Dr. Oz and Stomach Cancer

Dr. Oz invited a fellow expert to share which foods appear to help in this battle. First the foods that are high in anti-oxidants which contain orange pigments were identified. This includes butternut squash and pumpkin which were on the table display. Although the pumpkin was in a can and ideally, you should eat fresh pumpkin and squash to get all of the nutrients and energy from these foods. Squash are especially easy to find during the fall and winter months.

It’s simple to make healthy dishes using squash that has been roasted in the oven, sauteed in the pan, turned into soup, pie, or steamed to perfection. Pumpkin and squash do well with winter spices like cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, ginger, and allspice. Garlic and onion harmonize with these as well.

Dr. Oz sampled some recipes offered by audience members for the foods presented on the table.

The second and third tables included red beans like aduki and kidney beans, pinto beans, all types of beans, and sauerkraut.

In the past, we’ve discussed the value of seaweed like wakame and kombu, root vegetables like sweet potatoes, fresh citrus fruit like oranges or lemons or limes, and cruciferous vegetables like cabbage.

It’s significant to note that the experts are repeatedly telling people to eliminate processed foods from their diets and to include more Raw Foods and Whole Foods for optimal health and wellness.

The methods of food preparation are also put into play in the role of food in keeping the body free from cancer. What you put into your mouth that goes into your stomach is of vital importance. Even the liquids are going to have a profound impact on the stomach.

If you are experiencing the symptoms that Dr. Oz discussed, then a change in diet is going to prove to be useful. You can also soothe your stomach with organic peppermint tea, China Cola, and Ginger Ale that is made from organic ginger root and natural ingredients.

Dr. Oz shared the stage with experts who told the audience that cured meats with nitrites and nitrates need to be eliminated along with the bacteria h. pylori which is prevalent in many people’s stomachs. We have told you in the past that the use of GSE in purified water will help to destroy these bacteria.
