Suggested Cancer Fighting Foods and Supplements

I found this site today while looking up what other supplements I should be considering. the good news is that I already am taking most of these. I will have to do research on the rest of them and give the list to HunePants to explore as he is the best researcher int he house and knows more about the herbs and things than I do because his family has a Health and Wellness shop in Racine, Wisconsin called Sheepish www.sheepish.us if you want to check it out. Here is the info I gathered from the site linked at the bottom off of Cancer Tutor...

No more than 25-30 percent of a person's diet should consist of foods high in Vitamin K, which include:

• broccoli,

• brussels sprouts,

• cabbage,

• collard greens.

• cucumber peel,

• endive,

• green scallion,

• lettuce,

• mustard greens,

• spinach,

• turnip greens,

• and watercress.

Garlic should be avoided for other reasons. Onions should be eaten in moderation.

While proteolytic enzymes are blood thinners, it is best not to try to balance blood-clotting foods and blood thinners. It is best to use moderation on both sides of the issue.

With regards to a cancer treatment, every food that we eat or drink can be categorized into categories:

• Foods that feed and strengthen the cancer cells and/or the microbes in the cancer cells and body. Examples would be refined sugar (e.g. see: Challenge Cancer Website), refined flour, soda pop, dairy products, etc.
• Foods that cause cancer (e.g. trans fatty acids [margarine, French fries and virtually every other processed food you buy], aspartame [Diet Coke, NutraSweet, Equal, etc.], MSG, polyunsaturated oils [e.g. corn oil], etc.)
• Foods that directly interfere with alternative treatments for cancer (e.g. chlorine, fluoride, alcohol, coffee, etc.)
• Foods that occupy and distract the immune system from focusing on killing the cancer cells (e.g. beef, turkey, etc.)
• Foods that contain nutrients that kill the cancer cells, stop the spread of cancer, or in some other way help treat cancer (e.g. purple grapes with seeds and skin, red raspberries with seeds, strawberries with seeds, broccoli, cauliflower, several herbs, carrots, pineapples, almonds, etc.)

If you are too weak to eat, there is an absolutely required food: organic beef broth.

Foods to Avoid :

Meat

Sugars and refined grains, including white flour

Salt (and salty foods – e.g. soy sauce)

Corn oil and most common cooking oils (use olive oil)

Margarine and other products containing hyrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils
