Happy Living!

Fight Cancer on multiple levels:1. Pray 2. Prevention

We all know there are benefits to healthy eating - but what many may not realize is that a wholesome diet along with exercise and a healthy weight can prevent cancer. Approximately 35 percent of cancers are related to nutritional factors. To help prevent cancer, eat a wide variety of foods rich in nutrients that protect your body's cells from damage. Here are 10 for your consideration: 1. Grapefruit 2. Peanuts & Peanut butter 3. Berries 4. Sweet Potatoes 5. Wild Salmon 6. Ground Flaxseed 7. Teas 8. Cruciferous vegetables 9. Turmeric 10. Loads of Praise! Certain foods, eaten in the correct portions and frequency, can also provide cancer-starving benefits. Compliments of Dr. Oz, below are 5 foods to eat that can prevent cancer growth:1. Bok Choy: This type of Chinese cabbage contains brassinin; a powerful cancer-fighter, also found in broccoli, cauliflower and Brussels sprouts. Bok Choy should be eaten 3 times a week, in 1/2 cup servings to obtain its full benefits.2. Cooked Tomatoes have more cancer-fighting properties than raw tomatoes. Both contain the molecule lycopene, but heating the tomato changes its chemical structure and makes the benefits more readily available to your body. You should eat 2-3 (1/2 cup) servings of cooked tomatoes a week.3. Flounder: This fish is rich in omega-3 fatty acids and low in mercury. Three 6-ounce servings a week is ideal.4. Strawberries: The antioxidants in this berry help fight cancers. You should eat 1 cup a day, including the juice.

5. Artichokes contain 3 different cancer-fighting molecules.

Enjoy ¼ cup of hearts per day.
