WEST PALM BEACH, FL-- Kelley Herring, has a unique background: a degree in biochemistry and a love of cooking. In 2005 she collaborated with colleagues to come up with an unusual new book.
Kelley Herring, CEO Healing Gourmet Eat to Fight Cancer features Chef Carlino as well as Dr. Simon Liu and Kathy McManus and individuals from the Dana Farber Cancer Institute. We wrote this book with a mission to help people learn to prevent cancer as well as for those who were going through cancer.
Although no one can guarantee that you wont get cancer, certain foods have powerful anticancer properties. One of Chef Carlinos recipes uses raw bok choy, asparagus, carrots and red peppers and tosses them in a vinaigrette of rice wine vinegar, sesame oil and ginger, along with lemon juice, scallions, and cilantro. He tops it with grilled wild shrimp.
The recipe that Chef Carlino is preparing today has a number of cancer fighting benefits. The first one is using organic cruciferous vegetables and instead of cooking them were keeping them raw. This preserves their cancer fighting activity…
The next thing you want to increase your Omega III fatty acids…Omega 3 fats are those found in wild fish, salmon, sardines any of the wild Alaskan fish.
So, what are some of Kelleys most important suggestions?
Keep your blood sugar level - carb rich foods increase insulin levels.
Increase your omega 3 fatty acids found in fish and shrimp.
Eat more fruits and vegetables. Avoid xenoestrogens, chemicals which are estrogen mimics found in some farmed fish and pesticides.
Alcohol is a known cancer promoter so reduce alcohol consumption.
Take Vitamin D, which doctors now believe helps prevent cancer.
Experts believe these simple steps can help promote a healthy immune system.
