Scientists recommend a certain food to reduce the risk of cancer. Carrots are the miracle food whose consumption is ‘clearly associated with a reduced risk’ Even one serving of carrots reduces the chance of developing cancer by four percent.

The study also notes that consuming Brussels sprouts may help fight cancer and chronic diseases such as diabetes. The prerequisite here is that the vegetables are steamed and not fried or boiled, otherwise “health-promoting properties” such as glucosinolates are lost.
