Hi, I am working in a lab and always dealing with carcinogenic reagents. Besides preventing direct contact, is there any food/ supplement that i can take to reduce chances of getting cancer?
Ermm…thanks but I am a vegetarian…

If your statement is true and you are working in a lab with cancer causing agents, then you already know the answer. There is NO diet that can prevent, or cure cancer. No matter what some herbalist say or homeopaths say, it is not true. I know because I believed the same thing and while being a complete fool and actually thinking "maybe they’re on to something." I used a so called herb to prevent cancer. Well, that didn’t work out so well. While on it after 1 yr. I developed breast cancer. Makes you wonder, what really was the cause. I know I’ll never fall those stupid scams again.

ADD Lo-Mcg. I just read your answer and I have to say, you made me laugh. I’ve never heard the saying "claptrap" I needed that.

    A healthy diet is always important, but it won’t stop you getting cancer.

    There are no foods or supplements proven to prevent or reduce the risk of cancer. Similarly there are no foods proven to cause it, or to affect the course of any cancer – though a diet high in red and processed meat is a known risk factor for colorectal cancers.

    It is claptrap to say a vegetarian diet will reduce the risk of cancer.

    I have been a vegetarian most of my life and a vegan for many years. I was diagnosed with an aggressive cancer after over 8 years as a vegan, and through breast cancer support networks have met three other vegans with breast cancer (one a lifelong vegan) and dozens of vegetarians with breast cancer.

    There’s plenty of good science that supports the diet high in a variety of fresh vegetables and fruits as protective against a number of different cancers. I had the same discussion at a scientific meeting with one of the MD researchers for the American Cancer Society in Atlanta about 2 weeks ago. See the updated reference from the World Cancer Research Fund and the American Institute for Cancer Research. This is real, and really important. Keep reading and learning,

    best to you,
