What Are The Best Cancer Fighting Foods?

The Bad News
I cannot remember a time when cancer has been such a horrible threat in our American society. The sad reality is that in the American diet there are too many cancer causing foods. I recently watched the video below about the rate of cancer in America as compared to other countries around the world and I was shocked into stunned silence. I was sickened in my spirit when I learned the horrific truth and I had to ask.., Why? Of course the answer only God knows and someday all of that will be revealed. For whatever reason, call it greed or ignorance, we Americans are really suffering with this horrible blight! When I go to church and prayer requests are spoken out loud - a shudder of fear runs through my body when I hear the word - cancer, why? These things should not be!

The Good News
The good news is that we have at our disposal the knowledge we need to make things right in our own bodies. We just need to put that knowledge into action.

The Challenge
How much broccoli can you eat? What about cauliflower or spinach? I love all of these vegis especially broccoli. They are so good; more than taste good they are good for our bodies. These are just a few of the many "super-foods" available to us that do a wonderful thing - - they fight free radical cells in our bodies, the cells which cause cancer! The challenge comes in getting enough of these cancer fighting fruits and vegetables into our diet.

Here is a list of cancer fighting fruits and vegetables:

Broccoli (part of the Cruciferous vegetable family)
Cauliflower (part of the Cruciferous vegetable family)
Spinach
Beets
Red Beet Root
Acerola Berry
Tomato, (rich in the antioxidant Lycopene)
Barley Grass
Wheat Grass
Carrots

Amazingly enough the American diet has become so disease causing that it is no wonder why we are suffering from so many ailments. Step back in time about 50 years ago and the picture tells a different and far more healthy story of the American diet; step back another 50 years and you will begin to see just how far we have gotten off track from eating just plain old good wholesome food!

Although, for most people it is quite difficult these days to afford to eat a pristine and healthy diet, it is wise to avoid processed foods when ever possible. It has been said the best place to shop in the grocery store is along the edges where you can then avoid many of the processed foods.
