3 ways to spot a cancer-fighting food

#1: Is it brightly colored? That means lots of plant nutrients that fight cancer and boost your immune system.

#2: Is it from the cabbage family? Cruciferous vegetables seem to block cancer-causing chemicals.

#3: Does it have a strong flavor? Pungent, tart, sour, juicy: All signs of cancer-fighting "phytochemicals."
