Understand the anti-cancer ingredients of vegetables for your health and longevity

Winter is coming, the temperature is low, the days are short and the nights are long, human activities are relatively reduced, and appetite is increased As we add calories to our diet to keep out the cold Do not just to meet the desire of the stomach and mouth, and ignore the conditioning and maintenance of the body The life home editor has specially collected all kinds of diet and health care information suitable for severe winter for you, so that you and your family are healthy and happy every day! Vegetable is not only an important source of nutrients for human body, but also an indispensable material basis to ensure human health Fresh vegetables are not only delicious and nutritious, but also have high medical and health value At the end of 1913, the crew of the Russian "St Hooke" ship, which was moored in the Arctic Ocean, although they were eating high-grade food such as canned fish and meat, had a collective scurvy event, because they could not eat fresh vegetables for several days in a row Why can fresh vegetables cure diseases? Because it is rich in vitamins and cellulose, inorganic salts, and trace elements such as iron, calcium, copper, etc., which are important raw materials for the production of red blood cells and bone development in the human body The rich cellulose can absorb water in the intestinal tract to stimulate the intestinal tract, enhance gastrointestinal peristalsis, reduce the contact time between feces and intestinal mucosa, so as to Some carcinogens in faeces are excreted in time, which will not cause intestinal retention, so as to eliminate some pathogenic factors For a long time, scientists all over the world have been actively studying and exploring the anti-cancer mechanism of vegetables in order to conquer cancer Scientists from China, the United States, Japan and other countries, after decades of research, have listed more than 40 kinds of vegetables that are believed to be able to prevent and treat cancer in some form, such as carrots, sweet potatoes, garlic, peppers, cauliflower, mushrooms, mushrooms, konjac, pumpkins, soybeans, ginger, onions, cabbage, onions, radishes, leeks, tomatoes and so on As a result, "to prevent cancer and keep fit, eat more vegetables, fruits and fruits" will be popular all over the world So, which vegetables can prevent and cure cancer? This paper introduces the anti-cancer ingredients in vegetables Recently, researchers at home and abroad used advanced SOS color test to study the antimutagenic food SOS reaction is a kind of repair function with error tendency when RNA in cells is damaged or DNA replication is blocked SOS chromogenic reaction test can detect the mutation or anti mutation degree of food rapidly and effectively The researchers screened more than 30 kinds of fresh vegetables, such as ginger, green pepper, onion, potato, celery, carrot, spinach, cauliflower, white radish, mushroom, lettuce, broad bean, leek, yellow bean sprout, Chinese toon, shepherd's purse, tomato, bamboo shoot, garlic and so on The results showed that the acetone extract of most vegetables had anti SOS reaction, possibly with chlorophyll The water-soluble extracts of garlic, leek, leek, soybean sprout, tomato and other 10 kinds of vegetables can inhibit the SOS reaction, among which leek, garlic and leek have the strongest effect, and the SOS reaction is inhibited, suggesting that these vegetables have the anti mutation effect, and the water-soluble extracts are closer to the living conditions, so the anti-cancer significance is greater One of the anti-cancer ingredients of vegetables: it took experts from the Institute of viruses, Chinese Academy of preventive medicine, six years to finally uncover the secret of anti-cancer of vegetables - the interferon containing inducer Interferon inducers can induce and stimulate the production of interferon in cells, promote the anti-virus infection resistance of the body and inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells In order to prevent oral cancer, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer and nasopharyngeal cancer, we should try our best to eat raw vegetables rich in interferon inducers Two anti-cancer ingredients of vegetables: vegetables containing sulfur compounds and rich in sulfur compounds, including onions, onions and garlic of Liliaceae, white radish, cabbage and turnip of Cruciferae, etc For example, cruciferous vegetables contain indoles and aromatic thiocyanates, which are natural inhibitors of cancer cells According to American scientists' experimental research, thiophene thioketone rich in cruciferous vegetables has anti-cancer effect It has been proved by animal experiments that thiophene thioketone can significantly reduce the incidence of gastric cancer and lung cancer induced by benzopyrene According to the American Hormone Research Institute, Chinese cabbage contains compounds called indole-3-formaldehyde, which can decompose estrogen related to breast cancer, so regular eating Chinese cabbage can prevent breast cancer Experts also suggest that women should eat more cruciferous vegetables, which can prevent and treat cancer diseases unique to women Three anti-cancer ingredients in vegetables: containing β - sitosterol According to the research of scientists in a cancer research center, β - sitosterol, one of the main ingredients in vegetables, has the effect of preventing and treating tumor formation When animals were fed a diet containing 0.2% β - glutaraldehyde, the growth of colonic epithelial cells was 50% lower than that of the control group In addition, according to the experiment, animals were first fed with carcinogenic nitrosamines and then β - glutaraldehyde Only 1 / 3 of the animals had cancer, while more than half of the control group had cancer Japanese scientists have found that a kind of "amylase" contained in radish can relieve the toxicity of strong carcinogens such as nitrosamine and benzopyrene, making it lose its carcinogenic effect, and its anti-cancer effect is more significant In addition, lettuce, peas, bean sprouts, pumpkins, etc also contain an "enzyme", which can decompose strong carcinogenic substance nitrosamine and effectively prevent cancer In addition, according to American scientific research, eating more tomatoes can reduce the incidence rate of prostate cancer and pancreatic cancer in men The results showed that the prevalence of prostate cancer in people who ate tomato containing foods more than 10 times a week decreased by 45% compared with those who did not eat tomatoes Lycopene is the main anti-cancer component of tomato It interferes with the molecules that destroy the genetic material DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and cause cancer in human body Four anti-cancer ingredients of vegetables: under the leadership of Professor Bu Jin of cancer inhibition Laboratory of Russian cancer research center, β - carotene has been studied for many years The results confirm that taking beta carotene can reduce the incidence rate of cancer, such as stomach cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer and brain tumor, from 1/2 to 2/3 If the body lacks β - carotene or vitamin A, it can cause esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, lung cancer and other cancers According to the epidemiological survey conducted in the United States, Japan, Iran, North China, etc., it is found that the incidence of esophageal cancer is related to the insufficient intake of vitamin A, while the low level of vitamin A is associated with the high risk of cancer Vegetables rich in β - carotene include carrot, pepper, spinach, leek, rape, cabbage, celery, tomato, bamboo shoot, alfalfa and coriander Among the B vitamins, B2, B6, B12 and folic acid all have anti-cancer effects Reducing the toxicity of chemical carcinogens in vivo requires the participation of vitamin B2 According to the experimental study, eating more foods containing vitamin B2 can prevent and treat liver cancer Vegetables containing vitamin B2 include: fresh green leafy vegetables, Porphyra, shiitake mushrooms, fresh beans, etc Lack of folate and vitamin B12 is an important factor in the high incidence of esophageal cancer For example, Yangcheng County in Shanxi Province is a high incidence area of esophageal cancer According to a large number of investigations and tests conducted by experts from Shanxi Medical College, the overall level of serum folate and vitamin B12 in this county is significantly low Therefore, the prevention of folic acid and vitamin B12 deficiency is one of the measures to prevent esophageal cancer According to the epidemiological survey, the lack of folic acid can also lead to cervical cancer, colon cancer, rectal cancer and brain cancer The main vegetables containing folic acid are spinach, celery, cowhide, leek, cabbage, cauliflower, lettuce, etc.
