The Top 10 Foods That Fight Cancer
Cancer is a disease where some of the cells in your body get damaged and lose their ability
to die as part of their usual cycle.
These damaged cells start to grow uncontrollably and then spread to other parts of the body,
growing tumours which can threaten your life.
There are various reasons that your cells begin to malfunction, such as radiation, chemicals
sprayed on our food, genetic defects and consuming too much sugar.
GMO foods for example such as soy, corn, vegetables and leafy greens are often sprayed with chemical
pesticides which are cancer causing substances.
In today's video we will explore a list of the best 10 cancer fighting foods that you
can eat on a regular basis.
You will also learn a little bit more about what causes cancer, and how you can avoid
this awful disease.
What Causes Cancer
The most common cause of cancerous tumours is being exposed to chemicals from foods that
we eat.
Most conventional vegetables, grains, vegetable oils and plant based foods are sprayed with
pesticides, fungicides, herbicides, insecticides and other chemicals for easier harvesting.
Unfortunately these chemicals are very harmful to the small energy factories in our cells
(mitchondria).
These toxins become lodged within our fat cells and can remain with us for many many
years.
Cancer can manifest decades later, when the body gets older and becomes weaker from poor
nutrition.
Poor Nutrition
Eating too much sugar, alcohol and flour based foods like bread, cereal, biscuits, crackers,
pancakes and pastries all deplete your body of nutrients.
These and other refined foods use up the antioxidants in your body, which leads to a higher risk
of cancer.
Antioxidants like Vitamin C, E, Selenium and others are important to protect your cells
from getting damaged, so you can see why these refined foods raise your risk of cancer.
Genetic Mutations
Although some people are born with gene defects, most genetic mutations happen after you are
born.
Smoking, radiation, viruses, obesity, hormone imbalances, chronic inflammation and cancer
causing chemicals (carcinogens), can all cause some of your genes to mutate, and trigger
cancer in the body.
How Can I Prevent Cancer
Although we will always be exposed to some cancer causing substances, there are many
ways that you can help to prevent and also fight cancer by following a healthy lifestyle.
Let's take a look at 4 steps that you can take to protect yourself.
1.
Avoid GMO Foods Start purchasing foods that are certified
organic.
This means that they have not been grown with harmful chemicals, pesticides and fertilizers
that can damage your cells.
Organic foods also have more nutrients that support the normal functions in the body.
2.
Support Your Liver Your liver is an incredible organ which is
designed to break down harmful toxins into smaller particles and remove them from your
body.
If you have a poor functioning liver, then it is unable to do its job.
Consume cruciferous vegetables on a daily basis like brussels sprouts, kale, radish,
broccoli, and arugula, because these all help your liver to detox cancer causing substances
from your body.
3.
Stay In Shape Studies show that over 50% of cancer patients
are obese or overweight.
This is probably because chemicals become lodged within fat cells for many years and
cause damage internally.
Being overweight also overburdens your body, making it harder to move nutrients, oxygen
and blood to where it needs to be.
4.
Remove All Sugar Sugar is one of the main fuel sources for
cancer cells.
When you stop consuming sugar and foods that turn into sugar, you help to cut off the food
for your cancer cells, causing them to die.
Remove sugar, refined carbohydrates and grains from your diet, especially flour based foods
like bread, biscuits, crackers and pastries.
By following these 4 steps you can dramatically improve the health of your body because you
will be supplying the healing nutrients that the body needs.
You should also aim to keep refined foods and grains to a minimum, because these deplete
your nutrients and antioxidants which are needed to keep you healthy.
Top 10 Cancer Fighting Foods
Now, we will take a look at the best cancer fighting foods in the world.
These can be eaten to help prevent cancer, and also to help fight it alongside your regular
cancer treatments.
1.
Garlic Garlic is hands down one of the best cancer
fighting and preventative foods on the planet.
Fresh garlic contains allicin which has an immune boosting effect, helping your immune
system to kill cancer cells and prevent them from spreading.
Garlic also helps to keep your blood sugars under control.
2.
Broccoli Sprouts Eat broccoli sprouts in salads on a regular
basis to help protect your cells from becoming cancerous.
1oz of these is equivalent to eating 1.5 pounds of fully grown broccoli.
This is rich in sulforaphane, which helps your liver detox and remove harmful cancer
causing substances such as pesticides from foods that you have eaten.
3.
Cruciferous Vegetables The key to fighting cancer is loading up your
body with healing phytonutrients from cruciferous vegetables on a daily basis.
