In recent years, the detection rate of nodules has been relatively high. Many people will find nodules during the physical examination, thinking that they have cancer. In fact, more than 90% of the nodules found during the physical examination are benign . As long as you follow the doctor's advice regularly, there is generally no problem.
However, even so, once the nodule is found, it cannot be dropped. The nodule can appear in various parts of the body. The nodules in different parts will have different effects. If the nodule has a special nature, is large in size, and has irregular edges, the risk is also greater. . Everyone should be highly vigilant and pay attention to their daily diet.
Some elderly people say that they cannot eat beef after suffering from nodules. Beef is a hair product, and There was also a saying on the Internet that beef is a 2a carcinogen. . Many people think that eating beef frequently will accelerate the growth of nodules. Beef is a catalyst for nodules. Can you eat beef?

Beef is a "nodal catalyst"?
In normal times, we often talk about hair products, but many people do not understand what the hair products are. In fact, there is no saying that the hair products are produced in Western medicine. In the eyes of traditional Chinese medicine, foods that can cause the disease to worsen or recur old diseases are called hair products.
In fact, hair products do not have a specific type of food, and the hair products corresponding to different diseases are also different, so we cannot equate a certain food with hair products in .
The statement that beef can cause nodules and cancer is incorrect. In fact, there are many factors that affect nodules, but the most important one is hormones, so you should eat less hormone foods in daily life.

Why has beef become the "target" in recent years?
2015 The International Cancer Institute under the WHO lists red meat including beef, sheep, pig and other meat as a Class 2A carcinogen. Why does have such a division? In fact, red meat does not contain carcinogens, but there are still some potential carcinogenic ingredients, mainly including these three:
1, heme
heme is a verified potential carcinogenic component of red meat. A paper published by the University of Copenhagen Research Group in the " Proceedings of the American Academy of Sciences " pointed out that mice fed will have abnormal hyperplasia of epithelial tissue in the small intestine , and other mice taking antibiotic will not have this situation.
Therefore, researchers say that heme will stimulate the intestinal mucosa to induce inflammation , and at the same time it will upregulate oncogenes and downregulate tumor suppressor genes, thereby inducing cancer.
2, L-carnitine
L-carnitine is also a proven potential carcinogenic component. A Chinese scientist at Case Western Reserve University in the United States published a paper published in the "Genomics of the European Medical Center" that the N-trimethylamine produced by the conversion of L-carnitine from intestinal bacteria can induce colorectal cancer.
3, dermatinin sulfate, chondroitin sulfate
These two substances are more secret carcinogenic factors contained in meat. The sulfate esters they contain will promote the growth of sulfate lipase secretion bacteria, and will also digest the mucus protein of the intestinal mucosa, allowing enteric bacteria to leak into the blood and induce chronic inflammation throughout the body, which may induce tumor-like hyperplasia. However, this is only a preliminary judgment and more research is needed to support it.
So does this mean that the red meat of beef causes cancer? Of course not. Everyone should understand that beef is listed as a Class 2a carcinogen, which means it clearly has carcinogenic effects in animals, and its carcinogenicity to humans has not yet been clarified.
National Senior public nutritionist Peng Xinrui said that if can control the intake of beef within 50 grams per day, and try to stir-fry or boil as much as possible, it will not pose any threat to the body, but will bring some benefits to the body.
beef contains vitamin B6, can enhance the body's resistance and immunity , promote the metabolism and synthesis of protein . The rich potassium elements and proteins in beef can inhibit protein synthesis and promote the production of growth hormone . The content of sarcosine in beef is also far more than that of other foods, which can increase muscle and strengthen strength.

Reminder: If you don’t want the nodule to deteriorate, you should stay away from these 4 foods
1, High-fat foods
In fact, what you should really avoid is various high-fat foods, such as fried chicken, animal offal, animal fat, etc. These high-fat foods will cause fat accumulation in the body and cause the three-high-fat , which will also promote the further deterioration of the nodule.
2 and high estrogen foods
Foods with relatively high estrogen content should be eaten as little as possible in daily life, especially for patients with breast nodules . If consumes a large amount of estrogen-containing foods, it will lead to the continuous development of the nodules, such as royal jelly , etc.
3, high iodine food
Although iodine is one of the indispensable elements in our body, we only need to meet normal needs and do not need additional iodine supplements. Moreover, for patients with thyroid nodules , should try to avoid some high iodine foods, such as kelp, seaweed, etc., to avoid excessive growth of nodules.
4, Spicy food
In normal times, we should stay away from spicy food. Some people have very heavy tastes and must add chili when cooking, but spicy foods are very irritating to the body. can easily accelerate the development of inflammation, especially those with nodules who eat too spicy foods can easily lead to excessive growth of nodules.
After you find nodules in your body during the physical examination, don’t worry too much, just follow the advice of professional doctors to follow up and treat. Never blindly believe in folk remedies because of fear, otherwise it will easily lead to adverse effects.
