Beat brain cancer with garlic

It seems like every day scientists are discovering new ways to fight against cancer. While many of these treatments come in the profile of drugs, there’s plus a growing number of foods that have been proven to be effective against the disease.

The latest research has found that folks can beat brain cancer — even destroy potentially deadly tumors — simply by eating garlic. In the study, scientists learned that three garlic compounds — DAS, DADS, and DATS — kill brain cancer cells by creating chemical reactions that basically gorge the cells to death.

There’s further research that needs to be conducted to fully understand that discovery, but in the meanwhile, whether you’re interested in using garlic for its cancer-fighting qualities, remember that you need to peel garlic and let it sit

for 15 minutes prior to cooking with it. In that date, the enzyme that produces the anti-cancer compound will be released.

Also, it’s crucial not to go overboard. Too much garlic can cause diarrhea, and even internal bleeding. So, as always, it’s best to check with your doctor before self-medicating.
