Cancer fighting foods.

1. Garlic – Garlic contains a number of compounds that can protect against cancer, especially that of the skin, colon, and lungs.
2. Dark Leafy Greens – Dark greens are rich sources of antioxidants called carotenoids.  These scavenge dangerous free radicals from the body before they can promote cancer growth.
3. Grapes – Grapes (and red wine) contain the chemical resveratrol, which is a very potent antioxidant that can prevent cell damage before it begins.
4. Green Tea – The flavonoids in green tea have been shown to slow or prevent the development of several types of cancer including colon, liver, breast, and prostate.
5. Tomatoes – The compound lycopene, (which is most easily absorbed from cooked tomatoes) has been shown to prevent prostate cancer, as well as cancer of the breast, lung, and stomach.
6. Blueberries – Of all the berries, blueberries are the richest in cancer fighting compounds.  They are beneficial in the prevention of all types of cancer.
7. Flaxseeds – Flax contains lignans, which can have an antioxidant effect and block or suppress cancerous changes.  The omega-3 fatty acids can also help protect against colon cancer.
8. Mushrooms – Many mushrooms contain compounds that can help the body fight cancer and build the immune system as well.
9. Cruciferous Vegetables – Vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, and Brussels sprouts contain strong antioxidants that may help decrease cancer risk.
10. Whole Grains – Whole grains contain a variety of anti-cancer compounds including antioxidants, fiber, and phytoestrogens.  These can help decrease the risk of developing most types of cancer.

How to Get a Good Night's Sleep.

1.Watch what you drink. Drinking caffeine, which is found in coffee, tea, and chocolate, can cause you to lie in bed wide awake. Alcohol, while it makes you sleepy, can keep you from having a continuous, restful sleep. Drinking too much of anything can make you wake up during the night to go to the bathroom.

2.Exercise during the day. Frequent exercise can lead to restful sleep during the night. Be careful not to exercise too close to bedtime, or you could end up with too much energy when you least need it.

3.Do something relaxing to get you ready for a good night's sleep. Take a warm bubble bath or read a book. Meditation, relaxation techniques or prayer can be effective.

4.Watch what you eat. Avoid heavy meals, and have your last meal several hours before your bedtime.

5.Go to bed at the same time every night, and get up at the same time every morning. Having a consistent sleep schedule will help you get to sleep at night.

6.Use your bed only for having sex and sleeping. Don't watch TV, read books or eat in bed.
