What Are The Benefits Of Apricots For Cancer Prevention?

Welcome to our video on the benefits of apricots for cancer prevention, brought to you by BeatCancer.Org - a nonprofit organization that has been helping cancer patients heal holistically for over 45 years.

Did you know that apricots are an excellent source of cancer-protective vitamin A and carotenes? The consumption of fruits rich in carotenes has been shown to protect the body from lung and oral cancers.

A study investigating the effects of an extract from the Japanese apricot found that it was able to check the growth and proliferation of malignant colon cancer cells, causing them to self-destruct. Amygdalin, a natural substance found in apricot pits, is also suspected by many to have anti-cancer activity. Animal studies at the Sloan-Kettering Institute on breast cancer showed that amygdalin had a clear anti-tumor effect with lower rates of metastases. Dr. Ernesto Contreras Rodriguez and his associates at the Centro Medico y Hospital Del Mar in Playas de Tijuana have had favorable results using amygdalin with nearly 30,000 cancer patients.

It is important to note that no single food can cure cancer and that the evidence for the effects of apricots on cancer in humans is limited. It is generally recommended to eat a varied and healthy diet to support overall health and well-being.

If you're interested in incorporating more plant-based foods into your diet for cancer prevention and support, our ABCD diet book may be a helpful resource. It is a simple, reader-friendly alphabetical guide that lists the key anti-cancer properties of 120 specific plant foods and summarizes the latest scientific research on their potential role in cancer prevention, prevention of recurrence, and support during and after treatment.

Remember, the ultimate goal at BeatCancer.org is not to shrink or eliminate tumors, but to support the body's natural defenses against cancer by changing the biological terrain, repairing and balancing body chemistry, and enhancing immune response.
