Canned Food

Although the food itself may be healthy, like tuna and salmon, the can it comes in could make it one of the few cancer-causing foods because many cans are lined with bisphenol. It is a preservative that has been shown to be carcinogenic in animals, explains a study by Dr. Anton Bilchik, professor of surgery and chief of gastrointestinal research at the John Wayne Cancer Institute at Providence Saint John’s Health Center in Santa Monica, California. Bisphenol (BPA) is linked to breast and prostate cancer. However, BPA free cans are increasing now that the study was made public. Fresh is always better than canned food, but some of us prefer the simple, no need to cook canned food, or at most fried in a pan with veggies and other additions. Still, you can enjoy your canned goods without having the fear of getting cancer. Besides, you can’t really predict the way it will affect you, there is really no standard.
