So what foods dont cause cancer? I keep seeing vegetarians on here comment how meat causes cancer, but what do you guys do to prevent all the other ones?
And how the fuck do they know which food causes cancer when everything does? Who the fuck was the control group?
These are epidemiological studies. The control group is a large sample of the general population and variables are controlled through logistic regression models to find the association of the variable desired. You're right, everything causes cancer. We live so long on average that inevitably some cancer will form. Just don't worry about it and get /fit.

this idiot doesn't know that creatures that breath oxygen also have a chance of contracting any type of cancer. get checked out dude you might have cancer right now
>>36630709
retard, you got that backwards
>Low oxygen levels could drive cancer growth

Never hold your breath if you dont want cancer. This basically confirms swimming is bad for you.

certain foods and supplements can be tumor-suppressive, but you'd have to eat them quite a lot for a very long time (on the order of years) to get an appreciable effect
it's the usual suspects - leafy greens, healthy fats, etc.

This is one of the main reasons I have a hard time trusting most "science" out there.
>>36630858
Probably because you have no idea how a logistic regression works brah. It's not magic. Just take a biostats class.

It's funny how uneducated people talk shit straight out of their ass about things they know very little about. That's /fit I guess.
>>36630858
Read the studies and take well constructed ones as evidence, not proof. That's what they're supposed to be

Mfw muscle growth is actually cancer

49% increase of what? 20%, 0.1, 0.0000001?
