Guest guest Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 Well I am really sorry that you have ovarian cancer, but you are taking a good proactive stance in thinking about your diet. The cruciferous veggies in their sprout form, like Broccoli,cabbage, have anti-cancer properties. The Brassias (of which broccoli and cabbage are members), have lots of health-enhancing properties. I eat just about all of the sprouts in the brassia family and incorporate a lot of spices in my food, as well as raw garlic. (Fortunately my husband like the same things You didn't ask this, but I would also think about incorporating some probiotics, kombucha, and wheatgrass. I hope you enjoy a solid and steady recovery, marion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 Jerri,I just saw your other post on Wild Fermentation--I agree, it is a great book. I recently tried Sproutpeople's Madison Market mix (soaked pumpkin and sunflower seeds, peanuts, and almonds). All four of those ingredients have health enhancing properties. You might want to consider incorporating some of that into your diet if you haven't already. I think though if you have read Wild Fermentation, you are way ahead of the game.

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 Hi, I just wrote you this nice messsage and my connection to the internet died, and it all went poof. So I'll try again. My mom's family all had cancer in one form or another. This is why I use turmeric every day and eat broccoli sprouts. So get cracking, start sprouting broccoli sprouts, put turmeric on your foods. (just a bit), and do as much as you can to ensure a healthy lifestyle. I do hope you don't smoke). I'm rooting for you. Take care Melody > > I've got it and would like some tips. Once I bought broccoli sprouts and made a spread with it mixed with olive oil and soaked sundflower seeds...yum. > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 Melody,I think you once said there was an Indian food market near where you live (Heck you are in Brooklyn, everything is a subway stop away, no?). Well, I was in the Indian market near my office and they sell fresh tumeric-two types, white and yellow!Turmeric is great for you and does have anti-cancer properties, you are right. I am going to put some in my herb-nut stuffing--no one would be the wiser and think of the health benefits!marion(who misses the subway rides to Rockaway Beach and Coney Island where I spent my Summers) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
