Foods For Cancer: Including these 5 common foods in the diet can prove to be very beneficial in preventing cancer tumors from developing in the body.
The number of cancer-related deaths in India is increasing rapidly. According to a recent report published in the medical journal The Lancet, the number of cancer deaths per 1 lakh people in the country is expected to reach 64.7 in 2022, while by 2050 this figure is expected to reach around 109.6.
At the same time, a study by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) states that three out of every five cancer patients in the country die. According to statistics, India ranks third in the world in terms of the number of cancer patients. In such a situation, a healthy diet is very important to prevent it. Especially by eating these 5 foods daily, you can reduce the risk of many cancers for yourself.
Apple
Apples contain compounds called polyphenols, which help prevent inflammation, heart disease and infection. A particular polyphenol called florentin may inhibit the growth of breast cancer cells without harming healthy cells.
Broccoli
Broccoli contains a compound called sulforaphane, which is known to have anti-cancer properties. This compound works to prevent the growth of breast cancer and prostate cancer cells. Apart from this, high consumption of cruciferous vegetables like broccoli also reduces the risk of colon and rectal cancer.
Fatty Fish
Fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel and anchovies are rich in vitamin B, potassium and omega-3 fatty acids. According to research, omega-3s may reduce the risk of breast cancer, especially in Asian populations. A 2022 meta-analysis found a link between fish intake and a reduced risk of colorectal cancer.
Carrot
Eating carrots can reduce the risk of stomach, prostate and lung cancer. One study found that smokers who did not eat carrots were three times more likely to develop lung cancer than those who did.
Grape
Grapes contain an antioxidant called resveratrol, which is believed to be helpful in fighting cancer. Grapes and their seeds contain elements like flavonoids, phenolic acids, anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins and catechins, which are known to have anti-cancer effects.
