While no single food can cure cancer, new research highlights that certain natural foods may help the body fight cancer cells and lower the risk of the disease. According to a recent Knowridge Science Report, berries such as blueberries and raspberries are rich in antioxidants that protect cells from damage. Cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and kale contain sulforaphane, a compound shown in lab studies to destroy cancer cells.
Garlic and onions, with their sulfur compounds, may slow tumor growth, while green tea’s catechins could reduce inflammation and hinder cancer cell spread. Tomatoes, especially when cooked, offer lycopene, which may help protect against prostate cancer. Turmeric’s curcumin also shows anti-cancer potential.
Experts emphasize that a diet full of colorful, plant-based foods supports immune health and may reduce cancer risk over time. For more, read the full article at Knowridge.
