More than one million people are diagnosed with stomach cancer each year. It is very common in many parts of the world, including the US; however, recent reports show that the rates of stomach cancer are rising worldwide, especially among young people in the UK.

One of the problems with stomach cancer is that it frequently goes undetected until it is too late. There are no lumps, often no pain other than indigestion, and nothing that shows up on an X-ray. This means that, often, the only way to find it is through an endoscope, which is a camera that is inserted down the throat so that the stomach can be examined. Once this type of cancer is discovered, it can also be notorious to treat.

OK, that sounds like a whole bunch of bad news. The good news is that there are plenty of foods that can protect you from this type of cancer, or have even been shown to destroy cancer cells.

Keep reading and find out which 20 foods are simply the best at knocking out stomach cancer.

 

1. Kale

Kale has a very broad nutritional profile that offers us plenty of benefits beyond its basic nutritional profile. This member of the cabbage family has tons of cancer fighting compounds, including vitamin C and beta-carotene. In fact, ounce for ounce, kale has ten times the beta-carotene of broccoli.

Kale is super high in powerful antioxidants which kill off the free radicals that cause so many health problems and premature aging. Young, tender kale leaves can be added to salads and more mature leaves can be baked or sautéed with other vegetables. Since it’s a known cancer fighter, doesn’t it make sense to add it to your meals any way you can?
