancer fighting properties in him? I really don't think I would like the taste of pureed broccoli, brussels sprouts or cauliflower. Especially if they would still retain a lot of texture.
