Diet for Colon Cancer Patients
The American diet also known as the western diet is not highly recommendable and reputed. This contains large concentrations of fried food, meat, added fat and sugary beverages.
Nearly 35% of the population eats low in vegetables, fruits, milk products and oils
More than half of the population meet or exceed the guidelines of the total grain and the maximum protein foods but do not follow their subgroup recommendations (such as whole grains).
Many Americans meet the sugar, saturated fats, and sodium added guidelines.
The way many people think about dinner has been questioned by the latest developments in natural foods and lifestyle diets (palleo, organic, rough food, gluten-free, keto, wholesale 30, among others).
Diets that are high in red and processed meat are related to a higher risk of colorectal cancer (UKS 2015). A new research in Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers and Prevention indicates that the risk of colon and rectal cancer in women is rising with processed meat. Women need to go for colon cancer screening more after a certain age.
This is just the first research to show that the risk of developing cancer can be raised by red and processed meat. All meats were listed as carcinogenic (a problem that can cause cancer) in 2015 by the World Health Organization (WHO).
Red meat is listed as Category 2A carcinogen according to the World Health Organization (WHO), meaning that red meat is likely to cause cancer in humans, although this classification is based on limited studies. The processed meat is listed as Group 1 cancer and it is shown that the correlation between processed meat and cancer is high enough to prove.
Evidence from a meta-analysis recently showed that not all meats processed are similar. Queen's University of Belfast scientists also found that all meats do not have the same potential for cancer. We found that sodium-nitrite-containing beef, a component that increases food's shelf-life, has a greater risk of cancer than processed non-nitrite beef.
It's difficult to know what to believe with all the contradictory research and news stories. Further work on diet, nutrition and the impact of red and processed meat is needed as expected.
We are aware that fruit and vegetable-rich diets increase the impact of diabetes, encourage weight control, and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and stroke. In addition, the propensity for vegetarian diets (fruit, vegetables, dairy and cereals) is lower and pescovegetarians (vegetarians who often consume fish) are at even less risk for developing colorectal cancers.
Preliminary research into prostate and breast cancer led to a theory of a sluggish tumor growth of vegetable proteins and a growth of tumors by animal proteins. While the work is exciting, it is incredibly restricted and doesn't imply that reducing animal proteins will contribute to remission of cancer.
