Recent study into alternatives to cancer treatment has shown that these seven foods are effective in inhibiting the growth of cancer cells as well as in regressing already grown cancer tumors in the body.
These seven foods that we have access to on a daily basis can be a real life changer and a great alternative to chemotherapy treatment with all its adverse side effects.
So what are these seven foods?
These super seven foods are;
– Blueberries
– Black chocolate
– Curry
– Green tea
– Tomatoes
– Raspberries
– Red wine
How these seven super cancer prevention foods work
Scientific research into how to prevent the development of blood vessels to cancerous cells instead of chemotherapy which actually attacks the tumor itself but has debilitating side effects has led researchers to these seven foods.
It is well documented that these seven foods have very strong anti-angiogenesis properties that hinder the supply of blood to cancerous cells.
Angiogenesis involves the formation of blood vessels. It is very prominent at different stages in our lives such as in infancy.
Angiogenesis decreases as you grow older, but will take effect under certain situations such as when you get injury, in this instance the tissues and capillaries are restored by both inhibitor and activator molecules.
The activators tend to promote the growth of vascular cells which lead to the development of fresh blood vessels; however the inhibitors are more relevant.
What happens in cancer cells is they will send out the angiogenesis activators in order for them to develop blood vessels to the cancerous cells to supply these cells with nutrients.
Scientists have been able to synthesis drugs that inhibit angiogenesis but with the frequent consumption of these seven foods your body will build these inhibitors naturally and help in curbing the development of cancerous cells.
Let’s take a look at these seven foods;
Blueberries and Raspberries
They are useful in combating oxidative stress as well as inhibiting the development of cancerous cells by curbing angiogenesis.
Black chocolate
Your sweet tooth may actually be beneficial to you, provided your choice of sweet is black chocolate. It will help with your heart function, improve your mood and also to combat malignant cancer.
Curry
This spice is great for dissolving fat in your body. It also will help inhibit angiogenesis and drastically reduce the spread and growth of cancerous cells.
Green tea
This tea is also a great anti-oxidant and detoxifying herb. It will help fight malignant cancer as well.
Tomatoes
Tomatoes will help dissolve fat and make it easy for your digestive tract to absorb the fat. It is also rich in lycopene – a very potent anti-angiogenesis.
In a study conducted recently it was discovered that subjects that consumed cooked tomatoes or tomato sauce at least four times in a month were able to reduce their risk of prostate cancer by as much as 50%.
Red wine
Resveratrol is an anti-oxidant derived from the skin of grapes it is very potent against viruses, fungi and bacteria.
About 225ml of red wine is said to give approximately 640 mcg of resveratrol, it is recommended that you consume about 200-600 mcg daily.
Red wine also has several ingredients that are beneficial to your body such as in boosting glucose tolerance in diabetics, promoting good heart functions and inhibiting angiogenesis.
