Here is a study done about prostate cancer and curcummin which is

found in several vegetables. This study should also apply to breast

cancer and other cancers

Rutgers researchers have found that the curry spice turmeric holds realpotential for the treatment and prevention of prostatecancer, particularly when combined with certain vegetables.The scientists tested turmeric, also known as curcumin, along with phenethylisothiocyanate (PEITC), a naturally occurring substance particularly abundantin a group of vegetables that includes watercress, cabbage, winter cress,broccoli, Brussels sprouts, kale, cauliflower, kohlrabi and turnips. "Thebottom line is that PEITC and curcumin, alone or in combination, demonstratesignificant cancer-preventive qualities in laboratory mice, and thecombination of PEITC and curcumin could be effective in treating establishedprostate cancers," said Ah-Ng Tony Kong, a professor of pharmaceutics atRutgers, The State University of New Jersey.The discovery was announced in the Jan. 15 issue of the journal CancerResearch by Kong and his colleagues at Rutgers' Ernest School ofPharmacy.
