Researchers Link Food Additive to Lung Cancer
January 6th, 2009
Researchers say it appears that a food additive found in many processed foods may accelerate lung cancer growth, and increase the food additives in people predisposed to the disease.
Evidence is accumulating that excessive intake of food additives known as inorganic phosphates, which are put into some meats, cheeses and bakery products to keep them moist, may play a significant role in the aggressiveness and development of lung cancer.
