This quick-and-easy salad is full of anti-cancer nutrients: - avocados rich in carotenes and vitamins C and E that have powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties and are thought to protect against cancers of the skin, mouth and prostate; - apples containing antioxidant polyphenols and cancer-slowing pectin, thought to lower the risk of breast, lung & colon cancer; - celery's coumarins that protect our cells against free radicals and phenolic acids which block the action of prostaglandins that encourage the growth of tumor cells; - walnuts and lamb's lettuce, rich sources of anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer omega-3 fatty acids; - cranberries with their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant compounds (thanks to a wide range of proantocyanidins, anthocyanins, flavonoids, penolic acids) - with their many anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-cancer properties. Best of all, it's so delicious that you can serve it to dinner guests and they won't even realise how healthy it is!
