Beans
Legumes, such as peas and lentils, are high in fiber, which may help reduce the risk of developing certain types of cancer. Using peas regularly with an appropriate dosage will contribute to reducing the risk of cancer thanks to the activity of antioxidants in this bean. For example, compounds called saponins have been shown to prevent certain types of cancer and inhibit tumor growth.
Scientific studies show that lentils have the ability to inhibit the body's production of cyclooxygenase-2 which is an inflammatory substance and the polyphenols in lentils can help prevent the growth of cancer cells, especially skin cancer cells. Walnuts contain several bioactive components that may have anti-cancer properties, including Phytosterols; gamma-tocopherol; omega-3 fatty acids; ellagic acid, and related compounds; various antioxidant polyphenols.
