London: One of the fundamental things you can do to lessen your cancer risk is just eat in a right manner.

Well, if it looks tricky in today’s confused lifestyle, don’t feel troubled. You can also take pills made from red wine, sticky rice, berries and spice, as a supplement every day to keep away from cancer.

Britain researchers have discovered the drugs, which could be consumed as daily vitamin supplements to protect against tumors in the prostate, bowel and breast.

Professor Will Steward, lead scientist, said, “These drugs have proved highly effective in the laboratory -- it is extraordinary. They act in numerous ways on pre-cancerous cells, but they also appear to be effective on cancerous cells. We know they are safe to use but we want to establish if they are effective in humans. We do not know whether there will be a 40 per cent reduction in risk in the body -- it could be more, it could be less.”

Prof. Steward and his fellow researchers have discovered the compounds after making thorough research for drugs, which prevent cells turning malevolent, a technique known as ‘chemoprevention.’

Their work at the University of Leicester was prompted by research, which established that rustic populations in Thailand with a diet rich in sticky rice are less likely to grow breast cancer.
