WHY NOT BE HEALTHY –
Oct. 10, 2022 – Medical Journal, men who frequently eat ultra-processed foods are at a 29 percent increased risk of developing colorectal cancer, compared with men who eat this type of food less frequently.
To determine how diet influenced colorectal cancer risk, the researchers behind the study—a group of scientists from Harvard University and Tufts University—reviewed questionnaire responses from over 200,000 individuals. The data were collected every four years over the course of 25 years, giving insights into the subjects’ long-term dietary habits and food frequency patterns. The team then classified those responses into quintiles, and ranked them from lowest consumption of ultra-processed foods to the highest. They found that men in the highest quintile were at highest risk of developing colorectal cancer.
