Yea, if you tried to avoid stuff that caused cancer, you would have to pretty much live like the amish. Many things have had studies that say it can cause all types of stuff. Like soy, aspartame and other fake sugars, ingredients in bleach and other cleaners (I have a friend that avoids them by using a mix she makes with lemon juice, vinegar and tea tree oil), fluoride, etc. etc. and fluoride is in water unless you get non-fluoride water which is hard to find or a machine that takes it out, regular filtration doesn't eliminate it, it's also in most toothpastes. Soy is in most everything we eat too. aspartame is in a lot of stuff also, if it's not then it's usually some other harmful fake sugar by another name unless it's pure cane sugar. High fructose corn syrup is bad also and in a ton of foods. Start reading labels you'll be surprised. I avoid aspartame as much as possible because it causes my high blood pressure issues to come back for some reason, so I avoid that one. So no diet drinks or foods for me as it's usually in those. No sugarless gum, fat free stuff, etc.

I'm also sure that if they looked into it they would try to say all the herbs and supplements we use on this forum could "cause cancer". I'm a cancer survivor, I've been cancer-free for over 8 years now, so don't sweat it too much. I just try to be as healthy as I can be, with still living "normal".
