List Of Cancer Fighting Fruits

Hi Guys..

Today I have listed a few excellent cancer fighting Fruits... Check it out..


Avocados are rich in glutathione, a powerful antioxidant that attacks free radicals in the body by blocking intestinal absorption of certain fats. They also supply even more potassium than bananas and are a strong source of beta-carotene. Scientists believe that avocados may also be useful in treating viral hepatitis (a cause of liver cancer), as well as other sources of liver damage.

Figs apparently have a derivative of benzaldehyde. It has been reported that investigators at the Institute of Physical and Chemical Research in Tokyo say benzaldehyde is highly effective at shrinking tumors. In addition, the U.S. Department of Agriculture says figs, which contain vitamins A and C, and calcium, magnesium and potassium, may curtail appetite and improve weight-loss efforts. Fig juice is also a potent bacteria killer in test-tube studies.

Grapefruits, like oranges and other citrus fruits, contain monoterpenes, believed to help prevent cancer by sweeping carcinogens out of the body. Some studies show that grapefruit may inhibit the proliferation of breast-cancer cells in vitro. They also contains vitamin C, beta-carotene, and folic acid.

Grapes, red grapes contain bioflavonoids, powerful antioxidants that work as cancer preventives. Grapes are also a rich source of resveratrol, which inhibits the enzymes that can stimulate cancer-cell growth and suppress immune response. They also contain ellagic acid, a compound that blocks enzymes that are necessary for cancer cells–this appears to help slow the growth of tumors.

Oranges and lemons contain Iimonene which stimulates cancer-killing immune cells (lymphocytes, e.g.) that may also break down cancer-causing substances.

Papayas have vitamin C that works as an antioxidant and may also reduce absorption of cancer-causing nitrosamines from the soil or processed foods. Papaya contains folacin (also known as folic acid), which has been shown to minimize cervical dysplasia and certain cancers.

Raspberries contain many vitamins, minerals, plant compounds and antioxidants known as anthocyanins that may protect against cancer. According to a recent research study reported by Cancer Research (2001;61:6112-6119) rats fed diets of 5 percent to 10 percent black raspberries saw the number of esophageal tumors decrease by 43 percent to 62 percent. Research reported in the journal Nutrition and Cancer in May 2002 shows black raspberries may also thwart colon cancer. Black raspberries are rich in antioxidants, thought to have even more cancer-preventing properties than blueberries and strawberries.

Tomatoes contain lycopene, an antioxidant that attacks roaming oxygen molecules, known as free radicals, that are suspected of triggering cancer. It appears that the hotter the weather, the more lycopene tomatoes produce. They also have vitamin C, an antioxidant which can prevent cellular damage that leads to cancer. Watermelons, carrots, and red peppers also contain these substances, but in lesser quantities. It is concentrated by cooking tomatoes. Scientists in Israel have shown that lycopene can kill mouth cancer cells. An increased intake of lycopene has already been linked to a reduced risk of breast, prostate, pancreas and colorectal cancer. (Note: Recent studies indicate that for proper absorption, the body also needs some oil along with lycopene.

Bananas - The Miracle Fruit.... Read to believe

Hi guys,

The banana is a very common fruit which is always associated with an after meal desert due to its simplicity in consumption. Today i am going to enlighten you on so much more that a banana can do for you by consuming in on a regular basis.

The banana contains three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy. Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes. But energy isn't the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.

Depression: According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.

PMS: Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.

Anemia: High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.

Blood Pressure: This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it the perfect to beat blood pressure. So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke

Brain Power : 200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex) school were helped
through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.

Constipation: High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.

Hangovers: One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.

Heartburn: Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.

Morning Sickness: Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.

Mosquito bites: Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.

Nerves: Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system. Overweight and at work? Studies at the Institute of Psychology in Austria found pressure at work leads to gorging on comfort food like chocolate and crisps. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely to be in high-pressure jobs The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady

Ulcers: The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.

Temperature control: Many other cultures see bananas as a "cooling" fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand, for example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.

Seasonal = Affective Disorder (SAD): Bananas can help SAD sufferers because they contain the natural mood enhancer tryptophan.

Smoking: Bananas can also help people trying to give up smoking. The B6, B12 they contain, as well as the potassium and magnesium found in them, help the body recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal.

Stress: Potassium is a vital mineral, which helps normalize the heartbeat, sends oxygen to the brain and regulates your body's water balance. When we are stressed, our metabolic rate rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels. These can be balanced with the help of a high-potassium banana snack.

