DESCRIPTION: Less than a teaspoon a day of turmeric appears to significantly lower the DNA mutating ability of cancer-causing substances.
This is second of a three-part video series on turmeric curcumin and its relationship to cancer. To find out more, check out the prequel Back to Our Roots: Curry and Cancer (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/back-...) and the last video in the series Turmeric Curcumin Reprogramming Cancer Cell Death.
Smokers are common research subjects for carcinogen studies. For example, see what happens to carcinogen levels when those eating processed meat start eating vegetarian in my video Heterocyclic Amines in Eggs, Cheese, and Creatine? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/heter...).
Other foods that may protect DNA include kiwifruit (Kiwifruit and DNA Repair, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/kiwif...), cruciferous vegetables (DNA Protection from Broccoli, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/dna-p...), leafy vegetables (Eating Green to Prevent Cancer, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/eatin...), garlic (Cancer, Interrupted: Garlic & Flavonoids, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/cance...), green tea (Cancer, Interrupted: Green Tea, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/cance... (but which is better? Antimutagenic Activity of Green Versus White Tea, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/antim...)), and plants in general (Repairing DNA Damage, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/repai...).
More information on cancer prevention, treatment, and reversal can be found in my two latest annual presentations Uprooting the Leading Causes of Death (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/uproo...) and More Than an Apple a Day: Combating Common Diseases (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/more-...).
Have a question for Dr. Greger about this video? Leave it in the comment section at http://nutritionfacts.org/video/carci... and he'll try to answer it!
