DESCRIPTION: Which was associated with lowest breast cancer risk in African-American women? Apples, bananas, broccoli, cabbage, cantaloupe, carrots, collard greens, grapefruit, oranges, spinach, tomatoes, or sweet potatoes? More on collards in Eating Green to Prevent Cancer (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/eating-green-to-prevent-cancer/), Prevent Glaucoma and See 27 Miles Farther (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/prevent-glaucoma-and-see-27-miles-farther/), and Egg Industry Blind Spot (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/egg-industry-blind-spot/). More on carrots in Benzene in Carrot Juice (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/benzene-in-carrot-juice/), Crop Nutrient Decline (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/crop-nutrient-decline/), and Best Cooking Method (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/best-cooking-method/). And more on broccoli and breast cancer, see DNA Protection From Broccoli (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/dna-protection-from-broccoli/), Broccoli Versus Breast Cancer Stem Cells (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/broccoli-versus-breast-cancer-stem-cells/), and Sulforaphane From Broccoli to Breast (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/sulforaphane-from-broccoli-to-breast/). Certain African populations were among the healthiest on Earth, inspiring one of America's lifestyle medicine pioneers. See Engineering a Cure (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/engineering-a-cure/). Sadly, African-Americans suffer disproportionately from chronic diseases, but the good news is that many of them—such as high blood pressure and diabetes—can be prevented, stopped, and reversed with a healthy plant-based diet.
