CANCERCAUSING
FOODS:
It Is the Inside What
Matters
"We make a living by what
we get, but we make a life by
what we give.”
-Winston Churchill
There was a man who
made a living selling
balloons at a fair. He
had all colors of
balloons, including red,
yellow, blue, and green.
Whenever business was
slow, he would release a
helium-filled
balloon
into the air and when
the children saw it go
up,
they all wanted to buy
one. They would come
up to him, buy a
balloon, and his sales
would go up again. He
continued this process
all day. One day, he felt
someone tugging at his
jacket. He turned around
and saw a little boy who
asked,
"If you release a black
balloon, would that also
fly?"
Moved by the boy's
concern, the man
replied with empathy,
"Son, it is not the color
of the balloon, it is
what is inside that
makes it go up."
Is Reading In Our Blood?
1. Hot Dogs: They are
high in nitrates. Children
should not eat more. If
you can't live without hot
dogs, buy those made
without sodium nitrate.
2. Processed Meats:
High amount of sodium
nitrates is found in hot
dogs, bacon, and other
processed meats. They
raise the risk of heart
disease. The saturated
fat can cause cancer.
-Tasneem Ataullah
Reading habits differ even within the
same family. While I am an avid
reader of books ranging from fictions
to volumes of novels and presently
ideological books, my sister dreads
even the basic of these.
And this proves, reading is a habit
which is to be inculcated within and
carries no misconception of genes or
hereditary lineage, provided someone
is trained from the earlier days. As this
inclination varies from person to
another, so does its consequence.
It would be utter foolishness to
compare a well-read person to the
opposite. Undoubtedly there remains
no comparison between a student or an
individual who entertains good
command on language and knowledge,
from that of those who don’t. And the
storehouse of this well-being is
compiled in the shape of books.
Families and communities which
nurture the habit of reading
among their youngsters flourish
by time; An adult in the Middle
East reads on an average a
quarter of a page a year
compared to an American adult
who reads around 11 books, or a
British adult, who reads about 7.
The average Middle Eastern
child reads only “six minutes” a
yea r in comparison to Western
children who average around
12,000 minutes a year!
Confucius states,
“No matter how busy you may
think you are, you must find
time for reading, or surrender
yourself
to
self-chosen
ignorance.”

3. Doughnuts:
Doughnuts are made
with white flour, sugar,
and hydrogenated oils,
then
fried
at
high
temperatures.
Doughnuts are the worst
food to raise the risk of
cancer.
4. French Fries: Like
doughnuts, French fries
are
made
with
hydrogenated oils and
fried
at
high
temperatures. They also
contain cancer-causing
acryl amides during the
frying process. They are
Cancer Fries, not French
Fries.
5. Chips, Crackers, and
Cookies:
These
are
made with white flour
and sugar.
Even the
ones whose labels claim
to be free of trans-fats
generally contain transfats.
