Is there a new way to help fight and possibly defeat cancer? Recent studies say yes. In my Biology class we recently watched a TED talk on angiogenesis, and how eating certain foods can stop it. This was a very interesting talk as I have been interested in learning about cancer.
Angiogenesis is when an excessive amount of blood vessels form from a pre-existing vessel. These excessive blood vessels begin feeding tumors which allows them to grow and become very harmful. The TED talk proposed that there are certain foods that can stop angiogenesis. They have successfully proven by injecting the amount of the food that you would receive from eating it into and around cancer cells that this method shrinks tumors, and could potentially rid you entirely of them.
Personally, I believe there is quite a bit of potential for this method. I think there is always a way to cure things naturally and this may be just that. Even if you do not have cancer anti-agiogenic foods are still very healthy, and will help with muscle growth, and losing weight.
