CAN EATING FRUITS HELP
YOU PREVENT CANCER?
An article released this morning in the British Journal of Cancer — or at least the media
coverage it’s getting — may seem perplexing. The headlines in the United Kingdom have
already begun: “Fruit and vegetables do not cut overall cancer risk.”
The review research suggests that food and cancer guidance should emphasise on the
negative consequences of obesity and alcohol consumption, as well as consuming a
healthy number of fruits and vegetables.
The paper contains numerous aspects that are in agreement with AICR’s expert report
and revisions. The AICR will issue a press release to that effect shortly. At first glance, the
picture of fruits and vegetables with cancer may appear perplexing, but let’s start with
the basics:
Eating a healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables will help you lose weight.
Because there is compelling evidence that excess body fat raises the risk of six forms of
cancer, including colorectal and breast cancer, the effect on weight is critical to cancer
prevention.
Not All Cancers Are Created Equal
According to the AICR expert assessment, there is plausible evidence associating fruit
and vegetable consumption to malignancies of the mouth, pharynx, and larynx, as well
as cancers of the stomach, oesophagus, and lung (fruits only).
The challenge of adequately assessing smoking and alcohol in studies looking at food
and cancer is one of the important concerns stated in the review study. Many of the
malignancies associated to the preventive effects of fruits and vegetables are also
substantially connected to smoking and alcohol consumption. Smokers are more likely
to consume fewer fruits and vegetables than non-smokers. Despite the fact that studies
try to account for smoking and alcohol consumption, most experts agree that more
research is needed to separate the impacts of smoking, alcohol, and fruits and
vegetables on cancer development.
DO SOME FOODS PREVENT OR CURE
CANCER?
According to the oncologist in Delhi Although there is no one-size-fits-all meal that
will prevent or cure cancer, your overall diet can have an impact on your cancer risk. By
eating correctly, being active, and maintaining a healthy body weight, almost one out of
every five cancer occurrences can be avoided.
A well-balanced diet can help you achieve and maintain a healthy body weight, which
lowers your cancer risk. Certain foods, but not all foods, can lower or raise the risk of
cancer. Consuming processed meat, for example, raises your risk of colorectal cancer.
Eating a variety of vegetables, fruit, and other high-fibre foods, on the other hand, can
help lower your cancer risk.
DOES EATING FRUIT FIGHT BREAST
CANCER?
Consuming fruit on a daily basis may assist to lower the risk of breast cancer or prevent
a recurrence. In fact, a 2018 study of over 300 women found that eating fruits on a
regular basis reduced the chance of breast cancer, particularly the more aggressive
subtypes. 1 Fruit is well-known for its antioxidants, which are molecules that combat
cancer-causing free radicals, but it also contains additional components that are likely to
contribute to these health advantages.
Fruits may help to prevent or treat breast cancer because of their:
Effects of natural phenolic compounds: Natural phenolic compounds have long been explored
for their chemo preventive (cancer prevention) and chemotherapeutic (cancer treatment)
properties. Several forms of phenolic compounds have been reported to reduce the proliferation
(growth) of various malignancies, suggesting that they have a direct influence on cell cycle
development. (Phenols also have antiseptic and antibacterial qualities, as well as the ability to
stimulate the nervous and immunological systems, providing additional health benefits.)
Antioxidant activity: Because oxidative stress can damage genetic information in cells, which can
lead to cancer, fruits with antioxidant activity are believed to help reduce cancer risk.
Antiproliferative properties: Several fruits appear to have antiproliferative properties, preventing
the growth of a variety of cancer cells.
KEEP CANCER AT BAY BY FOLLOWING A
HEALTHY DIET
A nutritious diet is a must for maintaining good health and preventing the advent of a
variety of disorders that affect the human body. A nutritious diet can also prevent the
start of cancer, as any best cancer doctor specialist in Delhi will tell you.
1.Fresh fruits and vegetables
2.Fiber and whole grains
3.Meat alternatives
4.Dietary fat
5.Herbs and spices
6.Salt, water