We recommend Broccoli, brussels sprouts, radish, collard greens, watercress, cabbage, kale,
bok choy, horseradish, arugula and beet tops.
These foods contain natural chemicals which cut off the blood supply to cancer cells.
(anti angionesis)
4.
Peppers Cancer cells live on two main fuel sources,
sugar and glutamine.
All types of peppers help to block cancer cells from living on glutamine.
So if you follow a no sugar diet such as keto, and eats lots of raw peppers, you are helping
to starve cancer cells of fuel so that they may die (apoptosis).
5.
Celery Celery contains a compound called apigenin
which is a powerful anti-inflammatory agent.
It has been shown in lab studies to trigger apoptosis, the natural program that tells
your cells when to die, so that they don’t become cancerous.
Celery also contains luteolin, which helps prevent the spread of cancer cells, and is
excellent for those undergoing chemotherapy.
6.
Ashwagandha This Indian herb has been used for thousands
of years to reduce stress in the body, balance hormones and support your immune system.
It contains asparaginase, a chemical which stops cancer cells from feeding on glutamine.
7.
Black Seed Oil Black seed oil is one of the most powerful
anti-cancerous foods on the planet and has been used for thousands of years by many cultures.
It contains an extremely potent compound called thymoquinone, which causes cancerous cells
to commit suicide, without damaging healthy cells.
We recommend 500mg 2x per day.
8.
Tomatoes We highly recommend eating organic tomatoes
regularly to support a healthy body.
These contain a powerful phytonutrient called lycopene, which becomes even more potent when
they are cooked.
Lycopene helps to prevent oxidative damage to your DNA, stopping your healthy cells from
becoming cancerous.
9.
Herbs & Spices You want to consume lots of fresh herbs and
also spices on a regular basis to help your liver detox harmful chemicals, fight off tumours
and protect against free radical damage to your cells.
Turmeric, Parsley, Basil, Rosemary, Oregano, Cayenne, Ginger & Cinnamon all contain powerful
anti-cancer properties, so make a habit of eating these consistently on a daily basis.
10.
Green Tea Drink green tea through the day or you can
get this in capsule form.
Green tea contains a compound called EGCG, which has been shown to kill certain cancer
cells in the body.
It helps to cut off one of the fuel sources for cancer cells called glutamine and regulate
blood sugars.
These foods are some of the most powerful anti-cancer foods on the planet and are also
some of the most nutrient dense.
Cruciferous vegetables in particular all contain healing compounds that cut off blood supply
to tumours in a process called anti-angiogenesis.
Try to consume as many of these foods raw and uncooked where possible, because cooking
can sometimes damage the important enzymes in the food that we need to support our liver
and gallbladder.
Fasting for Cancer
The very best thing you can do to protect against cancer is follow an intermittent fasting
plan.
This is a simple diet trick where you eat all of your calories in a 3-4 hour window
during the day, and allow your body to fast for the remaining hours.
This triggers autophagy, a process where your cells begin to clean our dead proteins and
tissues, recycling them and lowering the risk of them becoming cancerous.
Fasting also triggers the growth of new stem cells for your immune system, which aids in
killing off cancer cells on a regular basis.
It can also help with chemotherapy treatments, because fasting has been shown to make cancer
cells more sensitive, but also to strengthen your healthy cells.
Conventional Meat & Dairy
Unfortunately many of animal products we find on the market are injected with growth hormones
and fed GMO grains.
These can have a negative effect on your hormone balance over time, raising your blood sugars
and raising the risk of cancer.
We recommend switching out your meats for grass fed, grass finished varieties.
This is where the animals are allowed to graze as they would naturally on healthy grass,
making their meat very nutritious for humans.
We also recommend grass fed organic dairy products too such as milk, butter and cheese.
Stay away from vegetable oils and spreads too such as margarine, as these cause inflammation
to the cells of your body.
Opt for extra virgin olive oil or grass fed butter instead.
Summary
Cancer happens when your cells do not die properly, causing them to become immortal.
These cells start fermenting sugar and amino acids as fuel instead of oxygen, and they
begin to spread rapidly through the body.
You can help to protect against cancer by eating lots of none-GMO organic foods that
do not contain pesticides and harmful chemicals.
Cruciferous vegetables, herbs and spices in particular help to trigger natural cell death,
so that your cells do not become cancerous.
By eating the top cancer fighting foods we shared in this video, you can help to prevent
cancer by detoxing chemicals from your body, and also cutting off the fuel source to these
toxic cells.
