G-BOMBS: Helpful Weapons of Cancer Destruction

Wow, your body is amazing! It rebounds after a hangover. It recognizes and purges toxins. And it  rids itself of cancers by regularly cutting off the blood supply to tiny, imperceivable tumors. 

Did you know that you can help your body prevent cancer tumor growth and more by cutting off tumor blood supply, lowering inflammation, removing carcinogens, neutralizing oxidative stress and killing cancer cells, among many other health benefits? How? Three words: Plant Based Foods. Research shows that specific foods such as certain teas, spices, tomatoes, and other plant-based foods nicknamed G-BOMBS can increase lifespan by lowering inflammation, reversing diabetes, and stopping cancer in its tracks. See "Can We Eat to Starve Cancer" to learn more. 

What are G-BOMBS?

G-BOMBS is an acronym coined by Joel Fuhrman, MD, a researcher, physician, author and one of the teachers I was lucky to learn from in my health coach training program. These letters stand for the specific plant foods (see below) with anti-cancer properties and other health bonuses. According to Fuhrman, a nutrient-dense diet rich in multi-colored plant foods, beans, seeds and greens, high in micronutrients and fiber, can reverse signs of aging and improve cognitive function even after years of eating a poor Standard American Diet. But the sooner the better to give your body a fighting chance. Dr. Fuhrman recommends you eat plenty of these foods daily to prevent cancer and other diseases and promote good health and longevity. Learn more about how G-BOMBS work .

Roasted Onion Cream
Adapted from Food52.com's Genius Recipes
Like cashew cream, a favorite vegan recipe of mine, onion cream is a wonderful substitute for mayonnaise, cream and cheese in many dishes. Onion cream, a nutrient-loaded G-BOMB, up-levels most foods as a topping for soups or pooled under veggies, meats or fish. 

Makes about 1 1/2 cups

Print recipe

3 large yellow onions, skins on
olive oil
2 T lemon juice, or about 1 lemon
1/2 t salt

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Using your hands coat the outside of the onion skins with olive oil and place all three into a small baking pan. Roast the onions for 60 to 75 minutes, turning the onions halfway, until the skins are dark (not burnt) and the insides are very soft. Remove from oven and let cool. 

Peel onions and discard skins. Place the roasted onions into a high powered blender.  Add salt and lemon juice. Blend for 1-3 minutes, depending on your blender, until very smooth. Enjoy!
