Definition of Cancer  Group of diseases characterized by uncontrolled growth and spread of mutated cells

Normal /Cancer Cells

MAIN CAUSES OF CANCER 1. Heredity 2. Acquired environmental factors

Causes of Cancer  INTERNAL  *internal mutations  *hormones  *immune conditions  EXTERNAL  *tobacco  *Infections organisms  *Chemicals  *radiation

Environment- Behavioral Choices (87%)  Tobacco use  Poor nutrition  Physical inactivity  Obesity  Infectious agents  Medical treatments  Excessive exposure to sun  Exposure to pollutants in air, H 2 O, food, soil

Recommendations  Maintain and achieve a healthy weight throughout life.  Adopt a physically active lifestyle  Consume a healthy diet w/emphasis on plant foods.  Limit consumption of alcohol.  No smoking

Foods Link to Cancer  Battle between free radicals and antioxidants.  Free Radicals are molecules with incomplete electron shells.  The free radical attacks the nearest stable electron – stealing its electron.

Free radicals are formed:  1. during metabolism  2. by immune system when fighting infection  3. radiation, pollution, cigarette smoke, herbicides.  Free radical damage accumulates with age.

Antioxidants  Neutralize free radicals by donating one of their electrons.  This prevents cell and tissue damage that could lead to disease.

 Vitamin E – top  Vitamin C  Vitamin A  Beta-carotene  Lycopene  selenium  others Top Antioxidants Fruits/veggies – 5-8 servings per day

Top Fruits  All berries  Plums/cherries  Oranges/mango  Apples  Pomegranates  Watermelon  peaches

Top Vegetables  Sweet potato  Carrots/avocado  Broccoli/spinach  Peppers/pumpkin  Squash/beets  Mixed greens  Asparagus

Other Antioxidants  Nuts, seeds, beans  Coffee and tea  spices
