Cool it with hot dogs

Along with sugar, look to cut other processed foods, specifically processed meat, which is classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) as a carcinogen. This means hot dogs, ham, bacon, sausage, and some deli meats. Also, avoid any meats that have been smoked or cured, which can lead to the production of cancer-causing chemicals.

The occasional meaty treat is OK—it’s really eating the stuff daily, which can increase the risk of colorectal cancer by 18 percent. ‘Studies have shown that the higher the intake of processed meat, the higher the risk of colorectal cancers and other chronic diseases,’ Kana Wu, MD, PhD, a senior research scientist at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, said on the school’s website.
