A study from Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston found that women who ate five servings of raw carrot pieces per week experienced a reduction in ovarian cancer risk greater (54 percent) than those who only ate carrots less than once a month. In addition, carrots are also able to reduce the risk of kidney cancer.

Add the chopped tomatoes

Not only add flavor, the content of lycopene in tomatoes also play a role against cancer. Studies from Germany involving 165 colonoscopy patients found those with the lowest lycopene content in the blood have a number of colorectal adenomas (a sign of colorectal cancer) the highest. In addition, tomatoes are also reducing the risk of prostate cancer.
