The National Health Service of the Ministry of Health and Welfare announced the latestcancerThe registration report reveals that every 4 minutes and 19 seconds, one person is diagnosed with cancer, and “colorectal cancer“Once again topped the list of top ten cancers, ranking first for 15 consecutive years. March 23, Tianxin DachangrectumChen Weiyou, the director of the surgical clinic, posted on his Facebook page “the large intestineDr. Chen Weiyou, Physician of Rectal Surgery, stated that colorectal cancer anddietThe correlation is high, and it is recommended that people who want to stay away from colorectal cancer adjust 3 eating habits!
Colorectal Cancer and Its Symptoms
According to the reports of “Liberty Times” and “Doctor Hello”, colorectal cancer is the first among the top 10 cancers in Taiwan. After the positive screening, after colonoscopy, an average of 1 out of 2 people was found to have polyps. 1 in 20 people develops cancer.
As for the colorectal cancer or colorectal cancer that people often say, it is actually a general term. In medicine, it is generally called colorectal cancer. However, colorectal cancer actually refers to two types of colon cancer and rectal cancer, but the reason why they are collectively referred to as colorectal cancer is mainly because rectal cancer and colon cancer share many common features.
Colorectal cancer usually arises from cancerous changes in otherwise benign polyps, or adenomatous polyps. In other words, the occurrence of colorectal cancer is generally the malignant evolution of colorectal polyps after many years.
The chances of curing early colorectal cancer are quite high, but there are no observable symptoms in the early stage of colorectal cancer. As for the symptoms of colorectal cancer, they will vary with the size of the cancer cells and the part of the body where they grow. Symptoms of colorectal cancer include: Abdominal pain, swelling or cramping, irregular bowel movements, gas during bowel movements, or strange sensations in the rectum, pain and hard lumps in the rectum or anus, alternating diarrhea and constipation, black or dark stools Dark or blood-red color, anemia, intestinal blockage, sudden weight loss, weakness, unusual tiredness, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, jaundice. If in doubt, the public is advised to consult a professional physician.
Excessive intake of 3 kinds of food increases the risk of colorectal cancer
At the beginning of his post, Chen Weiyou mentioned that the first generation of the big appetite champion Sugawara, who had won the “Full Firepower Big Eater” program three times, was only about 8 months from the announcement of his illness to his death. Chen Weiyou said that the first generation of Sugawara often challenged to eat a large amount of meat or dishes containing high fat such as steak and tonkatsu bowl within a limited time, so as to bury the hidden worry of colorectal cancer.
Chen Weiyou emphasized that colorectal cancer has a high correlation with diet. Excessive intake of the following 3 foods on weekdays will increase the risk of colorectal cancer.
1. High-fat food
When excess fat enters the body, some bile acids will be converted into carcinogens by bacteria in the large intestine. (Image source: Adobe Stock)
When excess fat enters the body, the gallbladder secretes more bile, which enters the duodenum through the bile duct to absorb and emulsify fat. During the process, some bile acids will be converted into carcinogens by bacteria in the large intestine.
2. Processed food
During the manufacturing process of processed food, nitrates and nitrites are often added to inhibit botulism contamination. Eating large amounts can damage the gastric mucosa and increase the risk of colorectal cancer.
3. Alcohol
Alcohol is mainly metabolized by the liver, but a small amount of alcohol is metabolized by the lower digestive tract. Gut cells combine gut bacteria to metabolize small amounts of alcohol into acetaldehyde. However, the activity of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase in the gastrointestinal mucosa is poor, and it is difficult to completely metabolize the highly toxic acetaldehyde, which in turn allows acetaldehyde to accumulate in the intestinal mucosa, destroying the cell tissue of the large intestine and increasing the risk of cancer.

Adjust 3 eating habits to prevent colorectal cancer
Chen Weiyou said that most people don’t have the appetite of a big eater, but with the Westernization of diet, they will develop eating habits of “no meat, no pleasure” and “no drunk, no return”. This is the reason why more and more people suffer from colorectal cancer one. It is suggested that if you want to prevent colorectal cancer on weekdays, you can start by adjusting 3 eating habits.
1. Chew slowly
This action helps to turn the food into fine chyme, which is convenient for the stomach and intestines to digest, and can reduce the chance of food scratching the intestinal wall and mucous membrane. It is recommended to chew each bite at least 15-20 times when eating, so that the food becomes smaller before swallowing.
2. Increase fiber intake
Many whole-grain, vegetable foods contain dietary fiber, which increases gut bacteria that ferment resistant starches into short-chain fatty acids. Short-chain fatty acids can regulate cellular immunity, reduce inflammation, inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells, and maintain intestinal health.
3. Supplement calcium
Calcium can combine with bile acid and free fatty acid in the intestine to reduce carcinogens. If you have the habit of eating meat on weekdays, it is recommended to give priority to supplementing calcium from beans, nuts, and vegetables, so as to avoid eating more meat in order to supplement calcium.
Finally, Chen Weiyou reminded that the early symptoms of colorectal cancer are not obvious. In addition to adjusting daily eating habits, it is recommended to do fecal occult blood tests and colonoscopy regularly to detect polyps and other lesions early and effectively prevent them.
