My friend Naomi forwarded this to me via email. Very interesting information about the foods we eat!
Just want to share in the Swirl!
1. *Hot dogs*
Because they are high in nitrates, the Cancer Prevention Coalition advises that children eat no more than 12 hot dogs a month. If you can't live without hot dogs, buy those made without sodium nitratea.
2. *Processed meats and bacon*
Also high in the same sodium nitrates found in hotdogs, bacon, and other processed meats raise the risk of heart disease.
The saturated fat in bacon also contributes to cancer.
3. *Doughnuts *
Doughnuts are cancer-causing double trouble. First, they are made with white flour, sugar, and hydrogenated oils, then fried at high temperatures.
Doughnuts may be the worst food you can possibly eat to raise your risk of cancer.
4. *French fries*
Like doughnuts, French fries are made with hydrogenated oils and then fried at high temperatures... They also contain cancer-causing acryl amides which occur during the frying process. They should be called cancer fries, not French fries.
5. *Chips, crackers, and cookies *
All are usually made with white flour and sugar. Even the ones whose labels claim to be free of trans-fats generally contain small amounts of trans-fats.
