Asparagus Could Kill Me?

A recent study points to a concerning ingredient in one of our most common foods. Could this potentially help the spread of cancer?

I was shocked by information I read in a recent article about asparagus. I love asparagus and eat it quite frequently. Green vegetables are supposed to be good for us. They're supposed to provide helpful nutrients for our bodies, right? Apparently, this isn't necessarily so!

According to the report published on The Guardian's website, scientists have discovered that asparagus contains an amino acid called asparagine. Asparagine is naturally produced by our bodies and is a building block for proteins. It is also in many of the foods we eat, including dairy products, meats and vegetables.
