Diet Linked To Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma
Diet Linked To Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma
Meat, Saturated Fat, Dairy May Raise Risk By Daniel DeNoon Reviewed By Brunilda Nazario, MD WebMD Medical News 3-24-4 ... "What we found is if a person has a higher intake of animal protein, they will have a higher risk of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma," Zheng tells Web. "And people who have a higher intake of saturated fat have an increased risk. On the other hand, if you have higher-than-average intake of dietary fiber -- particularly if you frequently eat vegetables and fruits with a high fiber content -- you have a reduced risk of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma." The findings appear in the March 1 issue of the American Journal of Epidemiology. Earlier studies hinted at the same thing. Now, Zheng says, it seems clear that a major factor in the mysterious rise of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is a diet high in meat, saturated fats, dairy products, and eggs and low in fiber, fruits, and vegetables. Unbalanced Diet, Unhealthy Body ... ... what is happening to the American is associated with a number of malignancies such as breast, kidney, and colon cancer. Higher body weight is a common theme." A high-fat diet may indeed be linked to higher body weight. But Zheng says that people eating low-carb diets may also be at risk of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma if they eat too much meat and too few vegetables. One thing that's known about non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is that people whose immune systems aren't working well -- such as AIDS patients -- are at increased risk. Zheng suggests that immune function depends on proper nutrition. "Your body is designed to repair things," Zheng says. "But if your body is not getting proper nutrition, how can the immune system continue to function? Everything relates to the nutrients in your dietary intake." Cancer-Fighting Foods Zheng's study showed that people who ate more of certain foods tended to have a lower risk of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Those foods include: Tomatoes Broccoli Squash Cauliflower Onions Mixed lettuce salad Leeks Apples Pears Citrus fruits Improving your diet won't just lower your cancer risk, Mueller notes. "There is such a confluence between risk factors for cancer and risk factors for heart disease," she says. "Get plenty of exercise, eat a good diet, don't smoke. It is what your mother told you. It's true that this is the basis of a healthy lifestyle. And it's true that this lowers your risk for these big killers, too." SOURCES: Zheng, T.

Yup. Veggies are mandatory from day one on. I thought you could eat as much fat and protein as you desired, but that vegetables and fruit were restricted? Because you haven't even read the book. Yet you're foolish enough to go around making pronouncements about it. Do you have any idea how hilarious it is watching idiots who haven't even read the book go around pontificating about it? maybe you should do some research instead of just making assumptions. Why don't you answer my questions in a civil manner instead of just making assumptions? It's not the job of regulars on ASDLC to read the book for others. Ignorance is curable, stupidity is incurable. Are you ignorant or stupid? Reading the book will cure ignorance. Go for it! |
