Eat to Defeat Cancer

A few months back I heard a TED talk given by Dr. William Li that completely captured my attention. It's titled "Can We Eat To Starve Cancer?", and in it he says this:

"The obvious thing is to think about what we could remove from our diet. But I took a completely opposite approach and began asking: What could we be adding to our diet that could boost the body’s defense system? In other words, can we eat to starve cancer?”

I love the idea of turning the focus from the negativity of what we shouldn't be eating (processed food! dairy! red meat! GMOs!) to a more proactive approach of what we should be eating. It's amazing, just with that simple shift in thinking, what's been making its way into the kitchen and onto our table. Listen for yourself and see what you think.
