AVOID THESE SEVEN FOODS BECAUSE THEY CAUSE CANCER!

You must have heard a lot about foods that can help you cure cancer but there are also certain foods that can actually promote cancer growth. These foods usually fall into the category of semi-processed or fast foods. Proper nutrition can help with a lot of things including health and ability to learn.


Fast food cause cancer


If you look at these semi-processed foods, you will notice that they have varying composition. As a result, they impact the body differently. However, they all contain chemicals which are harmful for your body and as a result they don’t do anything good to your health.

Processed meat products


Meat preserved by smoking, curing or meat that contains chemical preservatives is associated with an increased risk of colon cancer. Most of these types of meat products contain carcinogenic ingredient known as sodium – nitrate, which is used to give the wrapped meat bright red color, so it could look fresh. A study conducted in 2005 by the University of Hawaii showed that processed meat increases the risk of pancreatic cancer up to 67%.


Carbonated drinks


They contain an enormous amount of calories, sugar and additional ingredients and have no nutritional value. One soft drink contains about ten bags of sugar (one bag is about 7 grams of sugar). According to research, the most popular dietary soft drinks have the same effect on tooth enamel as battery acid, which leads to increased tooth sensitivity and decay despite good oral hygiene. A survey conducted by the University of Minnesota shows that people who drink at least two soft drinks a week almost double the risk of developing pancreatic cancer.


Chips


Chips contain hydrogenated vegetable fat, carbohydrates, sodium, flavorings, artificial colors and preservatives. All this can cause clogged arteries. The high temperature at which the chips are produced usually causes formation of carcinogenic substances, such as acrylamide (the substance is found in cigarettes). Professor Dale Hattis, from the American University of Clark declares: “I estimate that acrylamide causes several hundred thousand of cancer developments per year.” Even the chips with reduced Trans – fats may contain acrylamide.


Microwave popcorn


According to a survey conveyed by the American universities, UCLA, chemicals that are found in the inner part of the bag, including perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), are part of the compounds that may be associated with infertility in humans. During the research, it was found that the chemicals cause the development of the liver, testes and pancreatic cancer. When you put the popcorns in the microwave, chemicals evaporate and get into the popcorns. Most manufacturers have promised to throw out PFOA by 2015.


Ordinary apples



According to research, apples contain the most pesticides .The presence of pesticides in more than 700 samples tested is 98%. Other highly contaminated foods are grapes, strawberries, potatoes and oranges. Of the samples tested, more than 90% contain traces of pesticides. Besides being toxic to humans, pesticides may increase the risk of some cancer development, and some research shows that if pregnant women are affected may increase the risk of reducing the IQ and hyperkinetic disorders in children. So wash your fruits and vegetables, as it is said, in “seven waters”.