Strokes: According to research in "The New England Journal of Medicine, "eating bananas as part of a regular diet can cut the risk of death by strokes by as much as 40%!

Warts: Those keen on natural alternatives swear that if you want to kill off a wart, take a piece of banana skin and place it on the wart, with the yellow side out. Carefully hold the skin in place with a plaster or surgical tape!

So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, it has four times the protein, twice the carbohydrate, three times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around. So maybe it is time to change that well-known phrase so that we say, "A banana a day keeps the doctor away!"

Health Benefits of Mangosteens...

Hi Guys,

Today i am going to write a little bit on a very popular fruit among asians... the MANGOSTEEN.. This simple, common fruit which have been consumed for hundreds maybe thousands of years is actually loaded with lots of health benefits... 

Now what is so good about it? Well, this wonder fruit is very high in an antioxidant called Xanthone. Apart from that, it contains Proanthocyanidins, catechins, tannins, polysaccharides, sterols, and fiber - All of these being natural chemical compounds. 

Ok, what do they do??

Scientifically, it has been recorded that these fruits maintain intestinal health, support the immune system, neutralize free radicals, help support joint and cartilage functions, and promote a healthy seasonal respiratory system. It's also said to be used for UTI's, gonorrhea, thrush, TB, menstrual disorders, cancer, osteoarthritis, dysentery, and improving mental health.

It's best results are seen in the Anti Aging process and prevention of Cancer.

What's the best form for its consumption... Well guys, anything is best when consumed in its natural form.. The fruit it self but how often do we consume them??... in cases like this, if you would have realized over this past 1 year there has been a boom in Mangosteen juice products... As for this juice, there has been a lot of hype about the wonders that it can do... It could be true to a certain extend and the rest could just be marketing gimmicks... There is no certain evidence as i have mentioned before in previous posts that different people have different reactions to anything they consume.... At the end of the day, whether or not to buy these juices it's entirely up to your decision...

As for the factual part, it's our duty to tell you that YES, mangosteens are indeed a very health beneficial fruit...

That's all for today guys... till our next post.. adios..

Pineapples are not just for its refreshing taste... There's MORE!!

Hi Guys..


Here's yet another extremely beneficial fruit... You may be thinking "I am sure every fruit is beneficial".. Well you are 100% right.. What we are doing is highlighting the benefits of these fruits to you :) 


Many of us consume all sorts of food without knowing its benefits... now that we know, you can eat it right... RIGHT?

Fresh Pineapple Has Many Benefits....

The pineapple is a member of the bromeliad family. It is extremely rare that bromeliads produce edible fruit. The pineapple is the only available edible bromeliad today. It is a multiple fruit. One pineapple is actually made up of dozens of individual flowerettes that grow together to form the entire fruit.

Each scale on a pineapple is evidence of a separate flower. Pineapples stop ripening the minute they are picked. No special way of storing them will help ripen them further. Color is relatively unimportant in determining ripeness.

Choose your pineapple by smell. If it smells fresh, tropical and sweet, it will be a good fruit. The more scales on the pineapple, the sweeter and juicier the taste.

After you cut off the top, you can plant it. It should grow much like a sweet potato will. This delicious fruit is not only sweet and tropical; it also offers many benefits to our health.

Pineapple is a remarkable fruit. We find it enjoyable because of its lush, sweet and exotic flavor, but it may also be one of the most healthful foods available today. 

If we take a more detailed look at it, we will find that pineapple is valuable for easing indigestion, arthritis or sinusitis. The juice has an anthelmintic effect; it helps get rid of intestinal worms.

Let's look at how pineapple affects other conditions.

Pineapple is high in manganese, a mineral that is critical to development of strong bones and connective tissue. A cup of fresh pineapple will give you nearly 75% of the recommended daily amount. It is particularly helpful to older adults, whose bones tend to become brittle with age. 
 
Bromelain, a proteolytic enzyme, is the key to pineapple's value.

Proteolytic means "breaks down protein", which is why pineapple is known to be a digestive aid. It helps the body digest proteins more efficiently. 

Bromelain is also considered an effective anti-inflammatory. Regular ingestion of at least one cup of fresh pineapple daily is purported to relieve painful joints common to osteoarthritis. It produces mild pain relief. In Germany, bromelain is approved as a post-injury medication because it is thought to reduce inflammation and swelling.

