As the science of Nutrigenomics and Epigenetics evolve, the evidence of the healing power of simple fruits and vegetables is mounting. Celery may be one of those vegetables that you have not paid much attention to, but after reading this article, I am sure you will want to incorporate it in your juicing and smoothies.
Aside from being loaded with Vitamins K, C and A, folate, potassium and trace minerals, it has a unique compound that has been shown to enhance cognitive function in Alzheimer's disease, prevent cardiovascular disease and H. Pylori stomach infections.
There are 2 specific flavonoids in celery, apigenin and luteolin, that have shown promise against various types of cancer.
But the most exciting news for women who are being proactive with prevention or who are on a healing journey, is the compound apigenin. This flavonoid that is found in celery has shown promise as a potential non-toxic treatment for HER2 Breast Cancer.
How does a plant extract have so much power over cancer? First, it decreases a vascular growth factor (VEGF) that stimulates formation of new blood vessels that feed tumors. When cancer cells divide and create a tumor, they need food and blood supply, so they create their own. Apigenin stops the development of these new blood vessels so tumors can't grow.
Next it keeps Breast Cancer cells from dividing and proliferating.
Lastly, it causes Breast Cancer cells to die off. By nature, cancer cells never die since they have a specific cellular pathway that keeps them from dying.
That is the whole premise behind chemotherapy - KILL the cancer cells with strong poison. The problem is that form of treatment often kills the patient or creates the environment for another cancer to develop.
CANCER CANNOT GROW IN A HEALTHY BODY.
Being healthy is really not that complicated in the end. Follow The 7 Essentials and you never have to fear cancer again. Drink at least 1 quart of green juice or smoothie every day, always adding many sticks of celery so that you can have your daily dose of powerful cancer killing apigenin.
Here is a quick and easy recipe for my GREEN BREAKFAST BLAST:
Green juices are a great way to start out your day. These super foods are loaded with vitamins, minerals and protein. Kale is part of the Brassica family that includes cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and cabbage. Kale is high in vitamins A, C, K and minerals such as copper, manganese, potassium and iron. The fiber in kale binds bile acids and helps to lower the "bad" cholesterol. Enjoy this drink anytime during the day as a "pick-me-up". I enjoy it in the morning because the lemon gets those digestive juices flowing. Bon Appétit!
It goes without saying that all the ingredients must be organic.
Prepare the following for your juicer:
1 lemon, cut in 4
4 celery stalks
4 large kale leaves
2 large Chard leaves
1 green apple, cut in 8
Juice and enjoy.
