Well, I didn't really know thank you.

Christophe: well the complete sheet on the artichoke. ;)

Anti cancer pyramid:

The anti-cancer pyramid, established by the American Cancer Institute, should be displayed in all kitchens. The 33 foods mentioned contain a wide variety of vegetables, fruits, aromatic herbs and some cereals. At the top of the pyramid are cabbage (and sauerkraut). The foods included in this pyramid highlight the importance of these foods in preventing not only cancer, but many other diseases. Thus the high dose of vitamin C in cabbage and sauerkraut protects against cooling, their iron and vitamin B6 content increases the feeling of well-being and sharpens the form in general, and acetylcholine exerts a soothing effect neuro-vegetative system. It is therefore a “cabbage-miracle” (Wunderkraut) in the true sense of the term.

A big YES for the whole rice (there they practically only know the white flour cereals ...) And on the whole it's already good!

Arf, but yet reduce the fruits to citrus fruits, where are these ricains?
At least bananas are missing, in short all the fruits are to be included in the list, and the oilseeds in the form of first pressure oil! (They cite flaxseed, except that the resulting oil is prohibited for sale in France, since it can be hepatotoxic and fatal when fried, and the seeds are better to grind and / or eat raw, because when added to bread, they release "TRANS" acids, which are just as harmful in the long term).

The important thing about these tables is an awareness that cancers, like other diseases, are only lifestyle-related effects and turning to phytotherapy prevention is still better than taking drugs chemicals.

And all, in moderation !!! And a certain variety ...

[I sometimes remind the example of this anglias - I think - who in the 60s had read an article on the interest of carotene and carrot juice and who, lacking nuance, drank 2 or 3 liters every days ; he died of liver cirrhosis after half a dozen years, like a duck stuffed with corn!]

Licorice gives tension

medical licorice to avoid this problem must be deglycyrrhizinated

Would surprise me that DGL liquorice is in the kitchen!

This is one of the problems: one thing "good against caner" can be much less good for something else (cardiovascular disease for example).

Soy at "high dose" is not necessarily recommended either, etc ...

And as we do not always know in advance what we will be affected by, it is better to remain "nuanced" ...

[well, I haven't heard of a sauerkraut overdose yet - a certified "organic" production has just been released!]

the few cases of overdose are linked to the consumption of "concentrated" or physiologically abherent products. Thus the carrot juices mentioned. If these carrots had been consumed not extracted, that is to say chewed, the limitation then occurs by itself in quantitative terms. The same is true for any product including soybeans listed above.
on the other hand, physiological limitation and dietary diversity presents no risk of pathology (except already existing pathology).

We agree !

I'm just calling attention to a possible "fool read" of such diagrams, or such "recipe", with people who think they can cure themselves by excessive and unreasonable consumption, never possible in a natural behavior, of such or such food ... But possible in a hyper-mediated society (see the impact of certain fashionable "diets"!)

And the possible side effects, if we are not careful while thinking to do well : liquorice and hypertension, sauerkraut and salt and therefore hypertension ...

sauerkraut and salt and therefore hypertension ...

Hi Did67
Scandalous!!!

Sauerkraut is a diet product

Uh, seriously, are you drinking beer or is it second degree there?

We agree !

Hello. Really, without offense, I find it difficult to follow this reasoning.

If we reason in terms of "balanced food bowl", This must constitute a" complete bowl "according to - for example - the proportions decreed by the WHO in IU (International Unit). Obviously the body will automatically sort it out according to needs, and absolutely nothing can be "harmful" against this or that pathology and conversely "good for another", since the goal of this is just to avoid deficiencies! And this precisely so that the organism is able to draw what it needs.

Even for meat, the quantity officially recommended, should not exceed once or twice a week (from memory), beyond that it is everyone who takes their responsibilities (as with tobacco and alcohol ...).

So it's good to remember a few points, even dangers of this thread at this stage:

To think that eating this or that food "Against Cancer"Can lead to a wrong interpretation of the style:
- I can eat whatever I like, smoke and drink whatever I want, as long as I eat this “anti-cancer”, I don't risk anything;

- I must not forget my “anti-cancer” food when I go to make my purchases (and suddenly we forget to buy ALL THE REST which would constitute a balanced food bowl), and so we will be in good condition deficiency and have the danger of catching a specific type of cancer, favored by the said state of deficiency;

- we believe that the communication made around "anti-cancer" is convincing, so we trust it without thinking that the food in question, would not be well assimilated by its own metabolism (when it could well 'be with someone else);

- and finally the most subtle of all (and scientifically proven), eat something "Just because it's good for your health"Is sometimes forcing yourself, precisely because it would be prejudged as" good ". However, it has been proven that forcing yourself to eat something causes a defensive reaction which makes it indigestible (or something), by the secretion of "products", by the organism, which can in extreme cases even cause the death of the subject! There are other cases (not specific to the assimilation of food) such as certain" psychic stresses "which can also cause death of a subject by cardiac arrest, via the release / secretion of "product / s"analogues (and spontaneously by the human body) it is a paradoxical state, of a subject who has not been listened to !!!

From there, you have to watch out for any type of obligation, restriction or whatever, since it generates a disturbing type of “stress”. So to say to myself I eat this because "it's good for the health" not enough! If it is so much the better, but never forget the concept of DESIRE / PLEASURE to eat, which are just as important as what we eat (since it makes us salivate rather in one way than another in depending on the food, the smell, its appearance, its taste, and that the pre-digestion begins in the mouth)!

Even if it is necessary to reassure, the body has the means to do the best with what we give it! But it was by way of example, to show how far any state of constraint can go.
