Hi, I'm Dr. Kevin Soden with a smart tip to turn your sandwich into a cancer fighting meal. You cut the bread across off your sandwich? Stop! You're taking off the most nutritious part.

The heat from baking turns the outer dough's carbs and protein into new compounds with high cancer fighting potential.
And of course, always choose the whole grain bread for your sandwiches and fill them with vegetables including cancer fighting cruciferous veggies like cabbage and water grass. You will enjoy a great lunch while helping your body fight cancer. For more ways to nourish your health, watch all of our smart tips right here.
