Anyone who is a follower of Dr Oz, knows he is a big on weightloss, because for obvious reasons being overweight causes many other health problems-heart disease, high blood preasure, diabetes and even cancer. He also is big believer that certain foods in our diet can help to prevent Cancer. Ifact, he has been quoted as saying, that some cancers are 70% preventable. I, too, am a big believer in prevention, unfortunately, because of my family experience and history, Im not such a believer in curing cancer-esp internal organ cancers in a later stage, but I have to believe in prevention. My father passed away from a cancer that is highly hereditary, and a cancer with a litterally a 0% survival rate, so after reading those statistics, I really got on the prevention bandwagon. I dont want to hear about survival rate with/after treatment. So, I drink 3-4 cups of green tea everyday, I eat oats and other forms of fiber everyday, get vitamin C, E, tons of water.
Dr Oz has lots of "anticancer" recipes on his website, that are convenience store friendly. This oatmeal recipe is a snap to make and is packed with antioxidents, and with all the nutrients in oats and calcium in milk, it can help prevent some forms of cancer. Combining the meal with green tea adds a boost of "catachins" which reduce growth of blood vessels needed for tumor growth.
