(NaturalNews) Although chemotherapy-based treatment for cancer has improved somewhat over the decades since it was first introduced, the fact remains that not only are these drugs prohibitively expensive for many people, but they are by no means a panacea. It's a telling fact that 75 percent of the world's physicians refuse chemotherapy for themselves.

The side-effects of chemotherapy can be nearly as devastating as the disease itself, and often the cancer returns after a brief remission period.

Millions of us are now beginning to recognize the effectiveness of a holistic approach to the prevention of cancer – as well as its treatment.

Preventing and treating cancer naturally is far better and much less expensive than chemo and radiation therapy – and although there may be no single natural preventative or "cure" for cancer (except for perhaps cannabis, which has shown great promise in treating numerous cancers), there are many natural methods that, in combination, can greatly reduce the risk of developing cancer. The same methods have, in many cases, also been proven to treat it as – or more – effectively as any existing standard pharmaceutical approach.

The role of diet in a cancer-free lifestyle

The key to holistic cancer prevention and treatment is a healthy diet. From a post by Derek Henry on Blogs.NaturalNews.com:

"First of all, if you are wanting to heal cancer (or prevent it), a very broad solution is to make your diet nearly completely plant based and rooted in low sugar/starches and high in nutrient value. In addition to that, the easier it is for you to assimilate nutrients with as little energy required as possible, the better. This makes juicing, smoothies, soups, herbal teas, fermented foods and beverages, steamed vegetables, and tinctures a top priority."

Henry lists some of the most effective medicinal foods for healing cancer. Among them are the cruciferous vegetables, and these include several that you may not have realized fall into that category, such as horseradish, brown mustard seed and yellow mustard seed.

Here is a list of some of the cruciferous vegetables that you should consider incorporating into your daily diet.

From WHFoods.org:

Arugula
Bok choy
Broccoli
Brussels sprouts
Cabbage
Cauliflower
Chinese cabbage
Collard greens
Daikon radish
Horseradish
Kale
Kohlrabi
Land cress
Mustard greens
Radish
Rutabaga
Shepherd's purse
Turnip
Watercress

Other foods on Henry's healing foods list include sea vegetables such as kelp and nori; algaes such as spirulina and blue-green algae; aloe vera; turmeric; hemp; garlic and medicinal mushrooms.

In addition to these, there are many other fruits and vegetables that are helpful in maintaining a cancer-free lifestyle: lemons, limes, ginger, onions, mint, Granny Smith apples and berries such as strawberries, blueberries and raspberries all have powerful health-promoting properties.

The wonderful thing is that all these foods are inexpensive and available in almost any supermarket. Of course, you should always purchase organic products from trusted sources whenever possible to ensure that you are gaining the maximum benefit.

And by cutting down or eliminating meat from your diet, while also avoiding fatty and processed foods, the risk of your developing cancer drops dramatically.

Not only do the above-listed foods help in prevention and healing, they will make your meals much more interesting and flavorful than the standard junk food diets that many of us have become addicted to.

Escaping the trap

That's one of the big problems with our modern society; profit-minded corporations have duped us into eating stuff that makes us sick – and once we become ill, there are even more profits to be made peddling poisonous drugs that merely address the symptoms. It's a vicious cycle, but one that can be broken with a little awareness and motivation on the part of the individual.

There's no one forcing you to eat unhealthy foods – it's simply a matter of recognizing the trap and walking away from it.

Once you do so, you'll enjoy a much more varied and delicious diet which will make you healthier, happier and cancer-free.
