Cancer is one of the leading causes of death, control depends mainly on the detention time, so our best ally is prevention. Tumor, either benign to malignant, is a condition that can be treated with natural alternatives, either in combination with other treatments or medicines as natural medicine does not interfere with any other medical alternative cancer and can certainly support form positive patients in their healing process. Copa rota, good nutrition is essential to prevent disease or to support the recovery process.
That's all that you have some recommendations, there are some foods in our diet containing valuable molecules "anticancer", as they have antimicrobial, antifungal that provide protection against potential attackers. These foods are known as antitumor or curative properties:
Garlic: is an excellent microbicide sanitizer, decongestant and pituitary toner, is effective in gastric secretion rich in iron, is a vasodilator, and is an excellent regulator of regenerative cell functions. All these properties can help cure and prevention of cancer. For its healing effects are maximized, should take a clove of garlic (if very large half or quarter, to avoid saturating the liver) fasting, with half a glass of warm water. It must rest of this taken once or twice a week.
SOURSOP (GRAVIOLA): It has been recognized this fruit to have potent anti-cancer properties. It has recently been found that guanábana has acetogenins, a compound may have anticancer effects, as selectively attacks tumor cells form (these studies have only been tested on animals, yet human), inhibiting the growth of cells cancer and tumor. Most of the active principle is found in the leaves, so that consumption is suggested as a tea.
WHOLE GRAINS: Include fiber in your diet can help significantly reduce colon cancer. The GI fiber speeds and reduces the contact time of potential toxic elements, also entrains a portion of the bile salts that are produced in the liver from cholesterol, since this is positive when the bile salts are in solution free favors tumor growth, function as substrate. Avoid refined cereals, sugar and obstructing the proper functioning of the body.
EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL: This oil and olives contains substances that act as antioxidants: tyrosol, a simple phenol that has been proven to prevent tumor growth in animals with breast cancer. Secoiridoids and lignans, are antioxidants that are present in the food, that have been associated with slower growth of cancer cells. Furthermore, extra virgin olive oil (or cold pressing) in the diet prevents altered levels of steroid hormones, this hormone dysfunction is associated with breast cancer.
BROCCOLI: to be rich in beta carotene and isothiocyanates, excellent antioxidants that inhibit free radicals, is a food that can help combat the presence of tumore and slows the onset of cancer.
COLES AND CAULIFLOWER: contains coumarins, cinnamates, lactones and isothiocyanates that are active substances against cancer, because it increases the latency periods of cancer.
SOJA or SOYA: phytoestrogens called isoflavones have that block angiogenesis (the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow) so it is a powerful weapon against variety of cancers. Soy also contains unsaturated fatty acids, which have been identified as essential to combat survival and spread of abnormal cells.
TOMATO and PIN: rich in antioxidant lycopene substance that acts to protect cells from oxidative stress body (who is one of the main causes of cardiovascular disease, cancer and aging). Lycopene it modulates the cells responsible for cell cycle regulation and result in regression of certain cancerous lesions in the digestive tract. It acts as a neutralizer oxide and peroxide, attenuating oxidative damage to tissues.
PROBIOTICS PRODUCT: like homemade yogurt, kefir, products with lactobacilli, etc. Suggested consuming probiotic nonfat yogurt and, since they are substances which retain the barrier of the intestinal tissue and stimulate the immune system.
ONION: rich in antioxidants and sulfur oils have powerful cleansing, antibacterial, astringent, bactericidal, cardiotonic, etc., making it an excellent food to eradicate and prevent cancer.
Legumes (beans, lentils, peas, GARBANZOS): these grains contain substances that inhibit the action of protein degrading enzymes, prevent the formation of cancer cells and can reduce tumor size. In preparing these foods we suggest you change twice the cooking water (and will be better tolerated at gastrointestinal level) and avoids the use of meats (especially smoked) in its preparation.
Blackberries, strawberries, raspberries and blueberries: contain ellagic acid reduces tumor growth (at least experimentally) also removes toxins from the cells, blocking carcinogens and stimulates the elimination of these toxins to prevent genetic mutations DNA with potentially dangerous.
BITTER CHOCOLATE: contains glucaric acid, detoxifies the body and helps eliminate xenoestrogens from chemicals in the environment.
CARROT: is one of the vegetables that have more healing properties in the body. If you suffer from cancer or tumors, feel free to take one or two glasses of fresh carrot juice, daily. It needs to be freshly made to retain all its medicinal properties.
EGGPLANT: rich in anticioninas help against cancer
Antitumor HERBS:
And foods, it is well known that plants possess potent activity either as stimulating the immune system and, in this case, as inhibitors of tumor growth. Some of these plants are:
GREEN TEA: contains numerous polyphenols including catechin, which inhibits the formation of new blood vessels by cancer cells and prevents the spread of cancer. Besides green tea contains Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a substance that surrounds and nourishes all body cells, its function is to sound the alert when foreign cells entering the tissues, also blocks the receptors that signal emitted training new blood vessels. These results are important in breast cancer, leukemia, prostate, kidney, skin and mouth; wherein tumor growth is inhibited.
CAT'S CLAW: used very effectively to combat tumors and cancer, or any "lump" or bump. Is effective immune stimulating properties, and has the ability to significantly increase the activity of macrophages, cells capable of devouring our foreign elements, including abnormal cells.
MILK THISTLE: recently found that milk thistle may be helpful to prevent and fight cancer. Without vitro study has shown that this plant can stop the growth of cancer cells, not killing them, but causing them to behave like normal cells, especially prostate cancer, where the study was accentuated. In addition, milk thistle may potentiate the effect of drugs and medications used to cure cancer also protects the kidneys from the harmful effects of chemotherapy.
HIERBABUENA, thyme, marjoram: rich in terpenes, which act on certain tumors reducing their expansion or causing apoptosis (cell death).
ROMERO: contains carnosol, a substance that affects the ability of cancer cells to invade nearby tissues.
And CELERY Parsley contains apigenin, substance that inhibits the creation of blood vessels necessary for the tumor.
Finally we give some tips power to reduce the risk of some cancers BBC: health nutrition dietary_cancer
1. Check obesity and maintain a healthy weight. Obesity is associated with increases in certain cancers (eg. Colon).
2. Eat fruits and vegetables. At least five or more pieces a day.
3. Eat more fiber. At least 18 grams per day.
4. Eat less fat.
5. Avoid eating too much red meat.
6. Drink alcohol in moderation.
