Dr. Oz brought a guest expert on the show today to discuss the high correlation between excess fat and cancer. They went through the primary types of cancer that are directly or indirectly involved in this process to try to help audience members make the connection.

Dr. Oz and Body Fat That Causes Cancer

The Endocrine System and the Immune System are thrown out of Balance when you are overweight, obese, or have excess belly fat. Hormones are produced which trigger biochemical responses that lead to undesirable consequences like the growth of cancer cells.

The key is not to gain any more weight and to reduce the excess belly fat that has accumulated due to one’s Lifestyle. The two explained the essential value of many whole foods that fight the battle on both sides.

Whether you are looking for anthocyanins or just the pink and purple color in fruit and vegetables, the magic of colorful foods cannot be underestimated. Regardless of which type of cancer was being described, the ‘name of the game’ to effectively deal with it was to eat whole and fresh foods. That’s not new to you and I, but doctors and researchers are just figuring it out.

We don’t really have to go over the foods that were mentioned, just know that they are all included in a balanced whole foods diet of whole grains, beans, legumes, seeds, nuts, healthy oils, fish, fresh fruit, and fresh vegetables.

There’s no other better way to beat cancer and fat simultaneously… Eat it to beat it!
