8 types of food that the more you eat, the more you "feed" cancer

The cause of cancer is believed to be due to disorders from within the body (accounting for more than 10%); more than 80% of cancers are related to environmental factors, including: unscientific lifestyle, bad habits and vices such as smoking, drinking alcohol, unsafe and unreasonable diet, unsafe sex... In addition, there are some factors related to occupation and environmental pollution.

Here are foods you should avoid as much as possible, if you don't want to feed cancer growth.

Genetically modified foods:These foods are rapidly entering the market supply at an alarming rate. Experts agree that comprehensive testing is not done before GMO foods are made available to consumers.

In other words, no one – including growers and manufacturers of genetically modified foods – knows the long-term effects these foods will have on human health.

Microwave popcorn:This item has always been at the center of cancer debates around the world. Not only is the corn kernels and oil used potentially genetically modified, but the fumes from the artificial butter flavoring containing diacetyl are also toxic to humans.

Make organic popcorn the old-fashioned way - it tastes better, doesn't emit harmful fumes, and is a healthier choice for you.

Canned food:The main culprit is the cans containing bisphenol-A (BPA), which has been shown to alter brain cells and alter genetic structure. Protect your DNA by eating fresh food.

Grilled meat:While grilled foods always taste delicious, scientists have discovered that when meat is exposed to large flames at high temperatures, heterocyclic amines (HCAs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are produced. These are compounds that easily affect cells and cause cancer. When red meat is grilled thoroughly, it changes the chemical and molecular structure of the meat.

Refined sugar:Refined sugars (and foods made with them) are responsible for insulin spikes and promote the growth of cancer cells.

A healthy option is organic honey, coconut sugar. Oncologists are now using diabetes drugs to fight cancer cells.

Salted, pickled, and smoked foods:These products often contain preservatives, such as nitrates, which are used to extend shelf life.

Additives used in processed foods can build up in your body over time. They eventually damage cells and lead to diseases including cancer. When smoked foods are cooked at high temperatures, nitrates are converted into much more dangerous nitrites.

Soda and carbonated drinks:Soda has been at the center of health debates over the past two decades. Loaded with high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS), and a host of other chemicals, they are very bad for your health.

These drinks provide no nutritional value and rob your body of nutrients it gets from other foods.

White flour:White flour is not just a wheat product because it has been treated with chlorine gas to bleach it. Because of the high chlorine gas content, it can easily cause diabetes and increase cancer cells.
