Breast and Other Anti Cancer foods~Tip #2

I am GUILTY of not writing in a while and will admit that "life" sorta got in the way but assure you that I have not stopped reading and learning new things about the foods we eat. I read something very interesting this morning in " Anti Cancer, A New Way of Life."  Research done at the University College of Medical Science in New Delhi showed that certain combinations of food can act as a synergy to protect the body from carcinogens, toxic substances present in the environment. Tested were selenium( found in organically grown cereals and vegetables as well as in fish and shellfish); magnesium ( found in spinach, nuts, hazelnuts, almonds and whole grain cereals); vitamin C (found in most fruits and vegetable); and Vitamin A (found in bright colored fruits and vegetables and eggs). On it's own, one of these components reduced the risk of breast cancer in female mice exposed to powerful carcinogens by 50% while four of these components combined reduced the risk by 90%. That's enormous!

I found this extremely interesting as they are foods that are easily available to consume on a daily basis and are great tasting! Remember, small changes to your diet can create amazing results. Start now in order to stop the risk of cancer before it even starts.
