common even among the non smokers as well as non drinkers.
In the recent past I come across with few of our close associates’ family members, colleagues and friends succumbed to this disease. I did a search to learn more about this sickness, thus i came to know about a wonder working natural remedy for this disease. It is known as Soursop in English and Mullaatha(മുള്ളാത്ത)or Kaattaatha in Malayalam. More information about this fruit please visit the links given at the bottom of this post.

One such vegetable which kills cancer is
Cabbage. It has a great history to tell
for centuries. It is believed that a
dish "Sauerkraut" made by cabbage helped the Asian labors to build the great wall
of China.
During captain Cook’s voyage
to the Antarctic Circle cabbage kept sailors from dying of
Scurvy.
During the middle age
Europeans survived harsh winters by the usage of this vegetable.

The Ancient Roman 'Cato
the elder' crushed cabbage leaves to treat cancerous ulcers years before. Now the modern science confirms this, that cabbage
is an easy but powerful way to prevent
cancer. To get the full benefit, it
should not be boiled or over cooked, instead quickly steam or stir fry. This way you can retain more than 60% of its
cancer fighting nutrients.
Red cabbage has up to
28 times more flavonoids than other cabbages.
It is more beneficial to a woman
past menopause and it helps to lower breast cancer risk.
If takes along with
apples broccoli, tea and onions you get enough flavonoids.
A recent research says
that eating raw cabbage or quick cooked cabbage
three times a week may lower breast cancer. Particularly if they start eating this at a
younger age this cancer may not get to such people.
Now comes
cauliflower, when you bite a cauliflower
you can say that you are eating a
flower. Yes a cauliflower head is a group of flowers that stopped growing while
they were still buds. Like its cousins,
cabbage and broccoli cauliflower is loaded with some of the most powerful
anti-cancer weapons. Cabbage and
cauliflower are rich in isothiocyanate
called benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC). A new researcg from Texas says
people who eat such foods had almost 30% less risk of bladder cancer. This is a good reason to eat more cabbage,
cauliflower, kale, broccoli and watercress and Brussels sprouts.
