In recent years, modern medicine has developed a specific type of cancer-fighting drug called an “Angiogenesis Inhibitor”, however, why would you purchase expensive, synthetic drugs, when instead you could go the healthier, cheaper route, and alter your diet to do this more effectively? Not only is this approach touted among various natural healers as an effective way to thwart cancer in its footsteps, it is also a simple way to use your diet to increase your livelihood on a variety of levels.

Certain foods have the ability to inhibit angiogenesis or the formation of new blood vessels. Angiogenesis plays a critical role in the growth and spread of cancer since tumors actually provide the chemical signals that stimulate this process. New blood vessels actually feed the growing tumors with the necessary properties for them to thrive and advance within your system. Although this can come off as alarming news, it can actually give you the upper hand in cancer prevention and treatment.

According to a variety of cancer organizations and health experts, these foods are known angiogenesis inhibitors that will help you in steering cancer away for good.

Red Wine
Containing the powerful molecule known as resveratrol, red wine has the ability to kill bacteria, viruses, and fungi. This amazing antioxidant has been shown to prolong the life of animals, improve cognitive condition and function, as well as prevention of cell deterioration caused by nuclear radiation. The recommended dose of resveratrol supplements is 200-600 mg daily, however, 225 ml of wine delivers around 640 mg of this powerful antioxidant.

Turmeric
Turmeric is a powerful part of any anti-cancer eating plan. Lab research has shown curcumin, a major component in turmeric as an inhibitor of COX-2, an enzyme that causes inflammation that leads to cancer, as well as holding various other cancer-fighting abilities including tumor suppression, and even stopping metastasis or the spread of cancer cells from one organ to another.
