Jalapeno Peppers

Jalapeno peppers are an superb food for fighting pancreatic cancer cells. These peppers are a great source of vitamin B6, with a mere cup of sliced jalapeno peppers providing 23% of the recommended daily intake for this important anti-panreatic cancer vitamin. They also provide a slew of other nutrients known to fight pancreatic cancer, including folate, vitamin C, and beta-carotene. Further, recent studies suggest that capsaicin, the major pungent ingredient in jalapeno peppers, can kill pancreatic cancer cells by attacking the cells' mitochondria, their energy factories, without harming the surrounding healthy cells.
