Hi myLotters!
I have read an article from my Facebook account and it is about the TOP FIVE CANCER-CAUSING FOODS.. I have learned that those foods are the most usual foods we actually enjoy eating.. But realizing they're harmful for us makes me worry too much..
So I would like to share it to you..
1. HOTDOGS --Because hotdogs are rich in Sodium Nitrates, and it is advised that children eat no more than 12 hotdogs a month..
2. BACON AND OTHER PROCESSED MEATS -- Because they are also high in Sodium Nitrates and causes high risk of heart diseases..
3. DOUGHNUTS -- Since doughnuts are made with white flour, sugar, anhydrogenated oils, then fried at high temperatures. It was said that doughnuts may be the worst food that you can eat to increase your risk of having cancer..
4. FRENCH FRIES -- I know almost every person loves eating french fries.. But since fries are made with hydrogenated oils and fried at high temperature, which triggers acryl amides to occur, they are referred to as cancer fries and not french fries..
5. CHIPS, CRACKERS AND COOKIES -- This worried me so much since my kid loves eating cookies.. I thought it was safe for her.. But now I know, I wouldn't wanna give her any of these.. They are also made of white flour and sugar and contains trans-fats.. Even the label says it is trans-fat free, it still has some in it..
I hope this might be of help for all who gets to read this topic..
We should be careful about what we eat because our health is always at risk..

hello dear, it's really a sad fact of life that we can't eat those foods we enjoy eating. actually,those foods mentioned are delicious that it is hard to resist. most of them are my favorite.but i think we should learn to lessen our intakes on those foods mentioned above. for the sake of our own health.
thanks for sharing this information to all of us...
at first,i don't like to believe this is all true,and then i searched for it,then boom,here it is:

might as well,tell your brother to lessen his intakes on those kinds of foods too,same as your whole family as well....
but i really think it is really hard to avoid them. cause we sometimes crave for them.though,we can still eat them,but not always...

To stop eating them , I guess that would be hard.. But I think trying to avoid them because we know the fact that they are giving risks for us would be helpful..
Right now, we have donuts in the fridge.. And hotdogs too.. This morning I ate a hotdog.. I didn't want to eat donuts now, but what if my brother would bring home a box of yummy Krispy Kremes??? What should I do????
Well what I would do is not to buy hotdogs next time.. And I won't order fries anymore on fast foods.. And no more chips and cookies for my kid.. Bacon and the sorts, well I can live without them..
Let's just try our best to avoid those foods..It's for our own good anyway..
Thanks for the response dear!

Yes brisk, me too, I feel the same way.. I felt bad that our usual favorite foods are the ones that can cause us cancer.. And I guess I also can't stop eating them in a sudden.. But avoid having them I guess would do..
Oh my.. Krispy Kremes are my favorite doughnuts.. How can I be able to resist them??
Oh well, anyways, that's a very good idea.. Please pass this bit of an information to people you know.. Let's also be concerned about their health..
Thanks for responding brisk!

Thanks a lot for this informative article. But it's sad to see that doughnuts and cookies and french fries on that list. I really love all of them and i can't stop eating them. Do they really cause cancer?
I am a vegetarian so i don't have much choice when it comes to food. I have to adjust with whatever is there in my plate. But i really love doughnuts a lot. Guess i would have to stop eating them also now.
Cheers!

Me too raviteja.. I love almost all five.. But I was saddened that they are really harmful for us..
And I guess they really do.. That's the saddest part of it.. Doughnuts are my favorite.. and also french fries.. and all of them! Oh my..
Good thing you are a vegetarian.. I haven't tried eating only vegetables.. Wish I could..
Good Luck on that raviteja!
And thanks for responding as well..
