Cancer is a disease characterized by growth of abnormal cells that harm the body in various ways. There are more than 100 types of cancer, including breast, skin, ovarian, lung, pancreatic, colon, prostate and lymphoma. Each cancer has a different set of symptoms.

According to the American Cancer Society, cancer is the second most common cause of death in the U.S and as per United States Cancer Statistics: 1999–2011 Incidence and Mortality Web-based Report, more than 575,000 people die of cancer and over 1.5 million new cases are diagnosed each year in the U.S.

Cancer is a group of diseases involving abnormal cell growth with the potential to invade or spread to other parts of the body. Tobacco use is the cause of about 22% of cancer deaths. Another 10% is due to obesity, poor diet, lack of physical activity and drinking alcohol. Other factors include certain infections, exposure to ionizing radiation and environmental pollutants. Many cancers can be prevented by not smoking, maintaining a healthy weight, not drinking too much alcohol, eating plenty of vegetables, fruits and whole grains, vaccination against certain infectious diseases, not eating too much processed and red meat, and avoiding too much sunlight exposure. There are many superfoods rich in antioxidants and phytochemicals that offer anti-cancer benefits. For instance some berries can cause cancer cells to self-destruct, walnuts have the potential to help fight tumors and tomatoes can destroy cancer-causing free radicals in the body.
Here are the list of top 10 cancer-fighting superfoods.

Garlic
Garlic is one of the most powerful anti-cancer food. It has immune enhancing allium compounds that appear to increase the activity of immune cells that fight cancer and indirectly help break down cancer causing substances. These substances also help block carcinogens from entering cells and slow tumor development. Diallyl sulfide, a component of garlic oil, has also been shown to render carcinogens in the liver inactive.

Mushrooms
Mushrooms are one of the most powerful functional foods for preventing and treating cancer. Shiitake mushroom is believed to be effective in fighting the development and progression of cancer by boosting the body’s immune system. Besides shiitake, other varieties of mushroom which boost anti-cancer benefits include Maitake, Reishi and Phellinus Linteus.

Broccoli
Broccoli contain a chemical component called indole-3-carbinol that can combat breast cancer by converting a cancer-promoting estrogen into a more protective variety. It also has the phytochemical sulforaphane that is believed to aid in preventing some types of cancer, like colon and rectal cancer.

Grapes
Grapes are rich in polyphenolic phytochemical compound resveratrol. , which inhibits the enzymes that can stimulate cancer-cell growth and suppress immune response. They also contain ellagic acid, a compound that blocks enzymes that are necessary for cancer cells – this appears to help slow the growth of tumors.

Green Tea
Green tea contain certain antioxidants known as polyphenols which appear to prevent cancer cells from dividing.
According to a report in the July 2001 issue of the Journal of Cellular Biochemistry, these polyphenols that are abundant in green tea may protect against various types of cancer.

Tomato
Lycopene, a flavonoid antioxidant, is a unique phytochemical compound found in the tomatoes. Studies shows that lycopene protects the skin from ultra-violet rays and thus offers some defence against skin cancer. It also contains very good levels of vitamin A, and flavonoid anti-oxidants such as beta carotenes, Zea-xanthin and lutein. These antioxidants are scientifically found to be protective against cancers, including colon, prostate, breast, endometrial, lung, and pancreatic tumors.

Turmeric
Turmeric is an underground root that is believed to have medicinal properties because it inhibits production of the inflammation related enzyme cyclo-oxygenase 2 , levels of which are abnormally high in certain inflammatory diseases and cancers, especially bowel and colon cancer.

Spinach
Spinach is one of the wonderful green-leafy vegetable often recognized as one of the functional foods for its wholesome nutritional, antioxidants and anti-cancer composition. It is an excellent source of the iron which is an integral part of hemoglobin, which transports oxygen from the lungs to all body cells. When cells are well oxygenated there can be no cancer.

Blueberries
Blueberries are among the highest anti-oxidant value fruits. Their antioxidant value largely comes from poly-phenolic anthocyanidin compounds such as chlorogenic acid, tannins, myricetin, quercetin and kaempferol. Additionally they compose of other flavonoid anti-oxidants such as beta carotene, lutein and zea-xanthin.

Pomegranate
It is one of the most popular anti-cancer superfood.