Orange juice is a popular liquid for those suffering from a cold because it is high in Vitamin C. 
Fresh pineapple is not only high in this vitamin, but because of the bromelain, it has the ability to reduce mucous in the throat.

If you have a cold with a productive cough, add pineapple to your diet. It is commonly used in Europe as a post-operative measure to cut mucous after certain sinus and throat operations. Those individuals who eat fresh pineapple daily report fewer sinus problems related to allergies. In and of itself, pineapple has a very low risk for allergies. 

Pineapple is also known to discourage blood clot development. This makes it a valuable dietary addition for frequent fliers and others who may be at risk for blood clots. 

It's also good for a healthier mouth. The fresh juice discourages plaque growth.

Well guys, now you know why we should consume pineapples... till the next post.. adios.. 

Cucumber Secret Revealed

Cucumber is no alien to anyone of us. Most commonly, the cucumber is referred to as a beauty element (we always notice beauticians placing a slice of cucumber on our eyes), a food product (often served with many main courses, let it be Asian, Western, Thai etc as a salad). 

Why is it so popular? We have been consuming it for ages probably because it's just there (we don't like wasting food right?) but do we deliberately look for cucumber for consumption? Some of us may, some of us may not....For either case do we actually know the benefits of it? 

Well, more than just an eye patch, cucumbers have a lot of wonderful values which i am going to list below. 

Before the list, is cucumber a fruit or a vegetable? Hahaha... seems like a weird question but you will be surprised that many don't really know this.. 

The Cucumber is actually a fruit unlike what many think.. Why is it classified as a fruit? Theoretically anything that grows from a flower and contains seeds are classified as fruits. Other fruits commonly perceived as vegetables are chillies, egg plant, bell peppers, etc. Well, you just had a brief intro to Agriculture 101..:)) 

Back to business.. THE CUCUMBER:-    

Properties of Cucumber - It is high in Manganese, Sulfur, Potassium, Silica, Chlorophyll, Vitamin A, has high water content and very Alkaline

All it's properties play an important role in maintaining good health in our body

1) Sulfur and Silica - Substances very important for great hair growth, beautiful looking nails, maintaining of connective tissues such as muscles, tendons, cartilage, ligaments and bones.

2) Potassium - helps in reducing blood pressure (something very common among adults. 1 in 10 adults have hypertension)

3) Vitamin A - Great for maintaining good eye sight, helps with skin health (includes smoother skin, younger looking skin, reduces acne, etc)

4) Its Alkaline property make it an excellent anti-oxidant (Cancer cells cannot live in an alkaline environment)

5) Its high water content makes it an extremely good body cooling component and an excellent diuretic. It cleans up our kidneys pretty well

Recent studies have shown that cucumbers are good for the following:- 

1) Acne

2) Eczema

3) Hair Loss

4) Kidney Health

5) Weight Loss

6) Arthritis

7) High Blood Pressure

8) Psoriasis

9) Detoxification

Infact it is also said to be great for treating light burns, skin blemishes etc (Simply crush and apply to affected area)

Well friends, here's a brief list of what can cucumbers do for us. All we need to do is to make it a practise to consume them on a regular basis. 

Health professionals recommend that cucumbers are best to be consumed as juice (by placing them in a juicer) or crushed (by placing them in a blender and crushing them). 

I personally prefer it crushed... why? Because i can consume what i need and the balance i just rub it over my face... leave it for 15 mins and wash it off... 2 in 1 a great healthy drink and a wonderful soft skin.. :)

Tips To Choose A Good Cucumber 

Look for dark green Cucumbers. Good Cucumbers do have a bumpy surface. Choose Cucumbers that are about 10 to 20 cm long.

Cucumbers are usually waxed and so if you can, get Cucumbers that are not waxed.

If the cucumber is old, it will appear yellowish.

Stay healthy guys...

The Wonders of PAPAYA

I came across this article about the benefits of papayas in an email sent by a friend. To tell you the truth, i never knew it had so much benefits.. Frankly i don't like to eat this fruit. I only use it as an option when i face constipation issues... Well, now i have a new found respect for this fruit. Below are extracts from various medical journals and articles about the benefit of papayas:- 

Papaya was the only studied food found to halt breast cancer.

