When eating out or gathering, meat tends to be grilled rather than boiled. I keep looking for the savory taste of intestines and fat. They are high in calories and high in saturated fat. The same goes for processed meats such as ham and sausage. It is a time when our gut health is greatly shaken. I want to be cool with ‘cleansing the intestines’, but it’s not easy. What is the diet to get rid of intestinal waste and lose weight?

◆ Colorectal cancer > The number of gastric cancer patients reversed… my boss is in danger

For over 10 years, stomach cancer has been the number one cancer in Korea (excluding thyroid cancer), but colorectal cancer has recently started to outnumber stomach cancer. According to the National Cancer Registry, as for cancers (all men and women) that occurred in 2020, colorectal cancer (27,877) overtook stomach cancer (26,662). Both are representative cancers that are highly food-related. Until 2019, stomach cancer outnumbered colorectal cancer, but the ranking changed ‘as expected’. Colorectal cancer trend is expected to continue. This is because changes in eating habits are threatening the health of the colon.

◆ Excessive intake of fat, stimulation of the mucous membrane of the large intestine… risk of developing cancer cells

If you grill the meat, some of it will burn. Benzopyrene, a carcinogen, is secreted. Eating meat that has been burnt for a long time, not once or twice, causes problems with the intestinal mucosa. If you consume a lot of saturated fat, the secretion of bile acids that stimulate the mucous membrane of the large intestine increases. Afterwards, it is turned into a carcinogen by intestinal bacteria, and the colon epithelium grows abnormally, increasing the risk of cancer cells growing. You can reduce this risk by doing a bowel cleanse.

◆ Dietary fiber effect in vegetables and fruits… Intestinal mucosal damage – delays aging

If you eat a lot of dietary fiber (fiber), it helps intestinal peristalsis to prevent and relieve constipation. It also has the effect of reducing cholesterol made through other foods. In particular, dietary fiber dilutes the bad contents in the large intestine and promotes the excretion of carcinogens in the intestines. The National Cancer Information Center posts that eating a lot of dietary fiber, which is rich in vegetables and fruits, lowers the possibility of developing colorectal cancer. Its antioxidant effect also helps reduce damage to the intestinal mucosa.

◆ Low calorie and long lasting satiety … also help with weight loss

Vegetables are low in calories and high in fiber, which keeps you feeling full, so you can reduce your intake of other foods. If you eat before meals, you can consume less rice or other foods. Fruits are also high in dietary fiber, except for some. Peaches (glycemic index 41), apples (36), and plums (34) are low glycemic index foods that raise blood sugar slowly. In particular, pectin, which is abundant in apples, bananas, tangerines, barley, oats, kidney beans, etc., reduces the contact time of carcinogens with the intestinal mucosa, helping to prevent colon cancer. If you move your body, such as walking after a meal, you can see the effect of intestinal exercise.
