      Unfortunately we don’t know exactly how and why people get cancer, although diet is thought to have a significant part in stomach and bowel cancer. So don’t eat too many processed foods!

      I would say too much of any food (inc drinks, fizzy and alcoholic) is bad for you, that’s why it’s important to have a varied healthy diet (with the occasional treat!)

      there are many studies which show that a particular food causes cancer but then there are always other studies which exactly show the opposite. At this moment there is no conclusive evidence what food or what amount of a particular food can cause cancer.
