Spain is in the southwestern part of Europe and to the east of the Mediterranean Sea. There are a large variety of fruits and vegetables grown in Spain. Food From Spain lists peaches, cherries, ioquats, apricots, nectarines, plums, apples, pears, grapes, wheat, and olives as fruits grown in Spain. There are also many others, but these specific fruits are only from Spain. A Melocoton de Calanda is a Spanish peach found in northeastern Spain. Cerezas de la Montana de Alicante is a sweet red cherry found in the jerte Valley in Extremadura of Spain. Ioquats are sweet, slightly acidic, and have a strong leathery skin. Certain types of apricots, nectarines, and plums also come from Spain. Apples from Asturias, Castile-Leon, and Catalonia of northern Spain are “generally considered superior (foodfromspain).” Pears are originally from Asia Minor, but grow well in inland Spain. Grapes, wheat, and olives play a major role in Spanish cuisine as well. Grapes are used for wine and oil. Olives are in abundance and are eaten and used for oil.

...it. Such as apples, apples contain a high dosage of vitamin C and photochemical that can lower the risk of getting breast cancer. Apples also lower the risk of getting stomach, mouth, pharynx, and larynx cancer. It was studied that if the average human ate at least one apple a day the chance of getting cancer would be slimmed down by a third. Drinking coffee can also help prevent kidney, pancreatic, and endometrial cancer.
So how did something not grown to any significant extent in West Virginia evolve into “our food?” Like many things for mountaineers, we got them from the Indians but not the ones that readily come to mind. That’s Indians as in South American Indians. Phaseolus vulgaris, pinto beans and cousins, originated from a common bean ancestor domesticated in Peru or close by 7,000 years ago. In fact, “pinto” is a Spanish word for painted, coined to describe the mottled or seemingly painted specks on this variety of bean.
Everyone has heard the saying an apple a day keeps the doctor away, but have they ever heard the saying an orange, yes way, will help you live another day? Oranges, along with many other citrus fruit have D-limonene in them (Hezy). D-limonene has proven to help prevent skin cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, mouth cancer, and colon cancer (Sun). This is most likely why the breakfast cereal companies will add in a glass of orange juice and say, “part of this complete breakfast”. “Because of its gastric acid neutralizing effect and its support of normal peristalsis, it has also been used for relief of heartburn as well” (Sun). D-limonene is also used clinically for dissolving cholesterol-containing gallstones (Sun).
Furthermore, it has been suggested that pomegranates lower your risk of getting cancer, though it cannot actually reverse it. This is due to a specific type of antioxidant found in the fruit that isn 't found in other fruits, even if they contain some other antioxidants. This unique substance is sometimes called a super antioxidant, as it doesn 't just destroy free radicals, but actually seeks them out to destroy them, and in effect helps lower your rate of breast cancer. It has been proven that Pomegranates are the most anti-oxidant and healthiest fruit in the fruit class. Pomegranate Anti-Cancer Health Benefits In multiple large research projects conducted over the last ten years, it 's been proven that pomegranate juice helps decrease the occurrence of prostate and liver cancer in mice. In addition, in other controlled research done on mice, not only does it prevent cancer, but once the cancer has formed, it dramatically helps decrease the size of the tumors by blocking out the substance that allows those tumors to grow in the first place. The cancer cells attempt to spread, by using a nutrient that allows them to stick on to your bones. Scientists have confirmed that pomegranate juice also inhibits that protein from functioning, and in effect, stopping the growth of the

Through conquest and exploration, apples were spread when Romans conquered England and when Spaniards brought them to Mexico and South America. It wasn’t until the mid 1600’s that the Pilgrims cultivated them in Massachusetts. It is believed that John Endecott, an early governor, was the first to bring an apple tree to North America, and the first orchard was planted on Beacon Hill by a clergyman named William Blaxton. It is Blaxton who is credited for growing the first named apple, the Yellow Sweeting. Once apples were established in New England, they played an active role in everyday life. As a fruit which was easily stored through the winter, as well as being very beneficial to settlers’ health, apples were a main staple in early settlers’ diets. Despite the fact that apples were not initially from North America, and have been growing disease-free for centuries in their native habitats, the early settlers found that the long, hot summers and cold winters of New England grew apples unlike anywhere else in the world. New England apples are known not only for their unique blend of tart and sweet flavors, but also for their size and freshness.
Are you wondering whether it is possible for any natural prevention for cancer to exist?
