Another reason to love Brussels sprouts and green tea, these antioxidant-rich foods have the ability to "turn-off" cancer genes and make malignant tumors easier to treat.

Trygve Tollefsbol and his team used epigenetics, the study of biological mechanisms that will switch genes on and off.

“One way we can use epigenetics as a powerful tool to fight cancer is through compounds found in our everyday diet,” Tollefsbol, study author and professor from the UAB, said in an article by Nutrition Insight.
