7 Food Secrets Every Cancer Patient Should Know

I am often asked if good nutrition can help a person once they have cancer.

Of course, my answer is YES....YES....YES.

This might seem like an odd question, but nearly ALL oncologists will tell cancer patients not to take vitamins and/or eat raw fruits and vegetables while taking chemotherapy because it will interfere with the chemo.

Isn't that odd? How can you possibly look someone in the eye and tell them NOT to eat fruits and vegetables and/or take vitamins.

Here are the nutrition tips EVERY cancer patient should know. And, these tips would be good to follow to PREVENT you from getting cancer.

1) WHITE food FEEDS cancer! No sugar; no flour; no pasta; no rice; no potatoes; no cookies, cakes, crackers, etc.

2) Mushrooms are useful for treating cancer. They are rich in germanium, which aids in oxygenating cells. Cancers can't thrive in an oxygen-rich environment.

3) Beets are great for cleansing the liver and blood. (Roots and Tops) Juicing beets is often used as a cancer treatment protocol in Asian communities. Pickling beets in apple cider vinegar is also very helpful.

4) Onions are rich in the potent anti-cancer compound, quercetin. One onion daily inhibits malignant cancer cell growth. And....cooking the onion does not destroy the beneficial properties of quercetin.

5) Eggplants contain bioflavanoids known to inhibit uterine
cancer growth.

6) Bell peppers are rich in vitamin C. They improve the appetite of cancer patients and aid in digestion of important nutrients.

7) Cabbage has been recommended by the National Cancer Institute for cancer prevention. They contain dithiolthiones, compounds which have anti-cancer properties. In addition, cabbage has indoles, which protects against breast and colon cancer.

If you STAY AWAY from WHITE foods and increase the 6 foods listed above, you will go a long way in improving your odds against cancer.
