Bladder cancer is one such health condition that you can prevent with proper care. A healthy and nutritious diet helps. No diet can prevent you from getting cancer. However, research shows that a diet rich in a variety of fruits, vegetables, beans, whole grains, and other plant foods can reduce the risk of many types of cancer.  

This article will highlight the four foods that should be eaten to fight or prevent bladder cancer.  

Four Foods: 

1. Vegetables  

Eat more colourful, leafy vegetables because they contain antioxidants. Antioxidants repair cell damage and help prevent certain types of cancer. These types of foods also have anti-inflammatory properties that can fight cancer.  

Oranges, yellows, and reds, which belong to the class of antioxidants known as carotenoids, are considered essential. You can find them in foods like potatoes, carrots, and peppers.  

2. Fruits  

Eating fruits can reduce the risk of bladder cancer by 10 percent per serving. Citrus fruits such as lemons, oranges, grapes, and lemons have antioxidant properties that may be protective.  

To reduce cancer risk, HCG Cancer Center oncologists recommend five servings of starchy fruits and vegetables daily. The serving size is about a cup of raw vegetables, half a cup of cooked vegetables, or half a cup of fruit.  

3. Tea  

Tea also reduces the risk of other types of cancer. Green tea contains epigallocatechin-3-gallate, which has anti-cancer properties. Green or oolong tea is almost identical to black tea.  

4. Organic Foods  

You may be wondering if you can prevent cancer from recurring or growing by following an organic diet. An organic diet is more effective in fighting cancer than a non-organic diet.  

There is absolutely nothing to lose by consuming an organic diet that includes healthy options such as eggs, lean poultry, and produce.
