Cabbage
Cabbage, which is loaded with vitamin C, is part of the cruciferous vegetable family, which has been shown to reduce the risk of several types of cancer. Other cruciferous vegetables include broccoli, kale, collard greens, and brussel sprouts, which can all lower the risk of prostate and breast cancer. Their cancer fighting properties stem from the high levels of glucosinolates, which our body metabolizes into isothiocyanates, powerful anti-carcinogens. I make a slaw with a very easy wasabi and rice wine vinegar, add some carrots and purple cabbage for some color - yum!
