Eat cruciferous vegetables to reduce the risk of breast cancer as they lower the levels of a type of estrogen that is suspected to promote breast cancer.

Cruciferous vegetables (like radish, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage and turnips) have indole-3-carbinol, which lowers women's levels of a type of estrogen that is suspected to promote breast cancer. Also, they contain a photochemical called sulforaphane that increases the phase 2 enzymes which fight cancer forming chemicals in the body.
