In today’s article we’ll reveal the 10 most common causes of cancer to which we are exposed on a daily basis, but of which we often have no idea.
However, today’s article is not intended to scare you, but to draw attention to possible risks associated with lifestyle and products that, as we mentioned, you may not even be aware of.
According to many websites dealing with alternative medicine, pharmaceutical companies are mainly behind their concealment. They make billions from treating cancer and, of course, do not want to lose that income.
1/ Hormones in milk and meat
Most farm animals in large-scale farms are fed artificial hormones to increase production. Such artificial hormones, after consumption, provoke inflammation, cancer and many other diseases in the human body.
2/ Mammograms, dental x-rays and airport scanners
Did the nurse or doctor forget to tell you to put on protective aprons over your chest before she quickly ran out of the mammography room? Yes, we’re talking about the deadly rays of x-ray radiation that cause cancer.
Wait a moment, didn’t you come for a mammogram precisely because you want to protect yourself from cancer, not to get it right there?
3/ Aluminum in deodorants and antiperspirants
The vast majority of breast cancer cases are located in the upper quadrant of the breast near the armpit. Yes, exactly where we apply deodorants full of aluminum. Instead, prefer to use homemade natural deodorants. You can find many of those on the internet.
4/ Toxic cosmetics on the skin
The skin is our largest “organ”. Yet we constantly apply preservative or decorative cosmetics to it that are full of petroleum products and coal tar content. These substances freely penetrate through the skin into the bloodstream and body organs, where they create a breeding ground for cancer cells.
Therefore you should start using organic or homemade cosmetics and make up for the damage done so far.
5/ Genetically modified soy and corn
Most soy and soy products sold today are genetically modified. If you are, for example, a fan of soy milk, it’s better to switch to something else. Soy milk contains hemagglutinin, which leads to the formation of blood clots.
Soy (both conventional and genetically modified) also increases estrogen levels in the body. That can promote the development of certain estrogen-sensitive cancers, such as breast cancer. Buy milk in organic quality, whether it’s cow’s, rice or another type.
6/ Artificial sweeteners
Common sugar (sucrose) is harmful to the body because it sharply raises blood sugar levels. Fruit sugar (fructose), which is often used in sweetened soft drinks, is also quite a big problem. Cola drinks are colored with caramel coloring, which is among known carcinogens.
And how to alternatively replace sugar? For example with these 10 most popular substitutes:
- Natural cane sugar
- Dried cane juice
- Honey
- Molasses
- Grain syrups (rice, wheat, corn, etc.)
- Fruit syrups (concentrates)
- Maple syrup
- Agave syrup
- Birch “sugar”
- Stevia
7/ Fluoride
No, it’s not a mineral found in nature that is even added to drinking water in some countries. Fluoride is a chemical element that displaces other minerals from the body, increases bone fragility, causes dental fluorosis and overall weakens the immune system. It can even cause cancer.
If possible, buy fluoride-free toothpastes. If that’s not possible, put only a minimum amount of paste on the toothbrush and make sure you don’t swallow it. This applies especially to children.
8/ Medicines, vaccinations
Look for a doctor who, besides prescribing antibiotics, will also advise you in the area of lifestyle and healthy nutrition for cancer prevention. If possible, avoid traditional medicines from large pharmaceutical companies with big names.
Many vaccinations in the past have been shown to be possible causes of cancer. An example is the live polio vaccine, which bwas contaminated with the monkey virus SV-40 causing cancer in humans. Currently, almost all vaccines are a problem. They contain known carcinogenic substances such as formaldehyde, formalin or aluminum.
9/ Foods in cans
Most cans are coated with a lining that contains the carcinogenic substance Bisphenol-A (BPA). In addition, experiments have shown that the said substance changes mouse brain cells at the genetic level.
Many plastics, thermal paper, water pipes and dental fillings also contain BPA.
10/ Commercial soaps, shampoos, toothpastes, creams
Again, similarly to toxic skincare cosmetics, the chemicals from other types of cosmetics that are applied to the skin, hair and teeth end up in your bloodstream. Perfumes, dyes, animal by-products and other suspicious substances can cause cancer. The solution is to buy natural or organic cosmetics without harmful additives, or to make your own cosmetics.
There is one wise saying that is good to follow:
“If you wouldn’t eat it, don’t put it on your skin either.”
