This powerful cancer-fighting sprout salad supercharges your immune system and contains ingredients that fight cancer at the source.
There are few meals healthier than a salad. The problem is, store-bought or restaurant salads can be packed with unnecessary calories and are drenched with dressing.
Let’s take a closer look at the ingredients in this powerful cancer-fighting sprout salad.
Almonds:
Nuts are not often thought of as a cancer fighting food, but research says otherwise. Mounting medical evidence shows that eating a handful of nuts per day can go a long way in the fight against cancer.
Avocados:
There is mounting evidence that avocados are potent cancer fighters. They help the body against free radical damage. Avocados are high in oleic acid, which is a monounsaturated fatty acid found in many plant sources and animal products. It is an omega-9 fatty acid, and is considered one of the healthier sources of fat.
Broccoli sprouts:
Sprouts are extremely potent because they are still young, and are a rich source of essential nutrients such as omega-3 fatty acids, dietary fiber, vitamin, A, C, B vitamins, and vitamin K. They are also a good source of minerals like calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium, and manganese.
Kale:
Kale is packed with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents and may help fight cancer. Like all cruciferous vegetables, kale is also a great source of glucosinolates, which in a study published in the International Journal of Cancer showed potential anti-cancer benefits.
Spinach:
Spinach ranks among the highest in flavonoids and phytonutrients, which are compounds that have powerful anti-inflammatory properties. Foods with anti-inflammatory properties are highly regarded because of their ability to reduce pain associated with inflammation, and their potential to help prevent serious diseases including many types of cancers.
Directions:
Toss the following ingredients a bowl:
1 cup of kale, chopped
1 cup of spinach
1/2 cup of broccoli sprouts
1/2 an avocado, chopped
Handful of almonds, chopped
Make sure ingredients are organic
