Three dietary principles prevent cancer for life

The progress of lifestyle has made eating a double-edged sword. Cancer is one of the diseases that you eat. On March 23, Professor Li Peiwen and Prof. Wan Donggui, two authoritative experts from the China-Japan Friendship Hospital of the Ministry of Health, presented a wonderful lecture on dietary cancer prevention for patients.

According to the “Qian Jin Fang” of the Tang Dynasty famous doctor Sun Sikai, “Whenever you want to treat, you should treat with diet first, then treat with food, and then use medicine.” In cancer etiology research, it was estimated that eating accounted for about 35% and smoking accounted for 30%. If the diet is reasonable, the risk of cancer can be reduced by 55%. Fifty years ago, the mortality rate of gastric cancer in the United States was very high, and Japan was the country with the highest incidence of gastric cancer in the world. Now it has obviously declined, and dietary control is an important factor. In Shanghai, the intake of meat and eggs has increased significantly in the past 30 years, and the proportion of total fat in fat has increased from 20.1% to 28%. The cause of death from cancer has risen from 7th to 1st. Therefore, to prevent cancer, we must follow three principles in our diet.

First, don't go over salty. If you reduce salt, salted products, eat more fresh vegetables, fruits, then the incidence of gastric cancer will decline. Nitrite is the leading killer of cancer. Stale vegetables, pickled ham, and pickles all contain this carcinogen. Under normal conditions, the nitrite in the diet will not cause harm to human health. Only the excessive intake of nitrite, and the lack of vitamin C in the body, will cause harm to the human body. If you eat too much salt, it will destroy the gastric mucosa, prompting the reduction of nitrate to nitrite.

Second, do not be too fine. The foods eaten by modern people are too fine, and the intake of cellulose is greatly reduced. Cellulose can absorb a large amount of water, promote bowel movements, speed up the excretion of feces, shorten the residence time of carcinogens in the intestine, reduce the unpleasant stimulation of the intestine, and thus prevent the occurrence of colon cancer. Coarse grains, cereals, celery, fungus and other foods are rich in cellulose. However, excessive intake of cellulose will affect the absorption of many nutrients, resulting in decreased physical strength, so 10-30 grams per day is appropriate.

Third, don't overdo it. Surveys have shown that if the intake of oil and animal protein increases, the incidence of colorectal cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, and pancreatic cancer will increase. High-temperature frying of food produces benzopyrene, heterocyclic amines, and acrylamide, which may be associated with lung adenocarcinoma in women, while boiling and microwave steaming do not occur.

The World Health Organization has also proposed five recommendations for preventing cancer through rational dietary habits: 1. Limit animal fat; 2. Increase crude fiber; 3. Reduce meat consumption; 4. Add fresh fruits and vegetables; 5. Avoid obesity.

Here we also recommend some anti-cancer foods: 1. Crucifers, including cabbage, Chinese cabbage, white radish, cauliflower, rapeseed. 2. Lily plants, such as onions, garlic, and lilies, should not be overheated during cooking. 3. Fruit: citrus, kiwi, apple, pineapple. 4. Fungi: mushrooms, straw mushrooms, mushrooms, fungus, do not repeatedly rinse. 5. Cereals: corn, millet, sweet potato, oats, glutinous rice, take care not to over-wash. In addition, fish, shellfish, and meat must be eaten in moderation, but don't smoke it when cooking.
