Browsing the English newspapers immediately after the splendid feat of our soccer blues, our eye fell on a really interesting piece of news. Among the foods of a healthy and long life, one also prevents female cancers according to research from the University of Southampton.
A famous British oncologist, whose article was also featured in the British Journal of Nutrition, dealt with the matter. Let’s see this text together with our readers, which in some ways is truly incredible. To tell the truth, the research is part of a much larger collection of texts that demonstrate the importance of salads and vegetables in the fight against cancer. Few people know that this simple and inexpensive vegetable can prevent especially female cancers.
These substances with such a challenging name
According to the same people in their research, watercress is: “the salad that can heal”, demonstrating how many nutrients this so beneficial vegetable contains. Specifically, inside there are substances with a complicated and almost unpronounceable name: isothiocyanates. They are phytonutrients present in many vegetables and particularly in watercress and salads. British medical research, although in continuous development, claims that these substances are able to anticipate cancer cells.

Indeed, watercress would be particularly recommended for women because it can prevent and do well against typically female cancers. According to the doctors, in fact, many of the patients with breast or uterine cancer, often feeding on watercress, would have shown a reduction in the 4E protein. that unfortunately linked to the development and advancement of tumors. We also attach a study from our AIRC which further testifies to the importance of fiber and vegetable nutrients in the fight against cancer.
Due to its richness in minerals, vitamins and fibers, watercress is particularly suitable in the diets of those who must and want to literally detoxify from smoking. Let’s not forget that its nutrients so useful for the liver and pancreas strengthen the bones and enrich the skin.
