Pumpkin Soup is a delicious and healthy dish that can be enjoyed by everyone, especially cancer patients who are undergoing cancer treatment. The basis of a starve cancer diet involves consuming foods that are low in methionine, which is an essential amino acid that promotes the growth of cancer cells. This Pumpkin Soup recipe is low in methionine and can be beneficial for cancer patients who want to follow a starve cancer diet.
This Pumpkin Soup recipe is low in methionine because it is made with plant-based ingredients, including pumpkin, vegetable broth, coconut milk, and spices. These ingredients are also rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals that can help boost the immune system and reduce inflammation, which is beneficial for cancer patients undergoing treatment.
Pumpkins are particularly high in beta-carotene, a type of antioxidant that has been linked to a reduced risk of certain types of cancer, including lung cancer, breast cancer, and colon cancer. Garlic, onion, and ginger also contain compounds that have anti-cancer properties and can help prevent the growth and spread of cancer cells.
In addition, coconut milk is a good source of healthy fats, which can help cancer patients maintain their weight and improve their overall health. It is also a rich source of lauric acid, which has been shown to have anti-cancer properties.
Aside from the health benefits, it is a super-delicious and nutritious dish that can be enjoyed by cancer patients who are undergoing treatment. It is low in methionine and contains plant-based ingredients that are rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, making it a perfect addition to a starve cancer diet.
Disclaimer – Whilst I have taken all the care possible to calculate the methionine to the closest level, I cannot guarantee that this is correct as there is not a lot of data available to support exact methionine content. Please adhere to the weight of food over cup measurements.
