Summer is coming, and you're about to eat barbecue again, which is on the list of carcinogenic foods. Foodies, be careful, many foods hide cancer, don't let cancer come from your mouth!
I. Pickled foods: Dimethylnitrite produced in salted fish can be converted into the carcinogen dimethylnitrosamine in the body. Salted eggs, pickled vegetables, etc. also contain carcinogens and should be eaten as little as possible.
II. Barbecued foods: Such as roasted beef, roasted duck, roasted mutton, roasted goose, roasted suckling pig, roasted mutton skewers, etc., should not be eaten in large quantities because they contain strong carcinogens.
III. Smoked foods: Such as smoked meat, smoked liver, smoked fish, smoked eggs, smoked tofu, etc., contain the carcinogen benzopyrene, and frequent consumption can easily lead to esophageal and stomach cancer.
IV. Fried foods: After being fried until charred, they produce carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. When coffee is burnt, benzopyrene increases 20 times. Fried cakes, stinky tofu, fried taro corners, fried dough sticks, etc., because they are mostly made with reused oil, carcinogens will be produced at high temperatures.
V. Moldy substances: Foods such as rice, wheat, beans, corn, and peanuts are prone to dampness and mold. After being contaminated by mold, they produce the carcinogenic toxin aflatoxin.
VI. Leftover cooked cabbage and pickled vegetables: They will produce nitrite, which is converted into the carcinogenic nitrosamine in the body.
VII. Betel nut: Chewing betel nut is a factor causing oral cancer.
VIII. Reboiled water: Reboiled water contains nitrite, which is converted into the carcinogenic nitrosamine after entering the human body.
