Cancer from certain foods? Which ones are they? The idea of being confronted with the horrific diagnosis of cancer at some point is undoubtedly frightening. While many factors play a role in the development of cancer, there are some that we can actively influence - and diet is of great importance here. In current research, certain foods are being discussed as potentially carcinogenic. However, it should be emphasized that most foods have both positive and less beneficial aspects for health. So it is not always so easy to say that a certain food basically causes cancer. #cancer #health #who Cited studies: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28913... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29444... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32777... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33964... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31089... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22949... ⏩ First get informed, then supplement: Feel free to take a look at my guides https://bit.ly/RatgeberHowTo ✅ ❎ 100% independent ❎ 100% study-based ❎ 100% medically correct Regular consumption of pork and beef has been linked to an increased risk of cancer. This may be due to the heme iron contained in meat, which can trigger cancer-promoting activities in the intestine. Nevertheless, iron is an essential trace element. The German Nutrition Society recommends a weekly amount of meat of 300-600 grams to minimize the risk. Processed meat is also under discussion. The production of ham, bacon and similar products produces chemical compounds such as nitrates and nitrites, which are considered potentially carcinogenic. Harmful substances can also be produced when meat is grilled, roasted or deep-fried. The debate about cow's milk as a possible carcinogenic factor is controversial. Natural hormones in milk could influence the growth of cancer cells. However, the connections have not yet been conclusively researched. So far, scientific evidence has only shown an increased risk of prostate cancer with high milk consumption. Alcohol is known to be carcinogenic and can increase the risk of various types of cancer such as esophageal, liver, colon or stomach cancer. This is because alcohol is converted in the body into acetaldehyde, which can cause mutations in the DNA. Smoking in combination with alcohol consumption also increases the risk. Sugar is linked to diseases such as obesity and diabetes, which in turn can affect the risk of cancer. Excess body fat caused by sugar can trigger hormonal changes in the body that can increase the likelihood of cancer. Reduce your sugar consumption to a maximum of 50 g per day, as recommended by the WHO and DGE. Finally, it should be stressed that not only the type of food, but also how it is prepared plays a role. Hot drinks over 65 degrees can attack the esophagus and increase the risk of esophageal cancer. Harmful substances can be created when meat is grilled or heated to a high temperature. Clean conventional fruit and vegetables thoroughly or use organic products. ▬ About this channel ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ With “Video Visit Dr. Weigl" you have found the current and medical-scientific channel that describes topics related to pain, #medicine and #health in an understandable way but based on facts, guidelines and studies. ▬ Even more videos ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Typical cancer symptoms: https://bit.ly/Krebssymptome_Video Do you know how cancer develops and spreads?: http://bit.ly/KrebsEntstehung_Video Lung cancer: Why do smokers and non-smokers get sick?: https://bit.ly/Lungenkrebs_Video 5 questions and errors in thinking about cancer: http://bit.ly/KrebsFragen_Video Tumor pain: Does cancer hurt?: http://bit.ly/Tumorschmerz_Video ▬ Social Media ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ►Facebook: https://bit.ly/facebook_DrWeigl ►Website: https://doktorweigl.de ►TikTok: / doktorweigl ►Instagram: / doktorweigl ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Legal notice / disclaimer: The videos are for your information only and never replace personal advice, examination or diagnosis by a licensed, qualified specialist.
