In fact, in daily life, some small details may become the main killer of tumors. Let’s see if you eat these foods, which may easily cause you to get tumors. I am happy to give you a little bit of hope. I wonder if you have heard of President Xiong Monian of Nanchang Qianjiafang Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. I suggest you go take a look and you will achieve your health goals!
1. Warm-heating foods
The so-called warm-heating foods refer to foods that are directly felt as having a temperature that is too high or too hot; the other refers to foods that are classified as traditional Chinese medicine. Foods of a warm nature. Because it is too pungent and hot, it is easy to damage the epithelial cells of the digestive tract mucosa, so foods of this nature are most likely to induce tumors of the digestive system.
(1) Overheated diet is an important cause of digestive tract tumors such as esophageal cancer. Eating too hot will damage and irritate the esophageal mucosal epithelium, and long-term stimulation will induce malignant transformation of the tissue. The digestive tract tumors of Chinese people are significantly higher than those of Westerners. This is related to the fact that Chinese people like hot food more and like to have hot soups, such as vegetable soup, batter, etc., with three meals a day. Compared with Chinese people, Westerners have a simpler diet. , usually hot soup is rarely seen, but cold drinks such as juice and cola are often consumed.
(2) Alcohol is pungent and hot in nature, and long-term drinking is the most common factor in the development of digestive system tumors. The southwest region of Shandong Province has a high incidence of esophageal cancer, which is related to the heat-loving and alcohol-loving diet in this area.
In fact, as early as 1964, the World Health Organization believed that excessive consumption of alcoholic beverages was related to oral cancer, laryngeal cancer and esophageal cancer. A survey conducted on Tongxing Township, where liver cancer has a relatively high incidence, and Xining Township, where the incidence is relatively low, in Qidong County, Jiangsu Province, found that the liver cancer mortality rate in the former was 2.5 times that of the latter. The two townships are only separated by a road, and have basically the same natural environment and similar smoking rates. The difference is that people in areas with a high incidence of liver cancer like to drink alcohol, while people in areas with a low incidence of liver cancer like to drink tea.
(3) Also classified as hot foods in traditional Chinese medicine are fried, smoked and grilled foods. Such foods become hot foods after being fried and baked at high temperatures. Studies have confirmed that long-term consumption of such foods can easily lead to gastric cancer, intestinal cancer, liver cancer, etc.
(4) There is also coffee. Just like Chinese people are addicted to tea, Westerners like to drink coffee. After five years of epidemiological investigation, American scholars believe that caffeine has a certain impact on the formation of pancreatic cancer and bladder cancer. People who drink coffee regularly are 2 to 3 times more likely to develop these two cancers than people who don't drink coffee. At least half of pancreatic cancer cases are caused by drinking too much coffee.
2. Foods with imbalance of the five flavors
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the five flavors should be balanced in the diet, and sweet, bitter, sour, pungent and salty foods should be eaten evenly. Any partial eclipse can lead to disease occurrence. Among the factors that cause tumors, too much fat, sweetness, greasyness and too much salty taste are common factors.
(1) Too fat, sweet, thick and greasy. According to traditional Chinese medicine, fat, sweet and greasy foods are sweet and greasy foods. According to clinical studies, excessive intake of sweet foods, namely starchy and sugary foods, can easily lead to gastric cancer; excessive intake of high-fat foods such as fatty meats and oils can promote breast cancer, colon cancer, rectal cancer, and pancreatic cancer. . From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, tumors belong to the category of accumulated syndrome. The "Nei Jing" believes that accumulated syndrome is the stagnation of body fluids and blood congestion, and a rich diet can easily promote dampness and phlegm, which will undoubtedly aggravate the aggregation of these pathological products.
From the perspective of modern medicine, regular consumption of high-fat diet can prompt the liver to secrete more bile. After entering the intestine, the primary bile acids in the bile are transformed by the action of intestinal anaerobic bacteria. They form deoxycholic acid and lithocholic acid, both of which are carcinogens and can cause cancer in the intestinal mucosa. At the same time, fat can also provide a suitable growth environment for various tumors.
(2) Too salty. In addition to salt, salty foods also include pickles, salted fish, bacon and other pickled foods. According to relevant studies, the risk of esophageal cancer for people who regularly eat pickled foods is 2.79 times higher than for people who don’t eat them regularly. The cancer most likely to be caused by eating salty food is stomach cancer. Gastric cancer and esophageal cancer are more common among Japanese fishermen who are addicted to salted fish. Addiction to eating salted fish is also an important factor in causing nasopharyngeal cancer. Malaysian researchers have found that coastal residents are more likely to suffer from nasopharyngeal cancer, and the reason is related to their love of eating salted fish. my country's census data proves that in areas with a high incidence of gastric cancer, the per capita salt intake is 50 grams per day; while in areas with a low incidence of gastric cancer, the per capita salt intake is only about 6 grams.
In fact, salt itself does not cause cancer. The cause of cancer is that high-concentration salt solutions can easily destroy the protective layer of gastric mucosa and cause mucosal erosion or ulcers. In this case, once invaded by carcinogens, local canceration of gastric mucosal cells will occur. Salt is an indispensable substance for the human body, but it should not be consumed in excess. It is generally believed that normal people's salt intake should be controlled within 6 grams per day.
