On the afternoon of January 11, 2022, the official account of the Retirement Department of CCTV Headquarters issued an obituary: Zhao He, a well-known host of CCTV and the former host of "Economic Half Hour" of the Financial Channel, died of illness.
As the host and planner of economic programs, Zhao He is known for his sharpness and stability. Suddenly hearing this news, many viewers who like his program found it difficult to accept for a while! According to Zhao He's former colleagues, Zhao He has been battling cancer for several years, but unfortunately, he still has not defeated the disease.
As the saying goes, "the disease comes from the mouth", and more and more of us with cancer have a lot to do with the change in our eating habits. There are many foods that are not good for health, long-term eating can induce cancer, the following 5 kinds of foods, it is best to eat less, so as not to increase the risk of cancer.
To prevent cancer, stay away from these four foods
(1) Processing of meat products
When we say processed meat products, we mainly refer to meat preserved with preservatives or processed by smoking, salting or salting, frying and roasting. Recent studies have found that a large intake of processed meat products increases the risk of colorectal cancer, breast cancer, endometrial cancer and so on. It may be related to the increase in nitroso compounds, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, ferrous heme compounds and other substances in processed meat, and the content of fat, salt and other substances in processed meat products is also high, which will also increase the risk of chronic diseases.
(2) Food that has been stored for too long
If food is stored for too long, there may be bacterial and fungal contamination. Some bacteria and fungi may be killed after high temperatures, but some of the toxins they secrete are high temperature resistance and will not be destroyed, such as aflatoxin produced by aflatoxin contamination, which is a class I carcinogen, which will induce liver cancer, bowel cancer and other diseases.
(3) Foods exceeding 65 ° C
Foods that are too hot can cause damage to the mucous membranes of the esophagus, and some people like to drink too hot water and eat hot food. These will cause damage to the esophagus over time, which can easily induce the occurrence of esophageal cancer. Therefore, "eating while hot" is a bad habit of life, try to avoid it.
(4) Tobacco and alcohol
Smoking is harmful to health, long-term smoking is easy to induce lung diseases, cardiovascular diseases, reproductive system diseases, but also a variety of cancer inducers, because tobacco after burning produces thousands of compounds, of which nicotine, tar and other hundreds of substances are harmful to the human body and even carcinogenic. In addition to the health of the smoker himself, people around him are exposed to second-hand smoke or even third-hand smoke, and there is also a risk of cancer and other diseases!
Drinking alcohol is harmful to health, whether it is low-grade or high-alcohol. Alcohol will burn the esophagus, damage the stomach and esophageal mucosal epithelium, enter the liver metabolism, but also liver cells, resulting in alcoholic liver, over time, induce cancer. Studies have shown that drinking alcohol increases the risk of cancers of the esophagus, mouth, throat, lung, liver and other cancers, no matter what kind of alcohol. According to the World Health Organization, there are more than 4.8 million people suffering from cancer in Europe in 2020, and the proportion of cancers in the world is the highest, and one of the reasons for the high number of cancers is excessive alcohol consumption.
(5) Betel nut
Betel nut in the north and south of our country food stores, commissaries and other places are very easy to see, some places, betel nut is even as popular as cigarettes, everyone pays tribute to each other, take some betel nut out to share, many people like to chew betel nut to refresh, eat on the addiction, do not know, betel nut contains alkaloids and other ingredients, long-term eating will induce oral fibrosis, oral cancer.
epilogue
In addition to being related to genetics, pathogen infections, and environmental factors, the onset of many cancers is also closely related to poor lifestyles, and a healthy diet helps us prevent the occurrence of cancer. Therefore, to prevent cancer, we should maintain a healthy diet and stay away from these 5 foods: processed meat products, foods that have been stored for too long, foods above 65 ° C, tobacco and alcohol, and betel nuts.
