Cancer has a variety of causes, including malnutrition, exposure to toxins, nutritional deficiencies, and some degree of inheritance. A very important way to prevent and/or treat cancer is nutrition, by eating nutrient-rich foods and avoiding things that are known to increase the risk of cancer. But for many people, using modern food systems often looks great. The components of super-processed foods are blamed on health, that can cause cancer, diabetes and also plays the major role in kidney malfunctioning and bone loss. It just adds to the confusion and sometimes even the way we cook other healthy foods, it can be a big cause to produce cancer in body.

Unfortunately, there is need to force food manufacturers to produce food with ingredients that will not cause cancer, until then we need to avoid the worst foods and choose anti-cancer foods. Researchers have been aware of the dangers associated with some unhealthy habits and carcinogenic foods for decades, while others have simply become possible causes.

To overcome this disease, many cancer patients have been fortunate enough to use natural cancer treatment in combination with conventional medical treatments. Today, the initial combination of chemotherapy and nutritional therapy can save the lives of thousands of cancer patients. Such dueling can help support the whole body and mind in the healing process, which is sometimes long and very difficult. Of course, when it comes to cancer prevention, more research is still needed.

The 2010 EPIC survey on dietary factors associated with increased cancer risk showed a significant relationship between cancer risk and some low-nutrition intakes. Survey data published by the European Journal of Cancer show that there is a negative correlation between vitamin C intake, carotenoids, retinol, alpha-tocopherol and fiber, and the overall risk of cancer is higher. Natural foods on the local market can be used to destroy cancer cells and cause cancer cells.

Raw Garlic

Can also stimulate immunity, rich nutrition, lowering of blood pressure and cholesterol levels, and improve brain function, this is a natural remedy that has no side effect at all.

Broccoli contains a huge amount of phytochemicals and antioxidants, glucoraphanin and indole-3-carbinol, that have been shown to reduce the risk of cervical cancer, breast cancer, stomach cancer, and prostate cancer.

Catechins found in green tea have become the best food which in research found that can fight against cancer. Green tea is more resistant to free radical damage than vitamin C. In some research works, this lovely drink has been shown to reduce existing tumors and inhibit the growth of cancer cells.

Ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Food is thy medicine and medicine is thy food. Great quote from Hippocrates.

This is the way we should treat our food habbits. The big pharmaceutical industry will never let this common information to be reached by common people. So I am doing my part in creating awarness.

Hey @cryptokraze, great post! I enjoyed your content. Keep up the good work! It's always nice to see good content here on Steemit! :)

I think we all could eat a little bit better, at least I know that I could stand to eat more nutritious foods and exercise more. Knowing your family history and whether or not anyone in your family has had cancer could help in preventing cancer because you can get the necessary screenings done by your doctor. Great list of foods that help prevent cancer. I need to eat more strawberries and tomatoes. Thanks for sharing!

Garlic, Ginger and Onion are commonly used in my region and they are super foods in my point of views. Scientific studies have proved great results of these vegetables in preventing many diseases.

I agree with you on those foods being amazing for disease prevention. I use ginger and garlic in many dishes that I make for my family and I love putting ginger in green tea to take with me to work. I always feel off if I don't get my ginger tea, I feel like I have less energy during the day. Great suggestion!

Fight against cancer, for me, has been the fight about eliminating free radicals in the body. I've known of garlic and potatoes for years as effective in dealing with that.
