It was reported that she had a cough which later developed in pneumonia in her first semester at the institution.

Here, you are provided with those foods that have been linked to cancer after they have been tested and confirmed to be carcinogenic. Here, you are provided with those foods that have been linked to cancer after they have been tested and confirmed to be carcinogenic.

I want you to remember that you only have this one life to live and by watching out for the foods that will be listed here, you cut the risk of getting cancer by 20 to 40 percent, according to researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard.

According to cancer research UK, eating healthier food choices reduces the possibility of being overweight. And it has been found that aside from smoking, obesity is the second biggest preventable cause of cancer.

Also, choosing a healthy diet can reduce the risk of six different types of cancer, which are; lung, stomach, larynx, bowel, upper throat, and mouth cancer.

What Food causes Cancer?

The following are foods that should be on your watch-list when it comes to being cancer aware;
Saturated Fat

According to the National Cancer Institute (NCI), a saturated fat is a type of fat that has some chemical properties and it is usually solid at room temperatures.

Consumption of too much saturated fat in early childhood has been linked with breast cancer by this study. Also, other cancers like colorectal cancer, endometrial cancer, ovarian cancer, and prostate cancer have been linked to consumption of saturated fats by several case-control studies.

Although the association of saturated fats and these cancers were found to be weak and difficult to prove in epidemiological terms, it is still found to have SOME association.

Some examples of foods high in saturated fats include; cheese, butter, salami, the skin on poultry products like chicken, lard, and so on.
Genetically Modified Foods

These are more commonly known as GMOs. Most wheat, corns and grains in the market nowadays has been genetically modified.

The problem with GMOs is that it is still a grey area that the consumers have a responsibility to tread carefully.

This is because the Government and the manufacturers of GMO-products have no way to test the adverse effects that these GMOs might have on the health of humans. It’s a matter of consuming them at your own risk.

A test that was carried out on rats by feeding them GMOs found that the rats showed damaged immune systems and cancerous cell growth after just ten days.

The fast-food industry has picked up on this need for people to “eat conveniently”, “eat deliciously” and “eat fast” at the same time. They are using the age-old, ever so effective economic rule of filling the supply of a very demanding society.

The convenience-on-demand can range from driving through your favorite fast food place and having your order ready within minutes to placing a call order from your home and having a pizza delivered.

What makes fast foods dangerous for your health?

In order to compensate for the deliciousness of the menu served at fast food joints, the ingredient compositions of most fast foods are devastating to health.

On top of that, these fast food companies would want to turn a profit at the end of the year, so, over the years, they have learned to cut cost and compromise in production at the risk of the health of the consumers.

These fast foods are processed, they contain artificial sweeteners, ridiculously high sodium content, trans-fat, and to top it all, dangerous preservatives are used to prevent the foods from going bad.

The adverse health conditions caused by these processes are dramatic and alarming and serious attention needs to be paid to them.

The effects are not only limited to the physical, they also spill over to mental health issues and even emotional health issues.
What qualifies as fast/junk foods?

Before we go on to list those health problems, let’s take a quick detour to quickly access what qualifies as junk/fast foods.

According to Dr. Fuhrman in his book Fast Food Genocide, fast foods are anything wrapped in bags, box, or a wrapper.

Examples of fast foods are fries, soda (Coca-cola, Pepsi), energy bars, energy drinks, cookies, cakes, candy, processed snack foods, foods made with white flour, cheese, bagels and the list goes on.

With this list, it is pretty clear that it is not only foods bought at fast food joints that are junk. Fast foods, processed foods, and snacks are all in the junk category. Over the counter indulgences like sweets, lunching snacks, biscuits also fall into this category.

After a long look at the menu at fast food joints, foods that can be “remotely” classified as “healthy” are salads and chickens. But before you start adding those to your purchase list, I want you to know that those “chickens” are actually about 50% chicken.

