Green And Orange Vegetables For Cancer

Green vegetables such as spinach and broccoli and orange vegetables such as asparagus, peppers, and yellow beans can neutralize free radicals (molecules that accelerate the aging process). They also have various vitamins and minerals such as A, C, and K; folate; beta-carotene; minerals including calcium and magnesium; fiber. Recently scientists believe they can fight against Cancer, heart disease, stroke, obesity, and osteoporosis. Basically they contain lots of nutrition as long as you don’t fry them or smother them in fatty cheese sauces.

You know vegetables are packed with important nutrients, but they’re also a critical part of your body-changing diet. I like spinach in particular because one serving supplies nearly a full day’s vitamin A and half of your vitamin C. It’s also loaded with folate—a vitamin that protects against heart disease, stroke, and colon cancer. Dress a sandwich with the stuff, or stir-fry it with fresh garlic and olive oil.

Broccoli is high in fiber and more densely packed with vitamins and minerals than almost any other food. If you hate vegetables, hide them. Puree them and add them to marinara sauce or chili. The more you chop, the less you taste, and the easier it is for your body to absorb nutrients. With broccoli, sauté it in garlic and olive oil, and douse it with hot sauce.
