Scandinavian Blueberry Soup

In Scandinavia, blueberry soup is a popular treat that can be served warm as an appetizer or chilled as a dessert. But the benefits of blueberry soup extend far beyond its culinary use. In a laboratory test conducted by USDA researchers, wild blueberries were ranked number one in terms of antioxidant capacity over 40 other tested fruits, berries, and vegetables. The antioxidant activity of wild blueberries was shown to be even stronger than that of cranberries, raspberries, strawberries, plums, or cultivated blueberries.

Catechin-Rich Ice Tea

This cervical cancer fighting drink recipe uses loose tea leaves and advises a relatively long brewing time, both of which improve the release of catechins from green tea leaves. Lemon juice, rich in vitamin C, further improves the availability of catechins.

Blood Orange and Raspberry Smoothie

This anti-cervical cancer smoothie pairs resfreshing blood orange juice with sweet raspberries. Both blood oranges and raspberries get their beautiful red color from anthocyanins, flavonoid pigments that with powerful antioxidant and anti-cancer properties. To maximize its full health-giving potential, this recipe also calls for flaxseed oil which is rich in alpha-linolenic acid, a type of omega-3 fatty acid. Evidence suggests that alpha-linolenic acid can induce apoptosis (self-destruction) in cervical cancer and breast cancer cells, without damaging non-cancerous cells.
