    Everytime I open up a newspaper they've discovered another thing that gives you cancer. I read in the space of two weeks, two different articles in the same paper, one linking vitamin c as way to protect yourself from cancer and then the other article linking too much of it to another type of cancer....

    Arrggggghhhhhhh!!!

    Red meat gives you cancer, salt gives you cancer, dairy gives you cancer, phones give you cancer, cancer gives you cancer... everything gives you cancer!

    I'm guessing they just dont fcuking know what gives you cancer?


    *anyone who takes the piss out of my ranting thread will get cancer* ;)

    And we cant sue meat and cheese and salt to make us suffer. If your thread gives someone cancer chances are that someone here may sue you:P

    It does if you smoke it.

    Is that "newspaper" you're opening the Daily Mail. If so, then yes, everything does give you cancer - http://dailymailoncology.tumblr.com/

    I think people misunderstand when they read about these things.
    I probably have a vague understanding of it myself but I think excess of almost anything will be a contributing factor to increased cancer risk, and heart disease, etc.

    Its the fact that these products, usually processed and laced with crazy ass chemicals that the body does not need increase the risk probably by a miniscule amount.

    Take it in moderation and you'll be grand.

    I am going to ruin your day OP.

    Age is the #1 contributor to getting cancer. The longer you live, the more likely you're going to get cancer.

    If I had a Euro for every time I read about something that gave you cancer, I'd have cancer from the amount of Euro coins I had

    Some things can only give you cancer in the State of California so its best to steer clear of that place

    to be honest i'd say the air we breathe is riddled with chemicals and all sorts that contribute to diseases and cancers and all that so eat what ya want, its roulette you'll get it or you won't

    don't fix it if it ain't broken
