Keep Insulin in Check to Prevent Colon Cancer
Archives: Diet and Nutrition | Quality of Life
If you’re concerned about colon cancer, you’ve got another good reason to keep your blood sugar in check.
A recent study published in Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention found a significant relationship between c-peptide, an indicator of insulin secretion, and the risk of colorectal adenoma, the main precursor to colorectal cancer.
The good news is that you can help reduce c-peptide in your system. Just make sure you choose low-glycemic-index foods like wild fish, organic meats, season-fresh veggies, and antioxidant-rich beans that are full of cancer-fighting nutrients and naturally keep blood sugar levels stable.
[Ed. Note: Keeping your insulin in check won't just help prevent colon cancer. It can stave off diabetes, weight gain, and a host of other health problems.
