Diet is of paramount importance for those afflicted with cancer. The quality of the foods we eat has a profound influence on the proper functioning of our bodies. Here is a general snapshot of foods that fight cancer.
Diet – Raw vs. Cooked.
It has been said that in order to be alive one must eat “live foods”. Live foods contain valuable life giving enzymes that are destroyed in cooking. These foods include fresh raw vegetables and fruits as well as raw seeds and nuts.
The greater the percentage of your diet is composed of these foods, the healthier you will be. A plant based rather than animal based diet is naturally high in fiber and low in fat, which are two essentials in the fight against cancer.
Diet – Acid vs. Alkaline
A good natural cancer fighting strategy is to starve cancer cells by not supplying them with food they need to replicate. Cancer cells flourish in an acid environment. The consumption of meat produces acid so it is best to avoid this source of protein.
Add flaxseeds to the diet.
Flaxseeds contain omega 3 fatty acids and lignans which may reduce certain types of cancer. The experts recommend 25 grams of ground flaxseeds per day.
Add Wheatgrass to the diet.
Wheatgrass contains many nutrients that are cancer fighting. It has phytoceuticals which build immunity, which is critically important in cancer. In addition it provides more oxygen to the cells through chlorophyll, which is a powerful tool against this disease.
Foods to Avoid
Avoid white sugar. Cancer cells require much more glucose than normal cells, so the elimination of refined sugar is strongly recommended. Avoid MSG and as many food additives as possible. The more natural the diet, the better.
Another harmful food is trans fats. The consumption of trans fats hinders the adequate oxygenation of cells, thus causing cancerous cells to increase.
As you can see, there are indeed foods that fight cancer in a very significant way.
If you or a family member has cancer, I so strongly recommend that you read the ebook “Fight Cancer Through Powerful Natural Strategies”. It gives information on cancer diet that could very well significantly change the course of your disease.
