Let's be honest when we think of foods with anticancer properties we tend to think of green leafy vegetables, spices like turmeric, berries rich in anthocyanins and of course green teas. What we don't normally think of is a high-fat, high-protein food like peanut butter. Now while it's known that peanuts (not a true nut but a legume) are generally considered healthy, the same can't be said for peanut butter.
However in a recent piece of research discussed here: http://www.eatpositive.co.uk/healthy-peanut-butter/, it appears that consumption of peanut butter by adolescent girls reduced the incidence of breast diseases, including breast cancer.
