Raw Cruciferous Vegetables Prevent Cancer

Researchers from the Roswell Park Cancer Institute in Buffalo have discovered that eating raw cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli and cabbage has been found to decrease the risk of developing bladder cancer by 40 percent. What’s astonishing about this study is that the participants ate only three or more servings of cruciferous vegetables a month!

This study found these results among both smokers and non-smokers. In fact, non-smokers who participated in the study had a 73% lower chance of developing bladder cancer. The study also indicates that cooking these vegetables reduces and/or eliminates the cancer-fighting benefits.

Imagine what eating two or three raw servings of fruit and vegetables a day could do for you! What if 80% or more of what you ate was fresh, organic, raw fruits and vegetables?
