unfortunately, according to new research in Europe these foods may trigger colorectal cancer risk. </span><span title="">The culprit is the N-nitroso substances which are carcinogenic. </span><span

style="font-weight: bold;">White rice and white bread</span><br /></span><span title="">These foods contain little fiber, so into the category of foods with high glycemic index. </span><span title="">Such foods digested and absorbed into the bloodstream very quickly, thus making sugar levels soaring in no time.<br /><br /></span><span title="">This also will make the cell change and ripen
