Dr. Eric Berg points out that cancer doesn't necessarily occur suddenly, but rather through long-term , chronic exposure to certain foods or substances that damage mitochondria , leading to cellular mutations . The following six types of food are the most common but easily overlooked sources of cancer .

☠️ Six major carcinogenic food categories
1. Alcohol
· Long-term intake can damage mitochondrial function
· Increased risk of liver cancer, breast cancer, etc.
· The key is not occasional drinking, but chronic exposure.
2. Trans fats
· Derived from partially hydrogenated oils (such as margarine and processed snacks ).
· Damages cell membranes and interferes with mitochondrial metabolism
· Even "complete hydrogenation" does not guarantee safety.
3. Charred Meats
· High-temperature grilling produces carcinogens such as HCA and PAH.
· Herbs such as garlic and rosemary can be used to reduce the risk .
· To avoid charring the surface, it is recommended to use low-temperature cooking methods.
4. Sugars and proteins bind at high temperatures ( AGEs )
· This leads to the formation of " advanced glycation end products" (AGEs ).
· Examples: Braised pork ribs, ice cream (egg white + fat heated )
· It can trigger chronic inflammation and damage mitochondria .
5. Processed Meats
· Contains nitrates and nitrites → which can be converted into carcinogens.
· Including sausages, ham, bacon, etc.
· Dr. Berg emphasized that red meat and processed meat should not be confused , and grass-fed red meat is not necessarily harmful.
6. Ultra - processed foods
· Includes: instant noodles, snacks, candy, and processed grains .
· Through multiple chemical processes → lifeless, nutrient-poor, and extremely refined
· Common ingredients include maltodextrin, high-fructose corn syrup, modified starch, and seed oil.
· Labeled as " GRAS " (Generally Recognized As Safe) but without FDA testing .
The relationship between mitochondria and cancer
· Mitochondrial system: Cellular energy factory → Aerobic combustion of fuel
· Cancer cells lose mitochondrial function and instead survive by "fermentation".
· Fermentation metabolism requires no oxygen → cancer cells become "immortal" and continue to proliferate.
Conclusion: Don't be fooled by packaging anymore; true health comes from avoiding chronic toxins.
Hong Kong residents are exposed to processed foods, takeaways, barbecues, and alcohol daily; chronic exposure is a key factor in cancer development . Starting today, a plate of natural food, a glass of additive-free beverage, and a habit of low-temperature cooking will help protect your cells !
Stop believing in what is "generally considered safe." Knowing how to identify sources and avoid processing traps is the key to true health!
