Here’s a Surprise Anti-cancer Nutrient Found in Common Foods and Nine Foods That Have It

Posted on September 22, 2024November 25, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on Here’s a Surprise Anti-cancer Nutrient Found in Common Foods and Nine Foods That Have It

A flavonoid found in common foods has been found to have potent anti-cancer properties in laboratory tests. In vitro, it’s been shown to slow the growth of cancer and appears to induce apoptosis or natural cancer cell death in several cancers. Some of the cancers studied include cancers of the prostate, cervix, lung, breast, colon, ovary and leukemia. It’s a flavonoid called quercetin, in vivo, studies have shown that quercetin has a cytotoxic effect on ovarian cancer cells indicating it should be studied for cancer treatment. Nine of the best dietary sources of “quercetin” include apple peels, onions, berries, grapes, broccoli kale, green tea, capers, and citrus fruit. So if you want to reduce your risk of cancer, consider adding these foods to your diet.

8 Plant-based Foods that Have More Calcium Per Gram Than Milk

Posted on September 20, 2024November 25, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on 8 Plant-based Foods that Have More Calcium Per Gram Than Milk

For decades we’ve been told that we have to drink milk to get enough calcium in order to prevent osteoporosis. But they never tell you that this concept is controversial because the countries that consume the most dairy have the most osteoporosis. For example the prevalence of osteoporosis in the US is about 12.6%. In the Philippines, the prevalence of osteoporosis is just 2.5% but they consume less than 10% of the amount of milk that we do in the US. So where should we get calcium? Here are 8 plant-based sources of calcium that are higher per gram than milk. Milk has about 120 milligrams per 100 grams, kale has a 150 milligrams per 100 grams, choice some has about 150 milligrams, turnip greens about 190 milligrams, kelp about 200 milligrams, collard greens about 232 milligrams, dulce about 250 milligrams, tofu 350 milligrams if set with calcium sulfate, Japanese seaweed hijiki has 800 milligrams of calcium per 100 grams. So consider these foods for your calcium sources.

Better Sleep, Better Circulation, and Less Pain and Inflammation with “earthing” also known as…

Posted on September 19, 2024November 25, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on Better Sleep, Better Circulation, and Less Pain and Inflammation with “earthing” also known as…

Here are 3 benefits of “earthing”. Harness mother earth’s power to heal. “Earthing” or “Grounding” is the practice of making direct contact with the Earth’s surface. It is believed that this connection allows electrons from the earth to transfer into the body helping to neutralize free radicals and reduce inflammation. Here are 3 research based examples of the benefits of earthing. No. 1, research has shown that earthing can significantly reduce inflammation and pain by neutralizing free radicals as demonstrated by lower inflammatory markers and reducing chronic pain associated with arthritis and other inflammatory conditions. No. 2, earthing has also been found to improve sleep quality, research found that earth grounded individuals reported better sleep apparently due to the stabilization of night time cortisol levels. No. 3, earthing also improves blood flow and preliminary research suggests that it can reduce blood pressure by as much as 20%. To practice earthing, walk barefoot on natural surfaces such as on grass or sand, for 20 to 30 minutes daily or use grounding mats indoors.

Change your gut, Flora change your cancer risk? Colon cancer is increasing in young people, possibly

Posted on August 25, 2024November 17, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on Change your gut, Flora change your cancer risk? Colon cancer is increasing in young people, possibly

Colon cancer is the 3rd most common cancer in the US, and what’s alarming is that this is beginning to occur in younger and younger people, so how do we prevent it? Research is pointing toward dietary factors, because people are consuming processed and junk food at a younger and younger age. One emerging factor is gut flora, researchers have found that colon cancer is associated with an intestinal bacteria called fusobacterium nucleatum. Scientists believe that this gut flora suppresses the immune system that fights cancer which allows colon cancer to form. Research on dietary intervention shows that a high fat diet and red meat increase the species of gut flora and is associated with higher risk of colon cancer. Research also reveals that fiber, whole grain, fruit, and vegetables reduce the prevalence of fusobacterium nucleatum and is associated with less colon cancer. So to reduce your risk of colon cancer, consider eating more fiber, whole grain, whole vegetables and fruit and less fat and red meat.

A large study links meet to diabetes

Posted on August 22, 2024November 17, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on A large study links meet to diabetes

Researchers in 2024 analyzed data from nearly 2 million adults over a 10 year period and they found a 15% increase in risk of type 2 diabetes for every 1.8 ounces of processed meat they ate each day. And a 10% increase in risk for every 3 and a half ounces of unprocessed red meat they consume daily. While this isn’t proof of causation. There are at least 4 ways that meat can contribute to type 2 diabetes. No. 1, red meat tends to be high in saturated fat which is known to cause insulin resistance. No. 2, red and processed meat is associated with obesity in most studies. No. 3, meat increases TMAO or trimethylamine and oxide which interferes with insulin signaling. No. 4, heme iron which is in red meat is inflammatory and maybe toxic to the pancreas. So to reduce your risk of diabetes, consider cutting back on your meat intake and increase your intake of beans, whole grains, fruit, and vegetables which are associated with less diabetes.

What food is associated with 31% less cancer risk? Scientist in a published study in 2024

Posted on August 19, 2024November 17, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on What food is associated with 31% less cancer risk? Scientist in a published study in 2024

For years, researchers have noticed that overall cancer rates, especially cancers of the breast, prostate, lung and colon were much lower in Asian countries compared to European countries. Scientists wondered if there were specific factors in the Asian diet that help to prevent cancer in general. A large meta analysis published in 2024 that looked at a total of 52 studies found that people who ate the most soy food had a 31% lower risk of total cancer incidence compared to those who had to eat the least. They were looking at soy foods including tofu, miso, soy milk, and natto. Researchers believed that the isoflavones in the soy foods played a major role in the reduction in cancer risk because isoflavones are anti-inflammatory and have tumor suppression properties. Also soy foods have fiber plant based protein and healthy fats, of course other factors may play a role in causing cancer but for good health it may be useful to add soy foods to your list of foods to eat regularly.
