Common Fridge Food Slashes Cancer Risk 17%
Over the past few months, I’ve highlighted several key reasons for the alarming colon cancer rates among younger people.
One is a disrupted circadian rhythm.
Another is chronic stress.
Addressing these two lifestyle factors can go a long way toward reducing your colon cancer risk.
However, while you’re at it, adding one key nutrient to your diet could lower your risk by another 17 percent…
Researchers analyzed 16 years of medical data on more than 542,000 women, looking for a link between colon cancer risk and 97 different foods and nutrients.
In the end, one nutrient stood head and shoulders above the rest.
Calcium.
For each additional 300 mg of calcium consumed daily, colon cancer risk plummeted 17 percent.
The results confirm how vital calcium is in the fight against this killer. However, this DOESN’T mean you should start taking calcium supplements.
Far too many studies have tied taking calcium to serious heart risks and other health concerns.
Instead, the best way to get more calcium is through your diet.
The 300 mg mentioned in the study is the equivalent of about 1 cup of milk.
But there are plenty of non-dairy calcium-rich foods to choose from as well. These include leafy greens, broccoli, almonds, chia seeds, and seaweed.
