Plant based diets showed lowest risk.
6. 7. Eat More Garlic:
Garlic consumption may reduce the risk of
developing several types of cancer,
especially cancers of the gastrointestinal

Protective effects from garlic may arise
from its antibacterial properties or from
its ability to block the formation of
cancer-causing substances
7. 6. Eat A Rainbow of Plant Antioxidants:
The deep, bright colors of fruits,
vegetables, herbs and spices contributes a
wide variety of antioxidants to the diet.
Examples of antioxidant rich, deeply
pigmented foods are blueberries,
