The Power of Antiangiogenic Foods
Many years ago I watched Dr. William Li (on the Dr. Oz show), as he explained how he was curing/preventing cancer with food. (Fascinating! Tell me more....)
Dr. Li explained that a tumor needs to form blood vessels in order to grow/spread; a process known as Angiogenesis. Approved antiangiogenic medications are currently being used for cancer treatments and they work by blocking the tumor from its blood supply.
But most importantly, researchers now understand that there are also many foods that can effectively prevent the formation of these vessels, hence preventing/starving a tumor.
