Top 10 Cancer-causing Foods You Must Stop Eating Today!! by StNonsky(m): 1:17pm On Dec 30, 2014
Here is a list of the top 10 foods that you most likely consume every day that may contain carcinogens or be suspected of causing cancer.

1) Microwave popcorn. They might be convenient, but those bags of microwave popcorn are lined with chemicals that are linked to causing not only infertility but also liver, testicular, and pancreatic cancers.Research has shown that perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) in microwave popcorn bag linings as “likely” carcinogenic, and several independent studies have linked the chemical to causing tumors. Similarly, the diacetyl chemical used in the popcorn itself is has been implicated in both lung damage and cancer.



2) Processed meats. Most processed meat products, including lunch meats, bacon, sausage, and hot dogs, contain chemical preservatives that make them last long without bacterial degradation, but sadly, those can also cause cancer. These preservatives include sodium nitrite and sodium nitrate and have been linked to significantly increasing the risk of colon and other forms of cancer. Therefore it is advisable to choose only uncured meat products made without nitrates, and preferably from grass-fed sources.



3) Genetically-modified organisms (GMOs). It goes without saying that GMOs have no legitimate place in any cancer-free diet, especially now that both GMOs and the chemicals used to grow them have been shown to cause rapid tumor growth. But GMOs are everywhere, including in most food derivatives made from conventional corn, soybeans, and canola. However, you can avoid them by sticking with certified organic, certified non-GMO verified, and locally-grown foods that are produced naturally without biotechnology.
