How Certain Vegetables Combat Cancer

Cancer is now a biggest threat to the human life. Scientists worldwide are searching the cludes for prevention. It has been known for some time that eating cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage can help prevent breast cancer. These vegetables contain compounds called isothiocyanates which is believed to be responsible for the cancer-preventive and anti-carcinogenic activities in these vegetables. Broccoli and broccoli sprout have the highest amount of the isothiocyantes.
Eating more vegetables has much more benefits than just cancer-prevention, especially when we are used to the diet with more fats and proteins. So, stay with the principle to eat 5 or more servings of vegetables and fruits a day to stay healthy.
