These 3 foods are your regular favorites, but yet can cause cancer. Watch out
1. Microwave Popcorn
Microwaveable popcorn is convenient, but eating it is a risky endeavor. That’s because chemicals in the lining of the bag have been tested and found to cause testicular, liver and pancreatic cancers. The main culprit is a chemical called perfluorooctanoic acid. So the next time you decide to pop some popcorn, do it the old-fashioned way.
2. Canned Fruits
Just like microwaveable popcorn, it’s actually what the can is made with that causes cancer. The lining of most canned foods contains a deadly chemical called bisphenol-A. One study conducted in 2013 confirmed that bisphenol-A affects the way genes work inside the brain of rats. If that doesn’t make you wary, consider the fact that even the lax FDA is supporting efforts to minimize or eliminate bisphenol-A in canned goods. Canned fruits and vegetables that are extremely acidic seems to cause bisphenol-A to leech into them, so cook fresh or buy glass bottles.
3. Processed Meat
Here’s a list of some of the most common processed meats that contain carcinogens:
Bacon
Bologna
Pimento loaf
H0t dogs
Sausages
Researchers from the journal of BMC Medicine concluded that the chemicals and salts that are used while processing meats are pernicious. In this study, it was found that 1 in every 17 people that participated in the study died. The study included two groups of people: those who ate over 160 grams of processed meats, and those who ate 20 grams or less. The study concluded that those who ate over 160 grams of processed meats increased their risk of early death by as much as 44 percent when compared with those who ate 20 grams or less. The study included individuals from 10 European countries and lasted for over 12 years.
The chemicals (sodium nitrate and others) that are used to make meats look appealing and fresh are known to be cancer-causing agents. Smoked meats are even worse as the smoking process causes meats to pick up tar.
I will be sending in more dangerous food very soon, watch out what you eat!
