Can you eat cancer?

Recently, according to “Guangming.com”, Xiaomei and Xiaoyu jointly run a fruit shop.

Not long ago, the two always felt tired and weak. At first, they didn’t pay attention to it. They just thought that the store was too busy and tired recently. Until Xiaoyu’s iris and skin gradually began to turn yellow and thin, and Xiaomei had been losing her appetite. This made the couple pay attention to go to the hospital for examination. After the examination results came out, it showed that the couple were both diagnosed with liver cancer.

It turned out that although the couple opened a fruit shop by themselves, they never Willing to eat fresh fruit. The fruits that are usually eaten are eliminated in the store, and some rotten and moldy fruits are also eaten after removing the bad parts. Unexpectedly, it was such a bad habit that pushed the two into the “arms” of liver cancer.

The occurrence of liver cancer is directly related to diet. Many people do not care about the bad eating habits, which may lead to cancer.

I. The Lancet: The high incidence of cancer in China is closely related to diet

A study published in the journal The Lancet shows that About 45.5% of global deaths each year are related to unhealthy diets< span>. A systematic analysis of the impact of dietary risks on health in 195 countries from 1990 to 2017 showed that in 2017, there were about 11 million diet-related deaths worldwide. In other words, 1 in 5 deaths is caused by an unhealthy diet.

China’s diet-related cardiovascular disease and cancer mortality ranks first in the world, and in Chinese The top three bad eating habits are eating too salty, too thin and less fruit.

In addition to bad eating habits, the choice of food is also very important. It is recommended to avoid these as much as possible when choosing food in life.

Second, 4.06 million people suffer from cancer every year, so try to eat as little of these foods as possible

< p>Journal of National Cancer CenterThe latest data show that in 2016 alone there were new cancer cases in my country< span>4.064 million, of which 2.4135 million died of cancer. Such a high incidence and mortality rate of cancer is terrifying. If you want to prevent the occurrence of cancer, you are advised to eat less of these foods.

1. All beverages containing alcohol

Alcohol is defined by WHO as < /span>A class of carcinogens, drinking alcohol is an important carcinogen that may cause cancer. Note that liquor here refers to any beverage that contains alcohol, no matter what type it is.

2. Processed meat

Processed meat refers to marinated, fermented, oily Meat products made by frying and salting and other processes with a long storage time, including ham, sausage, bacon, salted fish, etc., these foods contain nitrate, nitrite< /span> and other carcinogenic ingredients, after high temperature cooking will produce polycyclic aromatic amines, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbonsand other carcinogenic long-term intake may induce cancer.

3. Moldy food

Moldy food is likely to contain < strong>Aflatoxin, aflatoxin is a carcinogen. It is the most toxic and carcinogenic chemical substance known so far. After ingesting aflatoxin, it may cause serious damage to liver function and even induce liver cancer.

4. BBQ food

The cooking process of food will producebenzopyrene, which is also a carcinogen. Long-term intake is associated with an increased risk of lung, liver, and gastrointestinal cancers.

5. Too hot diet

who will be greater than Beverages at 65℃ are classified as Class 2A carcinogens, that is, substances that may cause cancer. When our mouth and esophagus come into contact with food at about 65°C, burns will occur. Long-term intake of hot food may cause chronic inflammation and increase the risk of esophageal cancer to a certain extent.

So, whetherDoes it mean that eating these carcinogenic foods will definitely cause cancer?

Of course not, the occurrence of cancer is the result of a combination of factors, and eating the above foods may not necessarily lead to cancer. It mainly depends on the amount and frequency of eating. Occasional and small intake generally does not pose a great threat to health. List these foods, just suggest that everyone eat less, preferably not.

Cancer prevention is a “required course” that everyone needs to do, but many people don’t know how to do it. Don’t worry, I will share the views of the academician with you.

Three. If you want to prevent cancer, take the advice of the academician.

1. No health products can prevent cancer, only a reasonable diet can prevent cancer Cancer

Hao Xishan, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering believes that no health supplement can prevent cancer, only reasonable Diet can help prevent cancer. Pay attention to eating more fruits and vegetables (excluding kimchi and pickles) in daily life, do not eat moldy food, eat less processed food, do not eat burnt food, eat more plant-based food, and consume at least 400g of non-starchy vegetables and fruits per day .

2. Arrange a medical examination like an annual car inspection strong>

Physical examinations are also of great significance for preventing cancer.Sun Yan, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineeringreminds that once A normal physical examination does not mean that there will be no other problems in the body throughout the year. Physical examination must be done every year. Don’t think that the occasional physical examination can be normal for 3 to 5 years without doing it. Adhering to the annual physical examination can improve the chance of early detection of tumors.

3. Half of health is mental health, good mood can fight cancer

Academician Zhong Nanshan of the Chinese Academy of Engineering said that the occurrence of various diseases, ranging from colds to cancer, is related to negative emotions. Maintaining a good mood can increase the activity of NK cells (natural killer cells) in the body, which can directly drill into tumor cells to kill them. Under the bad mood for a long time, the activity of NK cells can decrease by more than 20%.

4. Exercise can fight cancer, swimming is the best

Academician Tang Zhaoyou of the Chinese Academy of Engineering pointed out that moderate swimming can mobilize the body’s anti-cancer ability and increase the body’s dopamine level. Dopamine can inhibit tumor growth and regulate immune function. Some people who can’t swim can also choose other sports for exercise, even shopping for groceries. Moderate exercise is very good for preventing cancer.

The occurrence of cancer is closely related to our habits in life. To prevent cancer, we must make changes in the details of our life, including diet, exercise, and regular physical examinations. .
