What we eat can affect our bodies and health in lots of ways. Consequently, what we do not eat is also a crucial aspect to our health. Therefore, a diet that is deficient in fruits and vegetables can have many adverse effects, among which a higher risk of cancer.
Fruits and veggies are packed with antioxidants such as vitamin C, vitamin E and carotenoids like beta-carotene, which help your cells fight against free radicals. So, don’t hesitate to add leafy greens, orange fruits, sweet potatoes or carrots to your daily meals to protect yourself against cellular damage and lower your risk of getting cancer.
