Causes of Cancer

Smoking is very often the main cause of cancer. It kills us silently and drains money from us quietly. There are 4000 harmful chemicals(though in diluted form) in one stick of cigarette. Taking one puff is 600 times worst than inhaling the exhaust fumes from vehicles.

Some Food that causes cancer are:
> Barbecued Food
> Deep Fried Food
> Overheating Meat
> Food that is high in fat causes our bile to secrete acid that contains a chemical which is a promoter of cancer cells.
> Food that contains preservatives, too much salt or nitrates(e.g. Canned food, Salted Egg & veggies, sausages, etc. )
> Overnight Rice (where Aflatoxin is accumulated)
> Food that is low in fibre : our body need 25 gm of both soluble & insoluble fibre daily. We must drink atleast 1.5 litres of plain water a day.
> Contaminated Food (e.g. moulded bread causes our body to secrete toxins that may eventually lead to liver cancer in the long run. Never eat bread that is kept in room temperature for more than 2 days especially in a humid weather like Chennai's.


  • Types of fat and which is the best
  1. Highly Recommended for Health :

> Cabbage is highly recommended for health reason.
> Tomato is best eaten raw with a bit of olive oil for better absorption. Other alternative is to take tomato sauce.
> Coffee is good because it contains2 anti-oxidants, Inhaling the coffee aroma for half each day is equivalent to 2 oranges a day. However the residue of over-burned coffee is extremely bad for health. It can cause cancer.
