GSH is important in all cells, particularly so in our livers. We are exposed to different toxins every day—for example, the average Ameri­can is exposed to fourteen pounds of food additives each year, many of which are toxic, and when these toxins enter our bodies, our livers activate the cytochrome P-450 enzymes. These enzymes then convert the toxic compounds to less toxic substances that can be excreted out of the body (this process is called the “phase-I” liver reaction).

Phase-I liver reactions also create large amounts of free radicals; therefore, in what is known as the phase-II reactions in the liver, GSH and other antioxidants neutralize them. If you have a lot of oxidative stress (due to excess exposure to environmental toxins, or if you are a smoker or drink alcohol excessively), your phase-I liver enzymes are working overtime. And if your phase-I enzymes are working hard, your phase-II reactions had better be up to the task (which means having lots of GSH around), or the result may eventually be liver damage due to excess generation of free radicals.

GSH is probably even working on toxic substances in your diet before they reach your liver. That is because in mammals it seems to be present in the cells that line the intestine, which are the first line of de­fense against toxic compounds being absorbed into the body. More importantly, these cells seem to be able to take up GSH and use it to protect against toxins entering the blood. This was clearly shown in a study in which these special intestinal epithelial cells were isolated from rats and GSH was added to the medium; when GSH was added twenty minutes before a highly toxic, oxidizing compound was introduced, the intestinal cells were protected against the damaging effects of the toxin. If these cells do become damaged, toxic substances in your diet can be absorbed and enter your bloodstream. Some physicians call this the “leaky-gut syndrome,” which plays a role in the onset of many chronic illnesses, such as Crohn’s disease and rheumatoid arthritis.

Strawberry, being one of the best source in cancer prevention fruit, contain kind of special acidic substances, that act as anti-toxic material and preventing cancer cells from being developed. Further, strawberry also has an enzyme that helps in preventing leukemia.

Citrus fruits class fruits( like orange, lemon, grapefruit ) , with its rich Vitamin C, helps in strengthening our body, skin, lung, intestinal, and liver . By transforming water-soluble toxic into fat soluble substances, it helps discharges those toxic substances out of our body, keep us healthy.

As well known, Vitamin C helps in strengthening our body immunity, researches indicated that for those who eat citrus class fruits in their daily dietary, has show positive reduction in cancer risk prevention of about 30% for , for pancreas cancer risk.  For those who often eat citrus class fruits, the possibilities of contracting mouth related deseases such as oral cavity, pharynx and larynx, stomach cancer, the risk level could be reduced as much as 50%  !

In recent laboratory researches, it is discover that Kiwi ( which Vitamin C content is often recognized as high as 4 to 12 times compare to orange, about 30 times more than apple. is apple 30 times, grape’s 60 times ),  contain active substance that help in preventing cancer. Also, according to researches, apricot is the one of the best fruit that contain highest level of Vitamin B17 content. This particular Vitamin is highly effective in anti cancer treatment, as it eliminates the cancer infected cells. There are even research reports showing that cancer patients whom undergo treatment with Vitamin B17, more than 90% are treated successfully. Till now, there has been whooping number of about 4000 terminally illed cancer patient’s being saved by using Vitamin B17 in their treatments.

Nevertheless, although it is well known that the positive effects of these fruits in fighting cancer is highly recommended, people still need to eat accordingly when consuming these fruits. Depending to individual dietary habits, some may develop allergy or body/organ disorder if not careful especially consuming the fruits in raw form. Example would be patients with kidney illness are not advisable to consume much of strawberry as the fruit contain higher level of calcium, which may aggregate the kidney illness or worsen the condition.

Like what we often said – An Apple a day keeps the doctor away. But well, just like everything else,  having too much of it could sometimes brings trouble too ! So, proper consumption is still advisable.
