Growing evidence suggests that some cancers can be prevented or delayed by sufficient intake of vitamin C and beta-carotene. Other components in fruits and vegetables may also play a role in prevention. Canada's Food Guide to Healthy Eating recommends an intake of 5-10 servings of fruits and vegetables each day. Some of these servings should include the colourful fruits and vegetables such as kiwis, oranges, cantaloupe, papaya, strawberries, broccoli, brussel sprouts, dark leafy greens, carrots, squash, sweet peppers and sweet potato.
