I have read that new research says cabbage can be good against certain cancers but I don’t remember if breast cancer is one. Both of my grandmothers had breast cancer so I am VERY interested in breast health. Thank you for this information. I love mushrooms and my daughter and I will up our consumption. Is there a recommended weekly amount and any particular kind better than others?

Answer:
I would have guessed broccoli myself! You’re absolutely right about the cancer-fighting effects of the cruciferous (cabbage-family) vegetables. See my video The Healthiest Vegetables, and if you’re interested in cabbage in particular, Superfood Bargains. Given your strong family history (sorry to hear about your grandmothers) please feel free to check out my 30 other videos on breast health. And in terms of which mushrooms are best, check out my video Breast Cancer Prevention: Which Mushroom Is Best?
How many mushrooms should one shoot for in one’s weekly diet? I have that video queued up from my volume 11 DVD. It should be up in a few days–make sure you’re subscribed to my videos so you don’t miss it!
