Pancreatic Cancer Projected To Be Second Cancer Killer by 2030, Foods That May Raise Your Risk

Pancreatic cancer is a type of cancer that forms in the tissues of the pancreas, which is a large gland behind the stomach.

Some of the common symptoms of pancreatic cancer are jaundice, pain, and weight loss.

Avoid indulging in red meats such as beef, pork, lamb, veal and mutton.

Charred food like fried and barbecued meats can increase the risk of pancreatic cancer.

Processed or cured foods such as bacon, pepperoni, sausage, prosciutto, hot dog, salami and beef jerky increase the risk of cancer due to chemicals used in preservation and cooking methods.  

Spirits can cause inflammation of the pancreas as well as a risk of developing cirrhosis.
