Effortlessly CRUSH cancer… with a Mediterranean salad trick?

There’s nothing like a cancer diagnosis to force you into REEVALUATING everything in your life.

And one of the biggest changes you might make during your cancer battle is in the food you eat.

Now, you know how important it is to OPTIMIZE your nutrition when you’re in the fight of your life…

ESPECIALLY if you’re receiving conventional cancer treatments that could WEAKEN you to the brink.

But you’ve got to do more than just adopt a “healthier” diet.

Because you can CRUSH cancer with the help of certain disease-fighting foods.

Here’s one that you can add to your arsenal of weapons against cancer… with ZERO effort at the stove!

A ready-to-eat cancer-fighting food

You may have heard of arugula (Eruca sativa), the bitter lettuce that the British call “rocket.”

You may have even tried it in a salad served at your local Italian restaurant.

But what you might not know is that this salad green is in the cruciferous family of vegetables…

Which puts it right alongside other cancer-fighting produce like kale, cabbage, and broccoli!

It gets its peppery, bitter flavor from a group of sulfur-like compounds called glucosinolates. When you eat arugula, your body converts those glucosinolates into cancer-killing chemicals, like sulforaphane.

Research shows how these cruciferous compounds are CRUCIAL to your cancer-fighting battle plan, as they…

• EXTINGUISH inflammation
• NEUTRALIZE cancer-causing agents (a.k.a. carcinogens)
• UNLEASH detoxifying enzymes
• PROTECT your DNA from damage and cancer-causing mutation, and
• INHIBIT tumor formation by slamming the breaks on new blood vessel growth (a.k.a. angiogenesis) and cancer cell migration.

There’s something that makes arugula stand apart from other cruciferous veggies…

Its leaves contain yet ANOTHER cancer-killing compound, one that our bodies can more readily use.

It’s called erucin – and in vitro studies have shown how it can beat back cancer cells SELECTIVELY.

That means it WON’T harm healthy cells that “get in the way”!

According to research, erucin has shown promise in working against lung cancer… liver cancer… breast cancer… leukemia… and more.

And it’s even been shown to initiate cell cycle arrest and cell “suicide” (a.k.a. apoptosis) in cancer cells that resist MULTIPLE drugs.

Erucin is also found in arugula seed – so it’s no surprise that arugula seed oil (a.k.a. taramira oil) has shown to beat back melanoma!

Now, that’s not to say that erucin is any BETTER than sulforaphane.

But I suspect that they’re more powerful TOGETHER… than either one is on its own.

And you can find them BOTH in arugula.

Arugula is also LOADED with fiber… vitamin C… and cancer-fighting plant pigments called carotenoids.

No wonder arugula has a prominent place in many traditional medical practices from the Mediterranean… Middle East… India… and even China.

Fortunately, this leafy green isn’t just for salads.

You can juice arugula into a green power smoothie… grind it into a pesto… or throw some on top of your pizza right before eating.

Unlike broccoli, you don’t have to COOK arugula in order to release these anti-cancer compounds. It’s enough just to CHEW it!

You can also find arugula extract in supplement form… as well as cruciferous-based formulas and “superfood” supplements containing glucosinolates like sulforaphane.

If you choose a broccoli or broccoli seed extract supplement, make sure it’s one that also contains an active form of the enzyme myrosinase.

Otherwise, your body may not be able to UNLOCK the power of the compounds in those capsules.
