Find Health with Natural Cancer Fighters

The world's most powerful cancer fighting substances are found right under our

nose in the form of natural plants, herbs, & spices. Some of the most potent of

these include cruciferous veggies (such as broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, kale,

bok choy, collards, & turnip greens among others), and they contain a wide array

of anti-carcinogenic compounds. Here are a few of them:

 

1.Indole-3 Carbinol: A powerful anti-oxidant that scavenges free radicals in the

body. It plays a very critical role in liver detoxification by inducing hepatic

cytochrome P450 monooxygenases. This reaction affects estrogen metabolism by

increasing the production of the chemoprotective estrogen 2-hydroxyestrone.

 

Additionally, it has been shown that I3C inhibits aflatoxin-DNA binding and

arrests the G1 growth phase of cancerous human reproductive cells. It has also

shown benefit in the treatment of Systemic Lupus, an autoimmune disease related

to faulty estrogen metabolism.

 

2.Isothiocyanates: (Phenethyl Isothiocyanate & Sulforaphane) Shown to induce

apoptosis (programmed cell death) in most cancer cells including drug-resistant

leukemia cells. The p53 gene is considered the " guardian of the genome, " due to

its role in regulating the cell cycle and suppressing cancer formation.

Increased levels of oxidative stress create a mutation of the p53 gene which

promotes cancer cell growth. Isothiocyanates have been shown to destroy mutant

p53 genes. Broccoli sprouts are considered the best source of these powerful

compounds.

 

3.Lutein & Zeaxanthin: These 2 carotenoid anti-oxidants are very similar in

chemistry and function. These 2 powerfully reduce oxidative stress, inhibit

cancer cell formation, and induce cancer cell apoptosis. These substances are

found in abundance in kale, spinach, brussels sprouts, & broccoli.

 

Action Steps:

1.Include a lot of cruciferous vegetables in your diet every day.

 

2.Sprouts are the most nutrient dense. Use broccoli sprouts regularly.

 

3.Steam, marinate, or lightly boil these veggies to break down fibrous outer

shell.

 

4.Marinate your veggies in apple cider vinegar for 30-60+ minutes to soften them

and maintain all essential nutrients in their raw form.

 

5.Terminal cancer or metastatic patients should focus mostly on juicing these to

maximize nutrient absorption while limiting digestive energy & stress.
