Leafy greens: Deep green leafy vegetables are packed with lutein, vitamin A and folate, nutrients that may help prevent colon and ovarian cancer.


Spinach
Kale
Collard greens
Arugula
Dandelion greens

Curry: Yellow curry contains cur-cumin, a pungent spice that may help prevent melanoma and other types of cancer cells from proliferating.

Cruciferous veggies: These contain phytochemicals that may cut the risk of stomach, breast and skin cancers.

Broccoli
Broccoli sprouts
Cabbage
Bok choy
Cauliflower
Watercress
Swiss chard

Berries: These fruits contain antioxidants such as polyphenols, which counteract and repair cell damage.

Blueberries
Blackberries
