Top 10 Anti Cancer Foods - YOU NEED TO EAT THESE!

Here are the top 10 anti cancer foods. Whether your are hoping to use nutrition for prevention of cancer, looking to optimize your diet to treat cancer, or prevent recurrence of a cancer, you should find this video helpful. We discuss the top 10 groups of foods that have been shown to have anti cancer properties. Many of them work to reduce oxidative stress, decrease inflammation, prevent growth of blood vessels that supply cancer cells, or directly killing cancer cells (apoptosis).

Much of the research behind nutrition and cancer are promising, but at the end of the day more research does need to be done. These foods are not meant to replace the treatment recommended by your providers, but to be considered as an adjuvant treatment your body can use to be as healthy as possible.

This is by all means not an extensive list. Mushrooms are probably the most popular one not mentioned in the video here.

Cruciferous Vegetables: Cruciferous vegetables, such as broccoli, cauliflower, and kale, are perhaps the most renowned for their anti-cancer properties. Cruciferous refers to plants of the cabbage family. These vegetables contain compounds called glucosinolates, which are metabolized into isothiocyanates during digestion. Isothiocyanates have been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer cells, prevent DNA damage, and induce apoptosis (cell death) in cancer cells. Additionally, cruciferous vegetables are rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals, making them an essential part of a cancer-preventive diet. With broccoli, specifically, there is a high amount of a phytochemical called sulforaphane, which is a cancer-fighting plant compound that has been linked to reducing the risks of prostate cancer, breast cancer, colon cancer and oral cancers.

Berries: Blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries, are packed with powerful antioxidants and phytochemicals. Anthocyanins, a group of flavonoids responsible for the vibrant colors of berries, have been found to possess anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-cancer properties. These compounds can neutralize harmful free radicals, reduce oxidative stress, and inhibit the growth and spread of cancer cells.

Tomatoes: Tomatoes are rich in lycopene, a carotenoid pigment responsible for their vibrant red color. Lycopene is a potent antioxidant that can protect cells from damage caused by free radicals.

Green Tea: Green tea has been enjoyed for centuries and is renowned for its numerous health benefits. It contains a group of polyphenols called catechins, particularly epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which possesses potent antioxidant and anti-cancer properties.

Garlic and Onions: Garlic and onions belong to the Allium family and contain sulfur compounds, such as allicin and quercetin. These compounds have demonstrated anti-cancer properties by inhibiting tumor growth, inducing cell death, and preventing the formation of new blood vessels in tumors.

Leafy green vegetables: Leafy green vegetables, such as spinach, kale, and Swiss chard, are rich in essential nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. They are also excellent sources of fiber and chlorophyll, which contribute to their anti-cancer properties.

Walnuts: Walnuts are a nutrient-dense tree nut known for their rich content of omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and fiber. The omega-3 fatty acids found in walnuts, particularly alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), have demonstrated anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties.

Flaxseeds: Flaxseeds are small seeds packed with a variety of beneficial components, including omega-3 fatty acids, lignans, and fiber. Lignans, in particular, have been shown to possess anti-cancer properties by interfering with hormone-related cancers, such as breast and prostate cancer.

Green Leafy Herbs: Certain green leafy herbs, such as parsley, cilantro, and basil, are not only flavorful additions to dishes but also provide anti-cancer benefits. These herbs contain a wide range of bioactive compounds, including flavonoids, carotenoids, and volatile oils, which have shown potential in inhibiting cancer growth and reducing inflammation.

It's great to see a doctor educating people on cancer fighting foods instead of medication. Thanks doc!

I switched to a plant based diet 1 month ago and the cancerous tumor shrank from 8.1cm to 6.6 cm. That's 1/2 inch! Without any kemo! I am sticking with this diet.

I think cutting out sugar is the most important thing you can do for health

[kokchaitan]

Cook own foods. Outside foods contains delicious but unknown ingredients. Safer to eat at home.

[CancerRemission]

Yes! Great video. Cancer cells thrive in an inflammatory environment. I wish more doctors were as knowledgeable about cancer nutrition and able to incorporate it into their practice. Nutritional education should be part of the treatment care plan for all cancer patients.

As a Registered Dietitian I was honestly reluctant to watch the video because I have been disappointed by quite a few other providers. This time I was pleasantly surprised. Excellent explanation and exactly what I share with my clients. Thank you for providing this useful information to the public!

My father had cancer. He had surgery and they said it could come back. I made him smoothies with flaxseeds chia seeds blueberries strawberries bananas and walnuts. He loved them and was cancer free for 8 yrs before passing. He had to go to the hospital and i think they gave him the vaccine against his will. He died a couple of days after going to the hospital.

working in grocery retail. you notice the different types of bodies people have relate directly to what they have in their basket. the healthier looking people always have veggies and fruits in their cart. the not so healthy and grumpy people always have everything but what your body needs like sodas, candy, chips, ice creams and frozen foods. whats sad too is their kids are victims to their parents horrible diet. then you hear people say the poor stay poor mainly because the food is keeping them poor and unhealthy and easily sick or prone to a variety of health accidents and troubles. they spend so much money on "cheap processed foods" compared to veggies and that sort of foods. it not only will keep you healthy but change your whole body for the better. and it all starts with food. or ends because of poor food choices. you are what you eat.

My wife is the greatest cook ever. We eat no processed foods, we eat a lot of fresh veggies. I've cut way down on sugar and starches. And we definitely avoid soy.
