Ketchup isn't the only cancer-fighting condiment. Wasabi and horseradish may help stop tumors, too. When scientists at Michigan State University applied extracts to both roots to several cancers, cell growth declined by as much as 70 percent. Wasabi and horseradish belong to the mustard family of vegetables, which contain sulfur compounds that have been previously identified as cancer killers. Since most wasabi is reconstituted from powder, put your money on horseradish; it's ground fresh from the root, making it more likely to contain a surfeit of sulfur compounds.
