At the same time, consuming foods high in salt such as pickled cucumbers and eggplants also increases the risk of obesity, high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease.
Use processed foods
Processed foods such as sausages, bacon, ham… are always delicious and convenient for busy family breakfasts. However, these foods contain nitrite – the main role of which is to create pink color for meat, prolong shelf life and make them softer.
Nitrite itself is not a carcinogen, but when it enters the body, it combines with protein-degrading substances in the stomach, forming a carcinogen called nitrosamine. In October 2015, the WHO classified processed meat as a “group 1 carcinogen”, with a level of danger equivalent to smoking, and is considered a possible cause of bowel cancer.
