Cut cancer risk with egg yolk

Think you can't prevent cancer with the foods you eat? Think again. You can slash your risk of developing breast cancer just by consuming choline-rich foods. Choline what, you might be thinking. And to that I say: Choline is an organic compound classified as a water-soluble essential nutrient, usually grouped within the vitamin B complex. Mumbo jumbo, huh?

Here's all you really need to know: Good sources of choline are eggs, fish, lean meat, collard greens, and beans. Women need 425 mg per day, yet 90% of Americans don't get enough. Get the right amount and you'll decrease your risk of breast cancer by 24%. You'll also cut your heart disease risk and improve your memory.

Kick start your new choline habit today, by throwing down one large egg yolk, says Prevention magazine. It has 27% of your daily recommended amount.
