Could a diet rich in green vegetables help prevent colon cancer? Chemicals produced by vegetables such as kale, cabbage and broccoli could help to maintain a healthy gut and prevent colon cancer, a recent study from the Francis Crick Institute shows.  The study, published in Immunity, shows that mice fed on a diet rich in indole-3-carbinol (I3C) were protected from gut inflammation and colon cancer.
