via fb post [https://www.upworthy.com/freezing-bread/]

freezing bread: digestible starches become resistant starches, which don’t get digested in the small intestine, and instead move to the large intestine to be digested by our “good” gut bacteria. In this way, the resistant starches act more like prebiotics. Think of the money you’ll save on fiber supplements!.. While this doesn’t significantly reduce calories (boo), the resulting benefits can include better blood sugar levels, a controlled appetite, a healthier gut microbiome, a reduced risk of colon cancer, improved digestion, and even lower cholesterol levels.

5 foods that starve cancer via tweet/thread [https://x.com/Manifest_Lord/status/2065823299444093035?s=20]:

1: FIBER IS THE SINGLE MOST UNDERRATED CANCER FIGHTER

Only 5% of Americans get enough fiber. This is not a minor gap. This is a crisis.

A meta-analysis found that for every 10 grams of fiber added to the diet, survival after breast cancer improved by 13%.

Fiber feeds your gut bacteria. Your gut bacteria regulate inflammation. Dr. Mussallem’s rule: at least 30 grams of fiber daily from whole foods. Not powders.

Inflammation drives tumor growth.

2: PULSES — THE PROTEIN BIG FOOD DOESN’T SELL YOU

Lentils. Black beans. Chickpeas. Kidney beans. Pinto beans. Split peas.

Dr. Mussallem prescribes 1 cup daily to her cancer patients.

Pulses replace animal protein while delivering 15g of fiber per cup. They feed gut bacteria that produce butyrate a compound that triggers cancer cell death and protects the colon lining.

3: EDAMAME — THE FOOD MOST WOMEN FEAR FOR THE WRONG REASON

For 30 years, women were told soy causes breast cancer. Dr. Mussallem says this is one of the most damaging myths in nutrition.

The key word is whole. Edamame, tempeh, tofu, miso. Not soy protein isolate. Not processed soy in protein bars.

4: CRUCIFEROUS VEGETABLES YOUR DETOXIFICATION ENGINE

Broccoli. Cauliflower. Brussels sprouts. Cabbage. Kale. Bok choy.

These contain sulforaphane a compound that activates your NRF2 pathway, your body’s master detoxification switch.

1-2 cups of cruciferous vegetables daily, lightly steamed or chopped raw (chopping activates the enzyme that produces sulforaphane).

5: KIWI — THE FRUIT NOBODY EATS

This one shocked Dr. Mussallem’s own team. Kiwi contains vitamin C, vitamin E, polyphenols, and a unique enzyme called actinidin that supports gut health and protein digestion.

A study showed eating 2 kiwis daily for 4 weeks increased DNA repair capacity by 60% and reduced oxidative damage to cells.

DNA damage that goes unrepaired is how healthy cells become tumor cells

Kiwi is one of the highest antioxidant fruits per calorie. It also improves sleep quality and poor sleep accelerates tumor growth.

IODINE – Feeling cold, Weakness, Low thyroid function,fatigue

Vitamin A: Vision, immunity, and tissue growth. Deficiency can lead to night blindness.

(but like zinc.. also found out too much can create imbalance/build-up.. killing nails?)

Vitamin K: Clots your blood when you’re injured. Deficiency increases bleeding risk.
