Colon Cleansers and Vitamin C Defend Against Cancer
Sure they’re tasty, but there’s another reason that you might want to down a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice, slice a red pepper over your green salad and nibble a handful of fragrant strawberries – or take a colon cleanse supplement. You’ll be getting lots of vitamin C, potentially potent protection against cancer.
“Approximately 90 population studies have examined the role of vitamin C-rich foods in cancer prevention, and the vast majority have found statistically significant protective effects,” reports researcher Gladys Block, Ph.D., of the University of California, Berkeley. “Evidence is strong for cancers of the esophagus, oral cavity, stomach and pancreas. There is also substantial evidence of a protective effect against cancers of the cervix, rectum and breast.”
