Researchers have identified another unique property of the Mediterranean diet and it consists in the fact that it protects against cancer of the colon.
Statistics of cancer every year becoming more unfavourable. Therefore, scientists are trying to find new means of prevention and treatment of all types of cancer. This time it became known that the Mediterranean diet can protect humanity from colorectal cancer or simply cancer of the colon.
Scientists conducted a global study involving people aged 40 to 70 years (risk group before colon cancer). The study took place in the form of a survey where participants answered several questions concerning their food preferences. So that portion of the people who tended to eat according to the principles of the Mediterranean diet, was almost outside risk of colorectal cancer, as evidenced by their tests.
Researchers still failed, which of the foods allowed on the Mediterranean diet, has potent anticancer properties, therefore, they are recommended as prevention is sometimes to use all the products that are part of this diet, namely:
– fish and seafood;
– chicken, rabbit, Turkey;
– chicken eggs;
– hard cheeses;
– natural yogurt with no additives;
– red wine;
– vegetables and fruits;
– olive oil and nuts.
It is desirable to use the maximum amount of fish and fruits and all other products of the Mediterranean diet can be alternated. As for red wine, the scientists are not advised to drink it daily, to maintain health will be just 1-2 times a week, one glass.
In order to achieve maximum results and really provide your body particularly the colon protection against malignant tumors, a person must lead an active lifestyle and eat right. If you eat products offered on the Mediterranean diet and to wash them down with sweet soda, and then eat tootsie rolls with a stuffing, the use of diet there will be no and even more, this food will not protect you from colorectal cancer.
Doctors suggest with all seriousness to my own diet and at least every two years to undergo a procedure called colonoscopy, which the doctor will determine if any irregularities or growths in the colon.
