There seems to be many people on the board who have cancer or know someone that does. I received an e-mail today that asparagus fights cancer. I have know this for a long time as my family is prone to cancer on both sides of my family.
This is the deal............ take a can of aspapagus and put in in the blender to puree it. Everyday eat 3 Tablespoons of the asparagus puree.....................to be safe do it the rest of your life. For more facts google asparagus to fight cancer there are many case studies. I hope by me writing this I might save someones life. :D

Canned I think is for convience. I use canned during the winter when fresh is not in season. You need liquid to puree it, most time's I steam my veggies but when I want to puree asparagus I boil it in a little water and dump the asparagus and water in the blender. As long as you eat asparagus it will work but I puree it and put it in a container then just take it out of there I eat it straight from the frige. You can make cream of asparagus soup or add it to pasta or a fratatta as long as you get the asparagus in your body it doesn't matter how you do it just do it everyday!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank You for that info. We have just learned that we just absolutely love Roasted Aparagus. OMG I could make a meal on it alone. LOL

OMG roasted asparagus tossed in pasta with a drizzle of olive oil, fresh basil and grated romano cheese is my fav Friday night dinner.

For those of us that don't like to eat it I wonder if the pills are just as good?

Doesn't it make your urine dark?
