Crunchy Vegetables
Vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, kale, turnips, brussels sprouts, and cabbage contain indole-3-carbinol. Indole-3-carbinol is widely used to prevent chronic diseases like colon cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, and lupus. In addition, a more recent study tackled the possibility of clearing genital warts with the help of indole-3-carbinol.
Several observational studies have established the link between a high-vegetable diet and the treatment of genital warts. For example, phenomenological research conducted in 2019 narrated that it takes vegetarians less effort and time to get rid of genital warts using home remedies compared to meat eaters. Another study also showed that consuming more vegetables can prevent the spread of genital warts.
Experts recommend 4 to 5 servings of vegetables daily. There are several ways to incorporate vegetables into a person’s diet. One way is by making veggie-based soups, vegetable noodles, and smoothies. In addition, some patients added vegetables in cupcakes, bread, pizza crust, and casseroles.
Even though there are not enough scientific data to directly link indole-3-carbinol and genital warts reduction, experts still promote the inclusion of vegetables in the patient’s diet to help the body recover from infection or cellular damage.
