Here is a GREAT article I read from the increasingly popular website, “The Truth About Cancer”.
It follows my food and nutrition philosophy of having a bigger percentage of your diet belonging to raw food nutrition. I was drawn to this article for a NUMBER of reasons,
and the awesome pineapple here, (an enzyme-rich natural food) is something I eat everyday. SO yummy in my organic post-work out morning smoothie!
Check out the article below (many thanks to the people at The Truth About Cancer.com!) to see how you can begin the healing and prevention of cancer:
Keep Cancer at Bay with Enzyme-Rich Raw Foods
Eating is clearly an essential daily activity and what you eat is vitally important. However, did you know that how you eat your food can have a huge impact on your health and even your risk of cancer? Raw foods can be highly beneficial and contain essential enzymes and minerals necessary to thwart cancer, improve health, and deliver the energy that most people desire.
What are Enzymes?
Enzymes are amazing protein molecules responsible for breaking down food (digestion) and converting it to energy (metabolism). Moreover, enzymes are phenomenal living entities. Thousands of enzymes are located within every cell, ever ready to perform biochemical tasks.
Interestingly, enzymes do not get used up, but rather can be transformed from a metabolic enzyme to a digestive enzyme, or excreted from the body through fecal matter. Thus, the challenge is to have enough enzymes to handle the demands of digestion, metabolism, detoxification, and elimination.
Cancer and Enzymes: the Role of Raw Foods
No two people process their food alike or eat the same foods every day. Thankfully there is a plethora of plant-based foods offering the biodiversity to meet the enzymatic demand for the billions of biochemical reactions required for each human being…
