Most cancers are closely related to eating habits, such as eating high-fat and high-sugar foods, eating moldy foods, or smoking and drinking a lot.

As long as you master a healthy diet, you can stay away from cancer.

What dietary principles need to be mastered to prevent cancer?

1. The ratio of animal protein to vegetables should be controlled at 1:2. Animal protein should not exceed 1/3 of each meal, and vegetables should account for at least 2/3.

Try to choose dark-colored vegetables and fruits because they contain a lot of antioxidants, which can better fight cancer.

In addition, the dietary fiber and pectin contained in vegetables and fruits help eliminate toxins and garbage in the body, maintain a normal weight, and prevent obesity.

2. Eat more fish and broiler chickens. In winter, many people like to eat red meat, such as dog, beef, and mutton, which are really delicious.

It also provides heat to the body but increases the risk of colorectal, lung, and breast cancer.

Try to use chicken or fish instead of red meat.

Generally, the unsaturated fatty acids in white meat can lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels.

3. Eat whole grains appropriately for dinner. Try to arrange the time to eat whole grains as much as possible.

4 points for rice flour and 6 points for whole grains.

Oatmeal and brown rice can be eaten together with small and large rice to achieve a balanced nutritional intake.

Eat whole grains as much as possible with eggs and meat to achieve complementary nutrition.

4. Eat more crispy vegetables. You can usually eat crispy and delicious raw vegetables and chew them slowly to release the anti-cancer substances inside, such as cucumbers, tomatoes, garlic, etc.

But be sure to wash it thoroughly before eating.

Orange and dark green vegetables should be heated to help the body absorb carotenoids.

5. Eat garlic and green onions appropriately. The allicin contained in garlic and green onions has antioxidant effects, which can prevent nitrite from remaining in the body and reduce the risk of gastric cancer.

But garlic is crushed, and only when it is fully combined with oxygen can it fully exert its anti-cancer effect.

Therefore, garlic should be crushed and left for 15 minutes before consumption.

What dietary habits increase the risk of cancer?

1. High-fat diet High-fat food contains a large amount of saturated fatty acids, which will affect the endocrine environment, stimulate the hypothalamus and pituitary gland, increase estrogen secretion, stimulate the proliferation of breast epithelial cells, and increase the chance of breast cancer.

Eat 200 grams of animal foods every day, such as eggs or fish and poultry.

Do not use more than 25g of cooking oil per day, which can reduce the number of meals out.

2. Drinking a lot of alcohol can directly damage liver cells, causing degeneration or necrosis of liver cells, leading to alcoholic liver disease.

If it is not effectively controlled, it will develop into cirrhosis or liver cancer.

3. High-calorie diet, high-protein-high-sugar and high-fat diet are the main factors leading to pancreatic cancer.

In addition, overeating can increase the burden on the pancreas and lead to acute pancreatitis.

Without effective treatment, the risk of pancreatic cancer increases.

4. Eat moldy food. Moldy food is contaminated by Aspergillus aflatoxin and produces aflatoxin. Aflatoxin is a strong chemical carcinogen that can cause liver cancer.

Do not eat moldy and rotten food, especially moldy nuts and grains such as peanuts, melon seeds, walnuts and sugar cane.

5. Meat and Fried Foods Eating too much meat and fried foods, eating less vegetables, fruits and whole grains, and lacking a certain amount of exercise will slow down gastrointestinal motility and easily induce constipation.

In addition, a high-fat diet will increase intestinal bile acid secretion, cause repeated irritation and damage to the intestinal mucosa, and increase the probability of colorectal cancer.

At least 500 grams of different types of vegetables and 200 grams of fresh fruits should be ensured every day. The meat and vegetables should be well matched with the thickness.

Maintaining moderate exercise every day can prevent intestinal polyps from becoming cancerous.

6. Preserved foods A high-salt diet is the main factor in inducing gastric cancer, because the high osmotic pressure of salt after a high-salt diet will damage the intestinal mucosa, thereby increasing the probability of gastric cancer.

Try to eat as little bacon or pickles as possible, and the daily salt intake should not exceed 6 grams.