A recent DNA testing of the meat from fast food places found that fast-food chickens contain “a quarter less protein” than chicken cooked in homes. Also, fast-food chickens have sodium levels that are between seven to ten times more than what was found in conventional chickens.

The vegetables that fast-food chains often serve are not close to being totally organic. These are GMO, pesticide, and insecticide laden vegetables that are grown in a not so ideal condition. Also, preservatives would have been used on these products which would make it more devastating.

Below are 8 health problems associated with fast foods you should know:
1. Fast foods account for one-third of heart diseases in people globally
“Diets comprising mostly of fried foods, salty snacks and meat account for 35 percent of global heart attacks” – Researchers at McMaster University in Ontario, Canada

A study conducted in Canada spreading over 52 countries, took blood samples of over 16,000 patients, with 5,700 of those being heart attack patients. The research came to a conclusion that junk food and animal fats result in heart diseases with heart attacks being paramount.

Why frequent fast-food consumption is a highway to heart disease is because of the high SODIUM content of most fast-foods. Fast-food products are associated with high sodium levels.

This is so that the food can have a lasting delicious taste that will appeal to customers.

Although the recommendation of sodium consumption per day for a normal adult is 2,300mg which is almost the same as taking a tablespoon of salt, it has been found that the average person takes in about 3,400mg of sodium per day.

High sodium content in the body raises the blood pressure while at the same time making the kidney work overtime. High blood pressure often results in heart attacks, kidney disease, heart failure and the list goes on.
2. It is the major source of child and adult obesity

Fast foods are known to be packed with a large number of calories. These calories are also known to be empty, that is, it lacks nutritional values. These foods also come in large portions and they are usually not very filling (satisfying).

According to researchers, obesity increase all over the world has been linked to calorie intake increase. Another problem we are facing is that the type of lives we live nowadays is of the sedentary type.

Those big calories we consume from fast foods are not being burned. Lacking adequate movement in our present way of life combined with constant fast food consumption is why obesity is currently an epidemic that is spreading rapidly amongst citizens of the world.

Obesity in itself is the perpetrator of different kinds of diseases. The diseases that obese people are prone to include heart disease, diabetes, some certain types of cancer, high blood pressure, gout, sleep apnea and so on.

Headaches are a common occurrence all around. Most of the times, headaches are a continuous pain in any region of the head.

Scientists recently found that the pain we feel in the head when we experience headaches are due to the pain signals the nerves and tissues surrounding the brain are sending to the brain.

In this post, we explore different headaches and what they mean. The different types of headaches could be classified based on the location of the pain in the head, what is triggering the headache, and the type of symptoms it is presenting.

The mistake that a lot of people make is that they don’t know that there are different headaches aside from migraines.

Some people can’t actually explore which kind of headache they are having and they start popping pills at the slightest sign of pain in their head.

There are about 150 documented types of headaches. So, we aim to explain the different headaches that are most common and what they mean so that next time you experience one of those, you know the best course of treatment.

1. Drug rebound headaches

This can range from substance abuse to the normal over the counter drug prescriptions. Someone consuming any type of drug can experience a sought of kick-back in the form of a headache.

If we take note of the drugs we consume on a regular basis, some would have been specified as having headaches as side effects. Common examples of drugs that cause rebound headaches are aspirin, codeine, ibuprofen, caffeine-containing drugs (or other food substances like coffee, soda and so on) some ulcer treatment drugs and so on.

Also, aside from being caused by being a side effect of a drug, rebound headaches can also be caused by the over-use of a drug or wrong-use (not using as prescribed by the physician).

These headaches are characterized by a persistent headache throughout the day, reoccur every morning when we wake up, and their presentation often mimics other forms of headaches.

When next you are experiencing a form of a headache, before reaching for the drug cabinet to take more drugs, if you are currently on a particular drug, it’s probably best to read the pamphlet of the drug you are currently taking to make sure that one of the side effects of that drug is not headache.
