Cancer is by far the most devastating disease known in the United States. Those who are diagnosed know the importance of proper nutrition. These are the 5 all important vitamins used to help keep cancer sufferers alive.
1) Vitamin A
Vitamin A is used as an anti-oxidant for important healing properties. A few natural sources to find vitamin are green fruits and vegetables, and even in animal liver.
Vitamin B is highly important to the health of nerves and energy production.
Natural sources include chicken, eggs, yeast, whole grains, green vegetables, and fish.
3) Vitamin E
Vitamin E is an antioxidant, used for circulation and tissue repair. Many natural places to find vitamin E are vegetable oils, green vegetables, legumes, nuts, seeds, brown rice, eggs, kelp, oatmeal and sweet potatoes.
4) Vitamin C
Vitamin C is an antioxidant needed to assist many metabolic functions of the human body. Natural sources include citrus fruits, red fruits, yellow vegetables, as well as many different green vegetables. Your body is unable to store this essential nutrient therefore, we need to ingest it each and every day..
5) Vitamin B17
Vitamin B17 is one that interacts with large amounts of beta-glucose in cancer cells. It produces a poison known as hydrogen cyanide to help fight cancer cells. The reason that it does not target healthy cells is that they have small quantities of beta-glucose. It also breaks the poison down into compounds that actually assist your entire immune system.
Natural sources include flaxseed oil, brown rice, yeast, lentils, nuts, pecans, raspberries, strawberries, walnuts, watercress and yams.
Just remember that a diet that supports all elements of the food pyramid is your best chance to fight cancer. I consider this the gift from mother nature.
