The Top Five Cancer-Causing Foods

1. Hot dogs
Because they are high in nitrates,
the Cancer Prevention
Coalition advises that children eat no more than 12
hot dogs a month. If you can't live without hot dogs,
buy those made without sodium nitrate.

2. Processed meats and bacon
Also high in the same sodium nitrates found
in hot dogs,bacon, and other processed
meats raise the risk of heart disease.The
saturated fat in bacon also contributes to cancer.

3. Doughnuts
Doughnuts are cancer-causing double trouble.
First, they are
made with white flour, sugar, and hydrogenated oils,
then fried at high temperatures. Doughnuts, says Adams ,
may be the worst food you can possibly eat to raise your
risk of cancer.

4. French fries
Like doughnuts, French fries are made with
hydrogenated
oils and then fried at high temperatures. They also
contain
cancer- causing acryl amides which occur during
the frying
process.. They should be called cancer fries, not
French fries,
said Adams .

5. Chips, crackers, and cookies
All are usually made with white flour and sugar.
Even the ones whose labels claim to be free of
trans-fats generally
contain small amounts of trans-fats.

SO AVOID TO MUCH FAST FOOD
