Referring to rumors that food causes cancer
perfect ass , Professor Ma Liping, vice president of Guangxi Nutrition Association, said: almost every once in a while, friends and family call to ask whether eating a certain food causes cancer, making people who interact with food feel powerless every day. Ma Liping said: we can simply divide food into animal food, plant food and processed food. For fresh and simple animal food and plant food that we often eat, humans have eaten them for thousands of years, and there is almost no possibility of causing cancer.
Four major carcinogenic rumors
Where did the rumors of carcinogenic food come from? According to Ma Liping, the current rumors and misunderstandings of carcinogenic food are mainly divided into
1. Confuse toxicity with carcinogenicity
If some food is not preserved properly, it may spoil and deteriorate. In this case, the food itself tends to produce some toxicity. For example, potatoes after a long period of germination will have solanine, sugarcane mold will produce neurotoxins, there are. If these toxins are eaten, the body will become uncomfortable, but you can't get cancer right away. Therefore, don't worry too much if you eat it by mistake once in a while.
two。 Dose determines toxicity
Some foods do produce toxins under certain circumstances, and improper additives in processed foods are also carcinogenic, but the accumulation of toxins requires a certain dose to have an effect on the human body. For example, Coke previously advocated by American consumer rights groups can cause cancer, but the 4-methylimidazole contained in cola is indeed a carcinogen, but the amount of cola is very small, and drinking more than 1000 cans of cola a day can cause cancer risk. The same is true of the previous message that tomatoes contain nicotine to cause cancer.
3. There are scientific mistakes.
There are rumors that microwave oven food causes cancer, drinking soy milk causes breast cancer, and so on. Ma Liping said that the microwave oven only heats the water molecules in the food, and the food itself has no chemical changes and cannot produce carcinogens. Rumors of female breast cancer caused by estrogen in soybean milk are very popular at home and abroad, and phytoestrogens in soybean products are not equal to human estrogens. In addition, recent studies have shown that even breast cancer patients can rest assured to drink soy milk.
4. It's totally groundless.
The rumor has no scientific basis at all. For example, leek and milk, beef, can not be eaten together, there are books on the market. Ma Liping said that some food combinations may indeed affect the absorption of nutrients, but not carcinogenic.
Three kinds of food stay away.
Ma Liping, for rumors that food causes cancer, civilians should have their own judgment. They should not listen to the wind and rain. They should not touch certain foods that cause cancer. When you encounter rumors that food causes cancer, you can ask yourself these questions first. For example, how high is the content of toxic substances in this food? can this food be eaten every time? Do you eat a lot? While consulting the relevant information, you can ask the experts for help. In addition, in daily life, green leafy vegetables, dark vegetables are very good anti-cancer food, you can choose more.
Cancer caused by food is often a rumor
butt male chastity , but there are also some unsafe factors in food.
Ma Liping said that first of all
xxl dildo , there is rotten food. No matter it is animal food or plant food, as long as it is rotten and deteriorated, it can no longer be eaten. Because of its toxin in addition to abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea and other acute poisoning, there are more serious potential harm.
The next step is to stir-fry barbecue food, which will not only destroy the original nutrition of the food, but also produce chemical carcinogens such as benzophosphonium.
Finally, it is best not to eat foods that contain a variety of additives. Especially for children, long-term intake of large amounts of food additives will threaten growth, development and health.
