Hello

Another greatly researched nutrient for helping prevent cancer is Garlic. One of many studies was done at the Department of Epidemiology and Nutrition, at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.(The American Journa of Cinical Nutrition. Vol, 72, No. 4, 1047-1052, October 2000) This study concluded that "Garlic may be associated with a protective effect against stomach and colorectal cancers".

Many other studies have shown that Beta Carotene and other antioxidants have a great impact against cancer-causing free radicals.(JAAMA. Vol 279, No. 18, May 13, 1998.) Antioxidants have been shown to actually inhibit the development of cancer.(Blot, W.J., et al. J Natl Cancer Inst. 1993;18:1483-1492) Be sure to check out the tremendous benefits of antioxidants in our anti-aging section of the website.
