Carcinogens

Toxicology literature extensively catalogs the many environmental chemicals linked to specific cancers and diseases. Carcinogens can cause somatic DNA mutations acquired during a person's lifetime rather than inherited changes. The body has its own enzymes designed to neutralize carcinogenic compounds, which cruciferous vegetables can amplify. Exposure to environmental carcinogens in food, air, water, golf courses, and lawns is essentially unavoidable.
