Have a happy and healthy Thanksgiving.
Be sure to
invite the Allium family to dinner this year.
You remember them. They’re a big and powerful family of vegetables that
includes delicious onions, garlic, leeks, chives, shallots, and scallions. They
are not only delicious, but also are associated with decreased risks of
colorectal and other types of cancer.
Onions and the other vegetables of the Allium family can be added to any and every vegetable dish for great flavor and anti-cancer benefits. Remember that they must be eaten raw and chewed well or chopped finely before cooking to initiative the chemical reaction that forms the protective sulfur compounds. Don't worry about crying as you chop. According to Dr Joel Fuhrman, New York Times bestselling author of his new book Super Immunity, when you cut onions and your eyes tear, they are creating the anti-cancer sulfur compounds.
