It cannot be simply said that cancer is a problem of eating, but healthy eating habits are of great significance to the prevention of cancer.
However, unhealthy diet does increase the risk of cancer.
A large number of studies have confirmed that cancer is more likely to target people who eat these seven kinds of foods for a long time.
Scalding food
The World Health Organization has made it clear that drinking hot drinks above 65 C has carcinogenic risk.
The surface of our mouth and esophagus is covered with delicate mucosa. Temperatures above 65 C are enough to burn this mucosa.
If the mucosa repeats the cycle of “damaged-repaired” for a long time, there will be more and more abnormal [atypical] cells and the risk of cancer will follow.
Of course, don’t worry too much. The risk of cancer does not mean that you will get cancer once you drink it. But I hope everyone will get rid of this bad habit and don’t eat hot tofu in a hurry.
Dessert
Sugar is the main energy substance of the human body. Almost all cells of the body need sugar to provide nutrition. The same is true for cancer cells.
However, unlike normal cells, cancer cells use sugar more quickly, thus meeting the needs of their rapid growth and crazy expansion.
Hyperglycemia can cause diabetes and obesity, which are themselves risk factors for cancer.
In addition, high levels of blood sugar make it easier for cancer cells to grow fast and spread around, which can directly increase the risk of cancer in the body.
Fried objects
Fried food is usually crisp and fragrant.
But they are also a kind of food with high carcinogenic possibility.
On the one hand, the continuous heating of oil will produce carcinogens such as [benzopyrene], increasing the risk of gastric cancer and colon cancer; Oil frying produces lampblack, which is also a high risk factor for cancers such as lung cancer.
On the other hand, the high temperature of frying will also make the food itself produce carcinogens, such as [acrylamide].
At the same time, high-fat foods such as fried foods are closely related to tumors such as colon cancer. Obesity caused by oil is also one of the important risk factors for cancer.
Processed meat
The World Health Organization has classified processed meat products as Class 1 carcinogens, i.e. There is a clear carcinogenic effect.
The specific reasons are not clear to scientists, but there are many possible reasons, such as nitroso compounds, heterocyclic amines, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, heme iron, saturated fat and other factors.
Seeing the words carcinogen, many people are too scared to touch these foods.
In fact, for individuals, the risk of cancer is not great if they eat occasionally, but if they eat for a long time or in large quantities, the risk will increase accordingly. In terms of public health, this risk is worth noting because so many people in the country and even in the world want to eat meat.
It’s no problem to try something fresh occasionally, but in the long run, if you can eat less, try to eat less.
Wine
Excessive drinking will lead to alcoholic liver cirrhosis, which, in serious cases, will gradually evolve into liver cancer. People who drink beer or other alcoholic beverages frequently have increased incidence of oral cancer, esophageal cancer and colon cancer.
It is recommended that men drink no more than 25g of alcohol per day and women not more than 15g.
Try not to drink.
Moldy food
Improperly stored peanuts, corn, rice, etc. will be contaminated by mold and often produce aflatoxin. This toxin is closely related to liver cancer.
It is suggested that everyone learn to store food reasonably. If food is found to be mildewy, don’t just think about saving and continue to eat after picking out the mildewy parts. This kind of food, just throw it away directly.
Oversalty food
Epidemiological surveys in many countries and regions show that the more salt you eat, the higher the risk of gastric cancer.
However, think about it, is our taste getting heavier and heavier?
The salt that many friends eat every day can easily exceed the recommended amount of 6g per day in the Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents.
The next time you complain that [the food is not delicious enough to eat at all], think more about the fact that a light diet and less salt are conducive to preventing gastric cancer.
Food is the most important thing for the people. At present, who will not move his index finger?
However, only when you are healthy can you eat longer. It is very nice to try so many kinds of delicious food with restraint and moderation. If you don’t have restraint, you will suddenly find that delicious food is no longer blessed until you get sick. It is really too bad.
Are you right?
