| Thus almonds and sour apples; tahini (hulled sesame butter) and lemon sauce; yogurt and strawberries; and cottage cheese and grapefruit are all acceptable combinations of high-fat proteins with acid fruits.
Even though acid retards the digestion of protein, it does this no more than the abundance of fat in a high-fat protein food. Moreover, acids actually help in the digestion of fats, and if combined with protein before it is eaten, also help break down protein chains. |

LJ Take 200 to 800 international units of vitamin E daily. Vitamin E activates the cancer-fighting properties of lycopene. Make sure to take vitamin E supplements rather than relying on dietary vitamin E in eggs and nuts. Only alpha-tocopherol, rather than the other tocopherols also found in food-derived vitamin E, has this effect.
_J Whenever possible, get twenty to thirty minutes of sunlight exposure every day (but be sure to avoid heat stress). | | Laboratory studies have found that quercetin from grapefruit and orange juice reduces the rate of growth of breast cancer cells by 50 percent. The extract also stops chemical processes that give ovarian cancer cells a growth advantage over healthy cells, and increases the tumor-killing capacity of the cancer drug cisplatin (Platinol), while reducing its side effects.
Quercetin plays a special role in the supplemental treatment of multidrug-resistance. Cancer cells eventually become resistant to chemotherapy drugs. | | Eating a grapefruit half at bedtime also helps.
LJ Go to bed only when you are sleepy.
Intermittent Claudication
Circulation problems are generally caused by arteries that are too narrow to carry adequate amounts of blood. Arteries become narrow if cholesterol gathers in the artery linings to form plaques, which can then calcify into blood-vessel blockages. This process, known as arteriosclerosis, can lead to intermittent claudication, a painful circulation problem in the legs. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Other sources of lycopene are watermelon, guava, and pink grapefruit. Lycopene is scarce in other vegetables.
Lycopene may be the reason why men who ate ten or more servings a week of tomato products developed 45-percent fewer prostate cancers than men who ate fewer than two servings in a 1995 study of 47,000 health professionals. So it seems that eating ten or more servings weekly of tomatoes or other red or pink fruits may confer some protection against prostate cancer.

INHIBITORS OF PHASE I DETOXIFICATION
Drugs
Benzodiazepines (e.g., Halcion, Centrax, Librium,
Valium, etc. | | To ensure that Phase I is working well, we recommend that you eat plenty of
• Brassica-family foods (cabbage, broccoli, and brussels sprouts)
• Vitamin B-rich foods (nutritional yeast, whole grains)
• Vitamin C-rich foods (peppers, cabbage, and tomatoes)
• Citrus foods (oranges and tangerines, but not grapefruit)
Phase II Detoxification
Phase II detoxification involves a process called conjugation, in which various enzymes in the liver attach small chemicals to the toxin. | | In one study of seven juices (cranberry, blueberry, grapefruit, guava, mango, orange, and pineapple), only cranberry and blueberry contained this inhibitor.16 Blueberry juice is a suitable alternative to cranberry juice in treating bladder infections.
It must be pointed out that most cranberry juices on the market contain one-third cranberry juice, mixed with water and sugar. Since sugar has such a detrimental effect on the immune system,1'"19 use of sweetened cranberry juice cannot be recommended. Fresh cranberry (sweetened with apple or grape juice) or blueberry juice is preferred. | | To ensure that glucuronidation is working properly, eat sulfur-rich foods (see above) and citrus fruit (but not grapefruit). If you have Gilbert's syndrome, be sure to drink at least 48 ounces of water daily. Also, methionine administered as SAM has been shown to be quite beneficial in treating Gilbert's syndrome.52
Sulfoxidation
Sulfoxidation is the process by which the sulfur-containing molecules in drugs (such as chlorpromazine, a tranquilizer) and foods (such as garlic) are metabolized. |

See book keywords and concepts |  ANTIADHESIVES
A number of naturally occurring carbohydrate-like compounds found in beans, peas, lentils, oranges, and grapefruit possess the unique ability to prevent cancer cells from adhering to the surface of healthy cells. These glue-blocking compounds appear to work as antiadhesives by blocking the binding site of cancer cells (called lectins) and preventing individual cancer cells from metastasizing. New and innovative food supplements and pharmaceuticals based on this antiadhesive concept have been developed to prevent cancer cells from attaching to healthy cells. |
