Cancer Fighting Foods for Everyday People - Carol Patterson Two-time Cancer Survivor

Processed foods are killing people all over the world in epidemic proportions. Cancer-Fighting foods are as close as your local grocery store.

A wide variety of foods is needed to make a lifetime cancer-free diet. Learning how to cook with this wide variety of foods became a challenge. Sheer determination helped to create a cancer-cure diet.

What researchers are finding is that “we are what we eat!” As Americans, our diet has changed from the times when we ate mainly farm-fresh foods. We go to the grocery store and buy many processed foods which have preservatives and are generally not healthy for us.

The way in which foods are processed many times leaves toxic chemical residual. Tiny portions of toxic chemicals every day for years can and does cause cancer. Scientists throughout the world are researching the reason why the world is experiencing high spikes in cancer and heart disease. The foods we eat each day are part of the problem.

On the other hand, there are many foods in our grocery stores which have natural antioxidants and the ability to fight off cancer as well as maintain normal body health. Once you know the rules, you will know how to play the game.

Here are the basic reasons why cancer disease has grown in our lifetime:

1. Americans eat too much food in general. Obesity is epidemic.

2. Americans eat too much meat and fat.

3. Americans eat too much sugar.

4. Americans eat too much salt.

5. The American diet lacks fruits, vegetables, and grains.

6. The American diet is comprised of up to 45% fats (30% is recommended).

The National Cancer Institute states that almost one third of all cancer deaths are food related. An anti-cancer diet is comprised of foods which are high in nutrition as well as anti-oxidants.

An "Anti-Cancer Diet” exhibits prompt results and cures cancer forever. Maintaining an “Anti-Cancer Lifestyle” is not difficult when the food looks and tastes good.
