There is a relationship between bad food and cancer. Eating 10 percent more junk food increases the risk of cancer by 12 percent. Junkfood is food with a low nutritional value, but which contains a lot of salt, sugar and unhealthy fats. Think of burgers, fries, sweet snacks such as donuts, soft drinks, biscuits and desserts with a lot of sugar, according to the AD.

The Nutrition Center says that this is an initial study into this relationship and that further research is needed. According to the Nutrition Center, there is a link between eating vegetables, fruit and grains and reducing the risk of cancer.

    Well well well. So, according to the Nutrition Center, this is the first study into the link between (unhealthy) eating and cancer. And the first conclusion they draw themselves is that more research (read: more money) is needed.
    Could it really be that since the Moerman diet, or since the Giving for Life campaign in 1974, in which 13 million Dutch people coughed up no less than 65 million hard-earned guilders for research, no one has ever investigated that connection?
    Then give me my money back and promote Halbe Z. to director of this ridiculous institute.

      Well, and if you read the article itself, it turns out that the research was carried out by Universities in Paris and Sao Paulo and that the Nutrition Center really has nothing to do with it at all.
      It is funny that the researchers have previously classified the food into four categories from mild to seriously harmful. If you already know that in advance, why are you still doing the research?
      Take red meat. I think it has long been established that there is a link between eating a lot of red meat and developing colon cancer. I would then classify that in the category of moderately to seriously harmful food. And damn, guess what? People who eat more red meat get more colorectal cancer than people who don't eat red meat. Hello! News! Shocking results! Unhealthy food is bad! Give us money, give us money, maybe even more unhealthy food is even worse! Spread the word! Please share and give! Pfff…
      Eat well throughout the day and especially enjoy the snacks.

    Just looking at the picture makes me sick to my stomach!

    Is cancer not the number 3 cause of death on the list?
    In addition, there are 149 types of cancer.

    The list that can cause cancer is also huge!

    The best known is smoking and alcohol.
    Every study screens with an outcome that this is also carcinogenic.

    The worst of all is what I ever heard in a song years ago: living will kill you! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYHr8IOdUtw

    But there is one bright spot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAIrfWW65lc
    There is life after death..

    It's not just that you can get cancer or other diseases from all that junk food, but you also gain tremendous size…look here in Thailand…I have in a country where most of them are still slim (because they have the not have money), also seen the fattest - fatter than in the Netherlands - people. Especially young people who fill themselves with liters of soft drinks, miko-cha and spend their free time with their mobile…
    I think even worse than junk food is the lack of exercise.

    OK, salt and sugar are unhealthy. I doubt those fats. And fries are NOT unhealthy. There are already dozens of studies that contradict this.
