Recently I went to Trader Joe's and found some products that I thought were a great way to fight cancer by eating healthy and avoiding toxins and chemicals, or "free radicals" which promote the growth and development of cancer. Here are some of my favorites:
Finally, Bacon without Nitrates. Also free of preservatives and MSG.
Heart Healthy, Organic Cereal with Blueberries (anti-oxidants) and fiber, which helps prevent colon cancer.
Nitrate and Nitrite free, MSG free all natural hot dogs. Avoid unnecessary toxins and free radicals.
These tasty whole-wheat crackers make a nice addition to soups, or just an easy, healthy snack, with fiber to help prevent colon cancer.
These all-natural whole-grain corn chips have a nice nutty flavor and are very addictive.
Dried Blueberries, with no preservatives or artificial chemicals, are one of the highest sources of anti-oxidants that help to fight against cancer.
This herbal tea gives a double punch of anti-oxidants, with both green tea and blueberries.
Here is a laundry soap we have tried which is free of phosphates and better for the environment, free of caustic chemicals.
According to a study at Harvard University and the Medical College of Wisconsin, chlorinated drinking water has been linked to small increases in the rates of rectal and bladder cancer. To view the full article published by the New York Times, go to this link.

Because of this risk, you may consider using a water filter which removes chlorine from drinking water. The British Berkefeld filter claims to remove chlorine as well as other toxins from drinking water. You can find one of their popular filters at this site:

Not only is consuming chlorine a risk, but chlorine gas which is released from hot, running water can also be a risk to your health.
Another source of exposure to chlorine gas is in cleaning products. The Melaleuca company offers a line of eco-friendly and non-toxic cleaning products, called "Eco Sense" which use natural products to disinfect and clean, and are free of chlorine, ammonia and phosphates.
