The Anti-Cancer Power of Asparagus: 3 Things You Need to Know

Welcome to our video on the benefits of asparagus for cancer prevention, brought to you by BeatCancer.Org - a nonprofit organization that has been helping cancer patients heal holistically for over 45 years.

Asparagus is high in cancer-fighting vitamin A and antioxidants, which help regulate cancer-promoting high blood sugar. In a 2009 study, Chinese researchers reported that a chemical called asparanen A showed an anti-cancer effect when added to liver cancer cells. Dr. Richard Beliveau's laboratory research also showed that asparagus extract introduced to colon, brain, lung, breast, and prostate cancer cells achieved cell growth inhibition of between 60 and 100%.

However, it's important to note that asparagus is ill-advised for people with lymphoma, multiple myeloma, and leukemia, especially acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).

It is important to note that no single food can cure cancer and that the evidence for the effects of asparagus on cancer in humans is limited. It is generally recommended to eat a varied and healthy diet to support overall health and well-being.

If you're interested in incorporating more plant-based foods into your diet for cancer prevention and support, our ABCD diet book may be a helpful resource. It is a simple, reader-friendly alphabetical guide that lists the key anti-cancer properties of 120 specific plant foods and summarizes the latest scientific research on their potential role in cancer prevention, prevention of recurrence, and support during and after treatment.

Remember, the ultimate goal at BeatCancer.org is not to shrink or eliminate tumors, but to support the body's natural defenses against cancer by changing the biological terrain, repairing and balancing body chemistry, and enhancing immune response.
