One late afternoon when my dietician friend and I met, she told me a lot about the
cancer patients in her hospital. She told me that if only these people ate the right foods, then they might not be suffering any grave ailment today. I don't understand what my friend is saying since I'm an ignoramus when it comes to health and science. This is the reason I majored in Literature and not Biology or any science courses. She told me that the food we intake can actually be the cause of cancer. It's really better to be conscious about the foods that we should not eat since they can cause cancer.
I asked my friend if it's okay to eat
delicious seafood recipe, she said that it's okay since it has low saturated fat which is good for the body. I felt relieved since I'm a seafood addict. My friend also told me that it's not bad to eat fats as long as you eat the right ones -- like unsaturated fat. It's also better to take a lot of fiber foods like pineapple. This will lower the risk for colorectal cancer. It is also advisable to eat many raw vegetables and fruits. She also told me that it's good to eat soy products, which contain a lot of protein that is good for the body. In fact, it has lots of protein as compared to meat.
I was astonished to find out that what we eat can also be the cause for having cancer. I am very thankful to my friend because she informed me about this piece of info. Starting today, I will watch my diet to avoid cancer.
