Combo #3: Broccoli and Tomatoes
A new research reveals that this tasty food combo prevents prostate cancer, but no one is sure why. However, in a recent cancer research study, John W. Erdman Jr., PhD, of the University of Illinois, actually proved that the pairing shrunk prostate-cancer tumors in rats and that nothing but the extreme measure of castration could actually be a more effective alternative treatment.
“We know that tomato powder lowers the growth of tumors,” says Erdman. “We know that broccoli does, too. And we know they’re better together. But it’s going to take years to find out why, ” he adds.
