Benefits of the Chinese Diet for health

The Chinese Diet is rich in antioxidants. The antioxidants are minerals and vitamins that help to prevent the damage to the body due to free radicals (toxins). The antioxidants reduce the negative impact of free radicals and reduce the risk of cancer and heart disease.

Fruits and vegetables provide a lot of fiber. Scientific studies have shown that fiber reduces the risk of cancer, and especially of colon cancer, the third most common cancer in West.

The Chinese Diet limits the fat and eliminates near all the saturated fat. The saturated fat cause chronic diseases such as coronary problems, obesity and cancer. Many researchers believe that the Chinese diet is healthy due to this limitation of saturated fat.
