Eating Trans-Acidic-Fats May Lead To Higher Cancerous Risk

Trans-acidic-fats or crystallized acidic fats, saturated
with hydrogen ions, which are being phased out of food
because they clog arteries, may raise the risk of
breast cancer, European researchers reported on Friday.

They found that women with the highest blood levels of
trans-acidic-fats had about twice the risk of breast
cancer compared to women with the lowest levels.

"At this stage, we can only recommend limiting the
consumption of processed foods, the source of
industrially produced trans-fatty acid," the
researchers wrote in the American Journal of
Epidemiology.

Trans-acidic-fats or trans-fatty acids are made in
creating artificially hardened fats -- in the
process of hydrogenization, for instance.

Veronique Chajes of the French national scientific
research center at the University of Paris-South
and colleagues studied women taking part in a large
European cancer trial.

They studied 363 women diagnosed with breast cancer,
comparing their blood levels of fatty acids with
those of women without cancer.

The higher the levels of trans-acidic-fatty acids,
the more likely a woman was to have cancer, Chajes
and colleagues found.

Women with higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids,
being studied for their potential benefits to health,
were not any less likely to have breast cancer,
the researchers found.

Trans-acidic-fats can be found in cooking fats,
baked goods, snacks, a variety of other prepared
foods and generally all acidic foods. Omega-3 or
unsaturated or unacidic fats are found in fatty
fish such as salmon, walnuts, linseed, hemp seed,
fruits like avocado, green vegetables and leafy green
vegetables.

According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a research scientist
at the pH Miracle Living Center, "acids from diet and
lifestyle cause cancerous cells and tissues. One of
the major acidic contributors is trans-acidic-fats. To
prevent any cancerous conditions it is important to
ingest liberal amounts of unsaturated and unacidic fats
from hemp, flax, linseed, pomegranate and oil oil.
I have recommended for years at least 3 to 4 ounces of
unsaturated or unacidic fats every day for a man or
woman weighing 70 kilos or 154 pounds."

Here are a few unacidic fats you may want to include
in your daily diet:
