Using Superfoods The Right Way - Smart Ways To Protect Against Cancer http://melendezmelendez3.bloguetechno.com/Using-Superfoods-The-Right-Way-Smart-Ways-To-Protect-Against-Cancer-1319395 http://www.indyarocks.com/blog/3766298/Best-Superfoods-For-Cancer---3-You-Should-Know-About Whether you are currently healthy or not, you have a lot to gain by eating more superfoods. It is become more and more accepted that eating superfoods can help maintain the body ward off disease and stay healthy. What makes plant based superfoods so potent is the number of phytonutrients they contain. Phytochemicals or phytonutrients are simply the powerful nutrients found in many plants. It's fun researching and learning about superfoods because these foods are very tasty and keep you in top nutritional shape. Cancer researchers have been studying berries and their effect on cancer using science for decades. Although these small fruits are not large in size, they possess antioxidant and nutrients in mass quantities. The so-called superfoods are usually the berries that have a darker color, and usually cancer fighting nutrients as well. Since vegetables that are dark are packed with nutrients, dark berries, having the most nutrients, seems to be the logical choice. Anytime there is a high amount of stress, cell damage can increase due to the oxidative stress caused by your body. By ingesting black raspberries, the effects of oxidative stress can be greatly reduced or diminished. You need to look at berries as a group, as not one particular very is not much more effective than the other. Although kumquats have been around for thousands of years, they are not publicized very much at all. Just like a kiwifruit, the kumquat can be ingested, along with the rind, with no problems at all. When you eat a fruit with a peel or rind, it should usually never be consumed. There are actually liminoids in the kumquat rind which can help you in many ways. Scientists that deal with in vitro research have shown that liminoids can prevent cancer from spreading. To be clear, in vitro means "in lab conditions", and this is where the data was gathered. People that hear this (even me!) will be happy about this research. Along with the liminoids, kumquats have many other essential ingredients that are good for your health. Everyone is familiar with raspberries and most people like them, and this fruit contains the valuable cancer fighting substance ellagic acid. You'll see that name pop-up in many discussions about cancer fighting superfoods. What ellagic acid does is target cancerous cells and accelerate cell death. Of course this substance leaves healthy cells alone to thrive and live. The ellagic acid will not be harmed even if you put raspberries in the freezer for a long time. In fact, any form of raspberries, such as jellies and jams, will still have ellagic acid present and you can reap the benefits. Your diet, and cancer, has been shown (in research) to be directly connected. Superfoods that have such powerful antioxidant properties cannot be pushed aside. When it comes to modern medicine, even they will admit that it is a good idea, when battling cancer, to eat superfoods as much as you can. There are many more medical conditions that can respond to a healthy diet of superfoods. Adding these foods to your diet can be very beneficial for you. It's a great idea, and everyone should do it.
