Raw Food and Cancer Prevention - Eat Healthy For Life

It has been estimated that 30–40 percent of all cancers can be prevented by lifestyle and dietary measures alone. Obesity, nutrient sparse foods such as concentrated sugars and refined flour products that contribute to impaired glucose metabolism (which leads to diabetes), low fiber intake, consumption of red meat, and imbalance of omega 3 and omega 6 fats all contribute to excess cancer risk. Intake of flax seed, and abundant portions of fruits and vegetables will lower cancer risk. Green, dense vegetables are especially beneficial, with broccoli sprouts being the densest source of sulfurous elements. Protective elements in a cancer prevention diet include selenium, folic acid, vitamin B-12, vitamin D, chlorophyll, and antioxidants such as the carotene based foods.

Why would you not want to greatly reduce your chances of getting Cancer by just simply eating the right foods in your daily diet.
