Balanced diet to a Balanced Life

In today's economy, everything is getting more expensive. The merchants sell less without increasing the price. Like for example, I noticed with ice cream that used to be 1.8 quartz, now it is 1.5 quartz. It is apparent that the economy is going down. But anyway, ice cream is not really good for us. In this present situation we must learn how to eat well and prevent diseases such as cancer. There are cancer fighting foods to eat. A balanced diet is the key to a balanced life. Here are the foods that we should take instead of junk foods:

Leafy greens: Deep green leafy vegetables are packed with lutein, vitamin A and folate, nutrients that may help prevent colon and ovarian cancer.

Cruciferous veggies: These contain phytochemicals that may cut the risk of stomach, breast and skin cancer. Like for example Broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower

Berries: These fruits contain antioxidants such as polyphenols, which counteract and repair cell damage

Tomatoes: Studies suggest that having a tomato-rich diet may help lower the risk of developing both lung and stomach cancer.
Carrots: Rich in beta carotene and Vit. A
