I’m absolutely convinced that healthy whole foods can help prevent and cure cancer. Yeah that’s right, I said it. 
We eat food and it becomes our blood and our cells. Eating a healthy diet not only has an immediate effect on how you feel minutes and hours later, but it also affects our health months and years down the road.
The 10th Anniversary issue of The Oprah Magazine features a big section on the future of health. It predicts that the way we detect, treat, and cure diseases will likely change dramatically over the next decade. I’m willing to bet that food awareness will be one of the major breakthroughs. Future cancer research will likely focus on identifying specific varieties of foods that are most helpful in preventing cancer growth. For example, the following list of foods have been found to be the top “anti-angiogenic” foods. Angiogenesis is the formation of new blood cells which allows cancer cells to grow into “a runaway dangerous disease.”
