11 May Foods to promote anti-angiogenesis
These, in more simple terms, are foods to stop the growth of new blood vessels. Thereby reducing cancer growth/spread.
Bok Choy
This type of Chinese cabbage contains brassinin; a powerful cancer-fighter, also found in broccoli, cauliflower and brussel sprouts. Bok Choy should be eaten 3 times a week, in 1/2 cup servings to obtain its full benefits.
Tomatoes
Cooked Tomatoes have more cancer-fighting properties than raw tomatoes. Both contain the molecule lycopene, but heating the tomato changes its chemical structure and makes the benefits more readily available to your body. You should eat 2-3 (1/2 cup) servings of cooked tomatoes a week.
Flounder
This fish is rich in omega-3 fatty acids and low in mercury. Three 6-ounce servings a week is ideal.
Strawberries
The antioxidants in this berry help fight cancers. You should eat 1 cup a day, including the juice.
Artichokes
Artichokes contain 3 different cancer-fighting molecules. Enjoy ¼ cup of hearts per day.
