Refined sugar:
The same goes for refined sugar, which tend to rapidly spike insulin levels and feed the growth of cancer cells. Fructose-rich sweeteners like high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) are particularly offensive, as cancer cells have been shown to quickly and easily metabolize them in order to proliferate. And since cookies, cakes, pies, soda juices, sauces and cereals and many other particular mostly processed Food items are loaded with HFCS and others refined sugar, this helps explain why cancer rats are on th rise this days.
Conventional Apples, grapes, and other dirty fruits:
Many people think they are eating healthy when they buy apples, grapes or strawberries from the store. But unless these fruit are organic or verified to be pesticide-free, they could be a major cancer risk. The environment working group found that up to 98 percent of all conventional produce, and particularly the type found on its ‘dirty’ fruits list, is contaminated with cancer-causing pesticide.
Farmed salmon:
Farmed salmon is another high risk cancer food, according to Dr. David carpenter, Director of the institute for health and environment at the University of Albany. According to his assessment, farmed salmon not only lacks vitamin D, but it is often contaminated with carcinogenic chemicals, PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyl), flame retardants, pesticides and antibiotics
Hydrogenated oils:
They are commonly used to preserve processed foods and keep them shelf-stable. But hydrogenated oils alter the structure and flexibility of cell membranes throughout the body, which can lead to a host of deliberating disease such as cancer. Some manufacturer’s are phasing out the use of hydrogenated oils and placing them with palm oils and other alternatives, but Tran fats are still widely used in processed foods.
