Cancer causing oils: Certain types of cooking oils are increasing the risk of colon cancer in American youth. This has come to light in a study. Anyway, it is said that excessive consumption of oils made from sunflower, canola, corn and grape seeds increases the risk of inflammation in the body. In this study, conclusions have been drawn after a study conducted on 80 patients suffering from colon cancer. The study found that the tumors of these patients had higher levels of bioactive lipids. Such lipids develop from the breakdown of seed oil molecules in the body. These lipids are fatal for the body in two ways. Firstly, they increase gas burning sensation (swelling) in the stomach and secondly, they weaken the body’s ability to fight such tumors.

Although such evidence has not been found yet, it is believed that ultraprocessed food can prove to be more harmful. This is because it contains seed oil, fat, sugar and other chemicals that increase inflammation in the digestive process.

However, the leading cancer and heart disease organizations in the United States have so far said that there is no evidence to prove that moderate consumption of seed oil increases the risk of developing colon cancer or any such tumors. Is established. But apart from this, studies are also coming out in recent times which show that excessive consumption of such edible oil or seed oil increases the risk of inflammation in the body. As a result, the risk of heart diseases and diabetes increases.

The team of University of South Florida has done this new study. It was published in the journal Gut on Tuesday. This conclusion was reached after studying the tumors of about 80 people aged 30-85 years. 90 percent of these cases were found in people whose age was less than 50 years. Half of the patients had stage 3 or 4 cancer. One third had stage two cancer.

According to the study, the average American is consuming about 100 pounds of seed oil per year, a thousand times more than in the 1950s. In America, the practice of seed oil became very popular in the post-World War II era due to advanced technologies in the field of farming.
