Learn More »We have known for years that healthy, high-fiber foods — especially those with anti-inflammatory properties — can promote wellness and reduce your colon cancer risk. But now we know that processed foods that cause inflammation in the body can increase your colon cancer risk. This means that eliminating foods that are bad for you is just as important as adding foods that are good for you, says Cathy Clark-Reyes, a registered dietitian and certified diabetes educator with Baptist Health Primary Care. Released just in time for National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month, combined data from two studies revealed that people whose diets consisted of high levels of inflammatory foods were 37 percent more likely to develop colon cancer and 70 percent more likely to develop rectal cancer, compared with people who had the lowest inflammation diet score. This is not the first time that chronic inflammation has been linked to cancer. It also has been associated with diabetes, lung health, bone health, depression and heart disease. Inflammation is a protective response in your body. However, chronic inflammation due to a poor diet or extreme stress is not healthy. These studies linked cancer-related inflammation to foods such as processed meats, grain-fed red meat, refined flour and sugary foods and drinks.
