detoxification of cancer cells. Although many of the dietary remedies for
human ailments have been known for centuries, an increasing number of
nutritional scientists have been conducting studies that validate many of
these traditional remedies.

rundown of some cancer-fighting foods:

phosphorus, calcium, sulphur, chlorine, iodine, iron, copper, Vitamin B1,
B2, B6 niacin.

fruit juices, like lemon, orange and grapefruit, are used by naturopaths
as anti-cancer compounds.
