 This super fruit helps ward off breast cancer. The credit goes to the fruit's compounds that prevent the growth of hormone-dependent breast cancer. Pomegranate's cancer-stopping power may stem from ellagic acid according to one study. Ellagic acid is an antioxidant that helps block the production of estrogen. Without estrogens, breast cancer cells can't grow.
