- Broccoli
was developed in Italy
and is well established as one of the major anti-cancer foods. Over the
past 20 years, numerous studies have concluded again and again that
people who eat an abundance of broccoli have fewer cancers of the
colon, breast, cervix, lungs, prostate, esophagus, larynx, and bladder.
Broccoli contains indoles, which can help
inactivate harmful estrogens that can promote the growth of tumors, sulforaphane,
which stimulates cells to produce cancer-fighting enzymes, and beta-carotene,
another cancer fighter.
