Leafy Greens
Leaft greens are up next on our list of anti-cancer foods. Leafy greens are high in minerals, vitamins, and fiber. All of these things contribute to a decreased cancer risk. Swiss chard and spinach both contain carotenoids, which help the body eliminate damaging free radicals. Additionally, arugula and mustard greens are full of glucosinolates, which help the body’s natural detoxification process. Romaine lettuce and collard greens are high in folate, a B vitamin required for DNA repair and cancer prevention.
