Foods That Heal - Part 4 - From the book Foods That Fight Cancer
SPICES
Ginger, turmeric, Mint, Thyme, Marjoram, Oregano, Basil and Rosemary Parsley, Coriander, Cumin, Fennel, Anise and Chervil
Ginger and turmeric have anti-inflammatory molecules. Curcumin and gingerol have the ability to directly target certain types of cancer cells. Parsley, contains a high level of apigenin, which is a polyphenol with very strong anti-cancer properties. It has been shown to inhibit the growth of a large number of cancer cells from some of the most common cancers we face such as breast, colon, lung and prostate.
Recipes:


Raw Zucchini Noodles with Hemp Nut Pesto - For another sauce (place all ingredients in blender: 3 tomatoes, 4 sun dried tomatoes, a dash of garlic powder, onion powder, fresh basil, and sea salt) My kids loved this and no idea it was a Raw dinner. I did warmed the dish slightly! This meal literally takes 5 minutes and you don't even need to turn the oven on. I used a small, inexpensive vegetable peeler I purchased at William-Somoma.