Scientists studied 14 plant foods commonly consumed in Mexico to determine their ability to halt breast cancer cell growth. These included avocado, black sapote, guava, mango, prickly pear cactus (nopal), pineapple, grapes, tomato, and papaya. They also evaluated beta-carotene, total plant phenolics, and gallic acid contents and antioxidant capacity. They found that only papaya had a significant effect in stopping breast cancer cell growth. (International Journal of Food Science and Nutrition, May)

Papaya is a store-house of cancer fighting lycopene

 

The intense orangey-pink color of papaya means it is chock full of cancer fighting carotenoids. Not only beta carotene, but lycopene is found in abundance. The construction of lycopene makes it highly reactive toward oxygen and free radicals. 

Scientists at the University of Illinois think this anti-oxidant activity contributes to its effectiveness as a cancer fighting agent. 

 

Epidemiological studies have indicated an inverse relationship between lycopene intake and prostate cancer risk. They showed that oral lycopene is highly bioavailable, accumulates in prostate tissue, and is localized in the nucleus of prostate epithelial cells.

 

In addition to antioxidant activity, other experiments have indicated that lycopene induces cancer cell death, anti-metastatic activity, and the up-regulation of protective enzymes. Phase I and II studies have established the safety of lycopene supplementation. (Cancer Letter, October 8, 2008)

Isothiocyanates found in papaya restore the cell cycle to eliminate cancer

 

Organo-sulfur compounds called isothiocyanates are found in papaya. In animal experiments, isothiocyanates protected against cancers of the breast, lung, colon pancreas, and prostate, as well as leukemia, and they have the potential to prevent cancer in humans. Isothiocyanates have shown themselves capable of inhibiting both the formation and development of cancer cells through multiple pathways and mechanisms. (International Journal of Oncology)

Japanese Research on Papaya

Researchers in Japan clarified the mechanisms of action in a type of isothiocyanate found in papaya known as BITC, that underlies the relationship between cell cycle regulation and appropriate cell death. When cancerous cells die on schedule, they are no longer a problem. The researchers established that BITC exerted cancer cell killing effects that were greater in the proliferating cells than in the quiescent cells. Cancer cells that are proliferating are much more dangerous than cancer cells that are in a state of dormancy.(Forum of Nutrition, 2009)

Enzymes from papaya digest proteins including those that protect tumors

 

The fruit and other parts of the papaya tree, also known as the paw paw tree, contain papain and chymopapain, powerful proteolytic enzymes that facilitate chemical reactions in the body. They promote digestion by helping to break down proteins from food into amino acids that can be recombined to produce protein useable by humans. Proteolytic enzymes protect the body from inflammation and help heal burns. They do a good job of digesting unwanted scar tissue both on the skin and under its surface.

Research has shown that the physical and mental health of people is highly dependent on their ability to produce proteins they can use effectively. However, as people age, they produce less of the enzymes needed to effectively digest proteins from food and free needed amino acids. They are left with excessive amounts of undigested protein which can lead to overgrowth of unwanted bacteria in the intestinal tract, and a lack of available amino acids.

 

Eating papaya after a meal promotes digestion, and helps prevent bloating, gas production, and indigestion. It is quite helpful after antibiotic use to replenish friendly intestinal bacteria that were the casualties in the war against the unwanted bacteria. When the intestinal tract is well populated with friendly bacteria, the immune system is strengthened, and can better protect against flu and cancer.

Being a proteolytic enzyme, papain is able to destroy intestinal parasites, which are composed mostly of protein. To rid the body of intestinal parasites, half a cup of papaya juice can be alternated each hour for twelve consecutive hours with the same amount of cucumber or green bean juice.

 

Papaya contains fibrin, another useful compound not readily found in the plant kingdom. Fibrin reduces the risk of blood clots and improves the quality of blood cells, optimizing the ability of blood to flow through the circulatory system. Fibrin is also important in preventing strokes. Proteolytic enzymes containing fibrin are a good idea for long plane rides to minimize the potential of blood clots in the legs. People who sit at a desk all day might want to use proteolytic enzymes too.

Proteolytic enzymes are able to digest and destroy the defense shields of viruses, tumors, allergens, yeasts, and various forms of fungus. Once the shield is destroyed, tumors and invading organisms are extremely vulnerable and easily taken care of by the immune system.

 

Undigested proteins can penetrate the gut and wind up in the bloodstream where they are treated by the immune system as invaders. If too many undigested proteins are floating around, the immune system becomes overburdened and unable to attend to the other tasks it was meant to do. Proteolytic enzymes can digest these rogue proteins, freeing up the immune system.

After reading all this, i have learnt a great deal about this fruit. Make it a daily practice to consume at least 1 slice of papaya a day. 

Have a great day ahead guys...  till my next post.. adios..
