Cancer foods are foods that can cause cancer. Mutagenics are
substances which can eventually cause cancer if it’s absorption from
prepared food is not prevented. By heating whatever food, hundreds of
different mutagenic substances begin. The more protein the food contains,
the more mutagenics start off due to cooking. The activity of antioxidants
is very limited and not even large amounts of all the antioxidants combined
can neutralize a substantial part of these mutagenics.
The only way to effectively prevent cancer is to prevent the absorption of
mutagenic substances from prepared food. Consume as little prepared food,
especially proteinous prepared food, and consume as much fruits and some
fresh raw animal food regularly, like sashimi or fresh raw egg yolk.
Consuming cancer foods, like prepared meats increases the risk of
contracting cancer, because of their relatively high amount of mutagenic
substances. Vegetarians get cancer too, but a little less than those people
who eat more of meats. Prepared vegetables contain less mutagenic substances
than prepared meat. Two out of three scientific investigations show that
consuming prepared Soya beans instead of prepared meat causes less cancer.
Generally, eating vegetables is less cancerous than consuming other prepared
foods. However, all prepared food including vegetables, contain mutagenic
substances.
Cancer foods that increase the risk of cancer most are prepared foods
containing high quantities of protein like meat and fish, fats and
cholesterol like eggs; or iodide like found in sea fish, crustaceans, and
mollusks. Foods that have been intensively heated, smoked or salted, also
pose an increased risk to having cancer.
All prepared foods contain non-HCA damaged protein, which partly decompose
in the blood generating free radicals. All prepared foods therefore, will
eventually cause cancer if you live long enough. Modifying your diet to
reduce fat intake and increase fiber intake plus antioxidants and other key
nutrients can help reduce the risk of getting cancer. Healthy food selection
at the grocery store is the basic step towards an effective diet..
Some top ten anti-cancer foods include strawberries, oranges, tea, carrots,
spinach, tomatoes, garlic, whole wheat, cabbage, and beans. These foods
carry protective phytochemicals, which are “plant chemicals” that may reduce
heart disease and cancer risk. Here are some healthful nutritional tips:
Eat less total and saturated fat
Check the Nutrition Facts labels on food products to select foods with only
three grams of total fat or less. It seems that the saturated animal fats
are highly cancer cell promoter. Reducing intake of red meat, which is a
cancer food may be helpful too.
Eat more fruits and vegetables
Protective fiber, antioxidants Vitamin C and beta-carotene and hundreds of
phytochemicals naturally found in fruits and vegetables can reduce cancer
risk. Fiber binds to cancer-causing substances in the intestinal tract and
remove them as waste products. The antioxidant vitamins neutralize damaging
free radicals, substances produced by the chemical processes that go on in
our bodies every day. Allicin in garlic, genistein in soybeans, and
flavonoids in apples, are just a few of the cancer-protective plant
substances (phytochemicals).
Avoiding intake of cancer foods and promoting more antioxidants and
anti-cancer foods are an active step towards reducing and preventing the
risk of cancer altogether.
