Prevent cancer with these 10 foods ingredients!

In case you heard from other persons who had already cancer, it's most likely that they will tell you of a life changing event. Many of these cancer survivors will tell you that it is important to find the right foods which

• will help your body to regain strength and
• help you to keep you much healthier after you won the fight
• could prevent cancer in your body at all
  

The modern research has shown that some ingredients in fruits and vegetables exists which help them to prevent developing diseases!

These "chemicals" are called phytochemicals and some of them can be found in:

1. Flavonoids: found in red cabbage, beetroot, red onion and tomatoes, which inhibits cancer.
   
   
2. Glucosinolates: found in carrots, tomatoes, red capsicum and dark green vegetables, which were found to prevent cancer of the intestines.
   
   
3. Carotenoids: found in carrots, tomatoes, red capsicum and dark green vegetables; stimulates the immune system.
   
   
4. Sulfides: found in onions, garlic, chives as well as spring onions; they have anti cancer protection.
   
   
5. Lycopene: found in tomatoes, reduces the risk of both prostate and breast cancer.
   
   
6. Sulforaphane: are in broccoli and other cruciferous vegetables believed to aid in the preventing some types of cancer.
   

These phytochemicals are in freshly grown plant food but are destroyed or removed by modern processing.

The following food items have been found beneficial to a person with cancer:

1. Red grapes: which contain resperatrol, also found in red wine.
   
   
2. Turmeric: a member of the ginger family. Its active ingredients are curcumin and possesses numerous anti cancer properties. This is the yellow in curry powder.
   
   
3. Garlic: contains allium and several studies has shown it to be an anti cancer agent.
   
   
4. Ginger: has an anti cancer effect on the human body as it blocks the tendency of some carcinogens to cause mutations in the DNA.

As always, i'm not a doctor and everyone is responsible for their own actions. This is just a compilation of foods which could be preventing cancer and stopping the money-intensive treatments in chemo therapies and so on.
For sure, most of the doctors don't want to tell you this as they make a living from sick clients and not from healthy ones.

But it's always better to prevent disease yourself than taking your time to wait at the doctor for giving you some medicines which have sometimes more side effects than doing much good to your body.

How to use Google to get the best results -Part I-

What are you doing when you open Google ?

Do you just type in a keyword or a sentence and look on the first page which results Google presents you?

Hmm, perhaps you should take another look at Google and use it's full power by choosing different settings for your search results?

Here my series of "How to get the best search results with Google" will start. You will find a lot of new options and settings to get better search results and perhaps find some other interesting stuff with Google!

Show options

Did you recognize already that after you entered your keyword, you will see in the top left corner under the search term a link named "Show options"?

What is hidden behind this link?

First of all, it will open a small menu on the left hand side of your search results. There you can find the following items and new search and filter options

1. All results, video, blogs, forums
   
2. Any time, recent results, results from the last hour, 24 hours, past week, past year, specific date range
3. Standard view, Related searches, Wonder wheel
   
4. Standard results, Image from the pages, Fewer/more shopping sites, more text
   

Let's look for today on the first two options. Sometimes you just want to find results which are not from the mainstream media or the news agencies.

Therefore you can choose now more precisely the information, may it be just what persons are writing about this topic on their blogs or in forums or if they posted some videos about your specific keyword.

Now you could narrow your results a little bit more by not only choosing a specific website category but also by choosing different time frames.

If the news is so actual like perhaps the death of a celebrity like Micheal Jackson, in this case it happen that Google shows you older news at first as they are already established and kind of "branded"!
Then it could be necessary that you just want to see the most actual news which were released in the last hour or in the past 24 hours. Click the links and you will get the desired results within a second.

After you choose one of the time options, another option appears - Sort by relevance or sort by date. You can play with these now, too. Usually relevance is more useful for me :)

It will be from now on an easy game for youb y clicking the link "Show options" to find faster, easier and better search results in Google!

Next time we look at the last two options and some more tweaks for better search results in Google!

Apology for the Blog Layout!

I'm sorry that the blog is at the moment without any graphics :(

I'm using a FREE Blogger template for this blog and the person who provided this template does seldom upgrade his Photobucket account.

It seems in the last two months that his bandwidth gets exceeded in the last week of each month. I hope i can download the pictures as soon as his account is upgraded again.

I thought perhaps it's better now to store the used pictures here in Blogger/Picassa as they provide 1 Gigabyte free space and unlimited download volume and you could open several accounts for free with each of them giving you additional 1 Gigabyte free space :)
But on the other side it's quite time-consuming to change the link code for each picture.
