The main "brake" on cancer

Each cell in the organism has a predetermined "number of lives". And with each new time period, this number decreases - a countdown timer is in effect.
The role of the "brake" in programmed cell death is played by the so-called p53 protein.

When the genetic material in the cell is damaged, p53 is activated and stops cell division, this mechanism not only helps to maintain the stability of the genome, but also prevents the appearance of cancer. To maintain the invaluable protein, it is important to start eating right and getting enough protein.

Protein should be present in every meal, says Zuhra Pavlova, MD, endocrinologist. According to the specialist, because of its deficiency, for example, many people who want to lose weight "stop" weight. It is important to include one protein product in every meal for the normal work of the body and to start the process of weight loss, emphasized the expert. The doctor has compiled a sample menu.

So, breakfast can consist of two eggs. Best of all - boiled. Also suitable cottage cheese or low-fat varieties of cheese, which can become an addition to the sandwich.

"Lunch: red meat, poultry, fish not in fried form. For example, soup with meat (borscht, shields) or vegetable soup. And for the second - meat (poultry or fish) with a side dish in the form of vegetables or cereals. For dinner - vegetable salad with fish (tuna or seafood)", - advised the doctor.
