* [[leekLeek]] contain allyl sulphides that help protect against many types of cancer, particularly colon and [[Prostate Cancer]].
* [[Vitamin B3]] : Niacin, or B3, works to reduce inflammation even if you’re not getting enough fiber. It keeps polyps from forming in the first place. And if you already have them, it keeps them from getting larger.

* [[Resveratrol]] halts the growth of colorectal cancers.
* Increase [[melatonin]] by sleeping in complete darkness.
* [[Propolis]] showed strong cancer inhibitory effects against several colon cancers.
* [[Cinnamon]] may also reduce risks for Colon Cancer by helping to remove excess bile in the digestive tract and prevent the damage it can cause to colon cells.
* Spice up your life with curries. One of the key ingredients in many curries—turmeric—contains a compound called curcumin which has been shown to reduce the risk of colon cancer by 25%
* [[Pawpaw]] suppressed growth in cultured cells of several cancers, such as leukemia, small-cell Lung Cancer, Colon Cancer, Melanoma, Ovarian Cancer, Renal Cancer.
* [[Blackthorn]] : The investigation of the anti-tumor effect of the flavonoids and anthocyanins that are found in high amounts in the Prunus food supplement on human colon carcinoma cells seemed to us very promising.
* [[Mistletoe]] : Research found that one of the mistletoe extracts, from the species Fraxini (which grows on ash trees) was more potent against colon cancer cells in cell cultures compared with chemotherapy. It also increased the potency of chemotherapy when used in conjunction with it.
* [[Salvia Sclarea]] : Sclareol is able to kill human leukemic cells and colon cancer cells by apoptosis.
* Frequent consumption of [[mushrooms]] decreased the risk of [[Breast Cancer]], [[Stomach Cancer]] and Colon Cancer.
* Eat foods high in [[quercetin]], like onions. This can inhebit cancer growth in your body.
* [[Folate]] has been shown to reduce the risk of developing colorectal, ovarian, and breast cancers and to help stop uncontrolled cell growth, one of the primary characteristics of all cancers.
* Black [[Raspberry]] lowers the incidence of colorectal cancer by 45%. The study authors conclude that the high polyphenol content of the raspberries are likely to influence digestive gene targets and may be of benefit to other digestive cancer lines as well.
* [[Cranberries]] have cancer-preventive benefits especially likely in the case of breast, colon, lung, and prostate cancer.
* [[Fenugreek]] : The fibre content (saponins, mucilage, etc.) of fenugreek binds to toxins in the food and flush them out. This in turn helps to protect the mucus membrane of the colon from cancers.
* [[Ganoderma Tsugae]] inhibit colorectal cancer cell growth
* the chemo-protective properties of anthocyanin-rich extracts (ARE`s) with the highest antioxidant power is found in purple corn, chokeberry, bilberry, purple carrot and grapes.
*Baking Soda remedy benefits cancers of the throat, colon, intestines and rectal area. Because cancer cells are so hungry for sugars, when the baking soda is mixed with maple syrup, the mixture will go straight to the site of the tumor, like a Trojan Horse, where the bicarbonate will quickly work as a weapon against disease.
* [[Ukrain]] is a drug based on the extract of the plant Chelidonium majus L (greater chelandine). It is claimed to be effective against a range of cancers.
* peanut butter include antioxidants and healthy fats that reduce the risk of [[Heart Disease]], [[stroke]] and Colon Cancer.
* The natural polyphenol in [[Green Tea]] known as [[ECGC]] has been shown to be particularly effective in lowering risk of a host of cancer cell lines including prostate, colon, esophagus, bladder and pancreas.
* [[Spinach]] protects the eyes, good for brain function, guards against Colon Cancer, [[Prostate Cancer]] and [[Breast Cancer]], protects against [[Heart Disease]], [[stroke]] and [[dementia]], it lowers blood pressure, it's anti-inflammatory and it's great for bone health.
* [[Beta-Cryptoxanthin]] (in papaya, mango, peaches, oranges, tangerines, bell peppers, corn and watermelon, egg yolk and butter)seems to reduce the risk of lung cancer and colon cancer.
* mustard [[Mustard]] contains special polysaccharides that can help preventing colon cancer.
* [[Lycopene]] in Tangerine Tomatoes is particularly effective in fighting [[Breast Cancer]] and [[Prostate Cancer]], [[Ovarian Cancer]], [[Cervical Cancer]], and Colon Cancer.
* Red Cabbage : A study on red cabbage shows that its glucosinolate compound can prevent a variety of cancers including [[Prostate Cancer]], Colon Cancer, [[Breast Cancer]] and [[Bladder Cancer]]. It also contains omega-3 fatty acids, folate, manganese, dietary fiber and magnesium – all of which are strong cancer-fighting nutrients.
* Peanuts have been linked to a lower rate of endometrial and colorectal cancers in women.
*[[Mint]] exhibits the capacity to protect the animals’ lungs, skin and colon against the formation of cancer.
* [[Lemon Balm]] (Melissa officinalis) extract inhibits the proliferation of colon carcinoma cells and induces apoptosis through formation of ROS. Taken together, LBE or subfractions thereof could be used for the prevention of colon cancer.
* [[turmeric]] inhibits the growth of the H. Pylori bacteria, one of the causes of colon and [[Gastric Cancer]]. It has also been known to help fight [[Prostate Cancer]].
* [[Ginseng]] has anti-cancer effects on cancer cells found in the colorectal area of the body.
* [[Ruta Graveolens]] (homeopathy) shows promising treatment for brain cancer, colon Cancer and leukemia.
* [[Cloves]] : Researchers found that the clove extract halted the activity and growth of the colon cancer cells, the breast cancer cells, the ovarian cancer cells, the liver cancer and the colon cancer cells.
* Avoid exposure to environmental toxins.
* Avoid fried food.
* Marinate your meat in beer or wine or spices that can lower the risk of cancer-causing substances like heterocyclic amines (HCAs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). A study in the Journal of Agriculture and Food Chemistry found that marinating pork in beer for four hours before charcoal-grilling reduced the amount of PAHs by as much as 53%. You can also reduce exposure to these compounds by cleaning your grill regularly to remove excess char, cutting overly charred parts off of your meat, and even microwaving meat for 60 to 90 seconds before throwing it on the grill.
* [[Coffee]] contains hundreds of biologically active compounds, including potent antioxidant activity, the most unique antioxidant being methylpridinium. Methylpridinium is found almost exclusively in coffee. It has anticancer properties for colon cancer and prostate cancer.* [[DIM]] has been shown to exert control over cancer cell growth in breast, uterine, cervical, ovarian, and colon cancer.* [[Job's Tears]] : a study has suggested the anti-colon cancer potential of the non-cooked hull Job’s tears extract from Thai Black Loei cultivar prepared by the cold methanol extraction.* [[Salicornia]] : Polysaccharides from botanical sources exerting anticancer properties have been well-documented (Chang 2002; Patel and Goyal 2012). In this regard, many Salicornia polysaccharides have also shown promise, validated through in vitro and in vivo models. Crude as well as purified polysaccharides from S. herbacea (at 0.5–4 mg/ml) demonstrated anti-proliferation of human colon cancer HT-29 cells when incubated for 24–48 h (Ryu et al. 2009).
