“God will punsh cancer”
— Blessing CEO reacts as Alex Ekubo d'es💔

Certain foods are linked to lower the risk of cancer for both men and women. Pls share to your friends after reading..

The pattern matters more than any one item: diets high in plants, fiber, and healthy fats tend to do better.

Here’s what comes up most often in the research for both men and women:

1. Cruciferous vegetables
Broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, kale. They contain sulforaphane and other compounds studied for anti-cancer effects, especially for prostate, lung, and colorectal cancers. Aim for lightly steamed to keep nutrients intact.

2. Berries
Blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries. High in anthocyanins and vitamin C. Linked to reduced oxidative stress and inflammation.

3. Tomatoes
Rich in lycopene. Cooked tomatoes and tomato sauce show stronger links to lower prostate cancer risk in men than raw tomatoes.

4. Fatty fish
Salmon, mackerel, sardines. High in omega-3s. Associated with lower risk of colorectal and possibly prostate cancer. 2 servings/week is a common target.

5. Whole grains & fiber
Oats, brown rice, whole wheat, beans, lentils. High fiber intake is one of the most consistent dietary factors linked to lower colorectal cancer risk.

6. Nuts and seeds
Almonds, walnuts, flaxseeds, chia. Provide healthy fats, fiber, and selenium. Brazil nuts are a major source of selenium, which has been studied for prostate cancer risk.

7. Garlic and onions
Contain organosulfur compounds. Populations with high intake tend to have lower stomach and colorectal cancer rates.

What to limit too
Processed meats, excessive red meat, alcohol, and sugar-sweetened drinks are linked to higher risk for several cancers in men and women.

Quick plate idea: Grilled salmon + roasted broccoli + a side of lentils + a handful of berries. That hits protein, fiber, healthy fat, and antioxidants in one meal.

If you have a family history of cancer or specific health conditions, talk to a doctor or registered dietitian before making big changes. They can tailor advice to your risk factors.🦅

“Don’t follow a divorced woman as your friend, even if she’s your sister. Teach her to either reconcile with her husband or remarry.

They will tell you men are not important, but still go behind and do otherwise.

There’s something you people need to stop: just because your marriage is broken doesn’t mean you should break other people’s marriages.

Any lady who takes your husband has done something wrong, and such actions should never be encouraged…”

– Female preacher has generated controversy online after sharing strong opinions about divorced women, marriage, and infidelity.

The Statement has gone viral, with people split on weather it's truth or too harsh 🤔

What's your take on this?

Banky W successfully battled cancer for 10 years and survived.❤️

He reportedly underwent a fourth surgery for a rare strain of skin cancer in May 2024 after being diagnosed with tumours in his shoulder around 2014. 💔

He had previously undergone three successful surgeries before the most recent procedure.

WHAT CAN CAUSE CANCER IN MEN👇

Cancer in men is usually caused by a mix of genetics, lifestyle, environment, and age. No single factor guarantees it, but these are the main ones that increase risk:

1. Lifestyle factors
- To***co use: Smoking and smokeless to***co are the biggest cause of lung, throat, bladder, and other cancers.
- Alcohol: Heavy drinking raises risk for liver, esophageal, colon, and head/neck cancers.
- Poor diet & obesity: Diets high in processed/red meat, low in fruits/veg, and excess body weight are linked to colorectal, prostate, and pancreatic cancers.
- Physical inactivity: Increases risk for colon, prostate, and other cancers indirectly through weight gain.

2. Infections
- HPV: Human papillomavirus can cause throat, a**l, and pe**le cancers.
- Hepatitis B & C: Lead to liver cancer.
- H. pylori: Linked to stomach cancer.

3. Environmental & occupational exposure
- UV radiation: Sun exposure and tanning beds → skin cancer.
- Chemicals: Asbestos, benzene, certain industrial chemicals → lung, bladder, and other cancers.
- Radiation: High doses from medical treatments or environmental sources.

4. Genetics & family history
Some cancers like prostate, colon, and testicular cancer run in families due to inherited gene mutations like BRCA1/2, Lynch syndrome. If close male relatives had cancer young, risk goes up.

5. Hormones & age
- Age: Risk rises sharply after 50 for most cancers.
- Hormones: Testosterone isn’t a direct cause, but prostate cancer growth is hormone-sensitive.

6. Other
- Chronic inflammation: Long-term inflammation from conditions like ulcerative colitis can increase risk.
- Previous cancer treatment: Radiation and some chemo can raise risk for a second cancer years later.

Important: Having a risk factor doesn’t mean you’ll get cancer, and many men with cancer have no obvious risk factors. Early screening for prostate, colorectal, skin, and lung cancer can catch things early when they’re most treatable.

💔 Karma hits differently..
Ugo’s ex-wife got deported back to Nigeria after trying to get his husband deported from the UK.

Meanwhile:
- Ugo is still in the UK, doing just fine ✅
- The guy she was secretly seeing? Still in the UK, living comfortably too 😮‍💨

She’s the only one who lost everything. One betrayal flipped her whole life upside down.

Moral of the story: Don’t bite the hand that lifted you when nobody else would 🧐❤️

Karma is real

The family cries for Justice 😢,

🧐❤️ The family of the young man sh@t d€ad near the University of Benin (UNIBEN) is calling for justice.

The victim was k!lled shortly after driving out of the university gate According to eyewitnesses, unknown g¥nmen with r!fles stopped him and opened fire

A young lady who was with him was also sh0t in the hand during the incident and was rushed to the hospital for treatment.
