As researchers begin to realise that diet can beat cancer we reveal three of the best cancer fighting foods

Just 20 years ago it was rare to directly know someone battling with cancer. But nowadays, it's the opposite. It's uncommon to find someone whose life cancer hasn't had an effect on.

In fact, it's likely that it's you yourself. And you're looking for ways to beat cancer or lower your cancer risk.

That's why, today, we're revealing some of the best cancer fighting foods. And you can easily include them in your diet to keep yourself strong and healthy…

Research says plants provide the best cancer fighting foods

 
Recently we released an article about animal-protein and its link to cancer. It literally causes your body to become a cancer breeding ground if you eat a lot of it during middle age. And that’s why you need to eat more plant-based foods.
 
But even before the release of this research, studies were providing compelling evidence to suggest the benefit of plant-based foods for preventing and fighting cancer.
 
Here are three of them:
   
The real key to healing cancer is to wipe out the stealth disease lurking behind it...

I admit I was downright shocked when I found out that cancer isn't actually what kills most cancer patients! And I've been a doctor for well over 20 years - so not much surprises me anymore.

Even more astounding - this monumental discovery goes back to the 1970s when former US Air Force Dr Joseph Gold uncovered the REAL killer, a condition that no one in the medical field was even talking about!

That's right - the real culprit behind 3 out of every 4 cancer deaths isn't cancer at all. No! It's a syndrome you've probably never even heard of - called cachexia (pronounced "ka-kek-see-ah").

And if you or someone you love is battling cancer... You definitely can't afford to ignore what could very well be the only natural compound that stops this stealth killer in its tracks.
   
#1. Foods containing vitamin B
 
WebMD.com says those containing vitamin B are some of the best cancer fighting foods.
 
Vitamin B9, or folate as you might know it, is an essential nutrient in the war against cancer. This because it protects your DNA! It stops it from mutating into harmful gene sequences that damage your normal cellular functions and cause cancer.
 
You can get folate from lots of foods. Manufacturers even fortify products with it, like orange juice and cereal. But the most natural place to get it is in dark green leafy vegetables like spinach, kale, broccoli and even lettuce.
 
A study involving more than 27,000 male smokers showed just how important folate is in the cancer fight. Those who got their daily-recommended amount every day had a 50% lower cancer risk than men who didn’t.
 
#2. Garlic and other Allium vegetables
 
Pungent vegetables like garlic, leeks, onions and chives are all part of the Allium family. And they’re all part of the list of the best cancer fighting foods.
 
But garlic in particular, is what we’re focusing on here.
 
The National Cancer Institute says many studies reveal the benefit of garlic on different types of cancer. Especially those that affect the oesophagus, mouth, stomach and colon.
 
In fact, current research is underway with the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study that shows really promising effects of garlic on reducing your colon cancer risk.
   
Popeye ate Spinach to fight off harmful enemies proving there’s more to greens than meets the eye...
 
It’s not only Popeye who is entitled to fight off unwanted enemies using Spinach...
 
Like Popeye, you too can fight off harmful health enemies such as high cholesterol, cancer, heart disease, weight gain and many other unwanted health complications with the power of the right greens.

#3. Tea
 
As a South African, you’re in luck with this cancer fighting food!
 
While it’s not as prevalent as it is in the UK, we really enjoy our tea. And that’s a good thing, because tea – in particular black tea – is great for lowering your cancer risk.
 
Tea contains flavonoids called catechins, which are antioxidants that prevent inflammation.
 
Medicinet.com says these antioxidants might even be able to repair damaged DNA and thus prevent genes from mutating into cancerous ones.
 
As you can see, it’s not only easy to get your hands on three of the best cancer fighting foods available, it’s easy to include them into your everyday diet!
