biogenic salad, green tea, pumpkin
custard pie, and a tablespoon of olive oil.

unfriendly environment within your body - 2. AVOCADOS

radicals. The avocados weapon glutathione can fight

of cancers like breast, bladder, lung, mouth,
stomach, andprostate cancer.
This makes carrots an excellent addition to the
cancer-fighting team. - 5. CHILI PEPPERS &
JALAPENOS
Chili peppers and jalapenos are spicy and deadly.
Of course, they are only deadly for cancer-causing
substances. Ironic, since jalapenos are difficult to
stomach for some people. - 6. CAULIFLOWER, KALE,
BRUSSELS SPROUTS,
CABBAGE
These fearsome four contain two fantastic
antioxidants lutein and zeaxanthin. These
antioxidants not only take out prostate cancer,

free radicals. - 7. FIGS
Japanese researchers have discovered a super-
weapon contained within figs. Benzaldehyde has

carcinogens and slowing tumor growth. - 9. GRAPEFRUIT

the cancer-fighting team has stormed through.
Grapefruits do a great job cleaning up the mess
left behind by carcinogens. Grapefruit can also fight
the development of breast cancer. - 10. RED GRAPES
Unlike the slacker green and purple grapes, red
grapes use bio-flavonoids, the most powerful cancer
preventative in the business.

that releases cancer-causing enzymes. The best thing
of all, these little warriors can block enzymes that
cancer cells need in order to thrive. - 11. MUSHROOMS
Mushrooms may not be fruits or vegetables, but
theyre committed to proving that theyre just as
good. Mushrooms can round up multiplying cancer
cells with their lasso called lectin.

immune system. - 12. NUTS
Nuts are crazy about cancer suppression. The Brazil
nut has the added superpower of selenium, which
can fight prostate cancer. - 13. LEMONS AND ORANGES

and enhance the flavor of drinks. Lymphocytes are
cells that love to fight cancer. - 14. TEAS
Teas love to prevent cells from loving each other
and making baby cells. Teas are pro-abstinence
and anti-cell dividing superheroes. - 15. TOMATOES

assault free radicals and repair cellular damage
with their Vitamin C healing potions.
