Processed meats and bacon: These meats almost always contain the same sodium nitrite found in hot dogs. You can find some without nitrites, but you'll have to look for them in natural grocers or health food stores. bacon is also high in saturated fat, which contributes to the risk of cancers, including breast cancer. Limiting your consumption of processed meats and saturated fats also benefits the heart.
Doughnuts: Doughnuts contain hydrogenated oils, white flour, sugar, and acrylamides. Essentially, they're one of the worst cancer foods you can possibly eat. |

Bacon
Most bacon and sausage are processed meat products made with sodium nitrite (like the hot dogs, above) and contaminated with various chemicals lodged in the animal fats. Conventionally-raised beef, pork and chicken products are, in my opinion, extremely toxic to the human body and contribute to colon cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer and many other diseases and disorders. If you make meat for your children, shop for 100% organic, free-range, antibiotic-free meats that have no nitrites or nitrates.

Let's start with the Canadian bacon. Made with sodium nitrite, Canadian bacon is a processed meat that's directly linked to increased risks of pancreatic cancer, colon cancer, leukemia and other cancers. The increased risk of heart disease and cancer from eating processed meats is so large that the World Cancer Research Fund recently made a bold announcement and warned that processed meats should be avoided by everyone. There is no safe level of consumption of processed meats, the WCRF says.
Of course, this Health Magazine article didn't say these foods wouldn't give you cancer. |

And I say, okay, let's take a look at your bacon cheeseburger here and find out what diseases you're going to get from eating that type of food.
Chances are, you're probably already suffering from several of these diseases. You've got the sodium nitrite in the bacon -- that's going to cause colorectal cancer. You've got the saturated animal fats in the bacon and in the burger itself -- that's going to promote heart disease and atherosclerosis. |
| But every once in a while, someone will volunteer a question while they're chewing on a bacon cheeseburger. They'll ask me, "Well, what do you think about this?" When people ask, I feel obliged to tell them the truth. And I say, okay, let's take a look at your bacon cheeseburger here and find out what diseases you're going to get from eating that type of food.

I recently purchased some potato salad from their deli and was later horrified to find myself chewing on a piece of bacon. Who puts bacon in the potato salad sold at a "healthy" grocery store anyway? There must have been some sort of anti-vegetarian food pervert hanging out behind the deli, tossing random slices of meat into the various dishes, just waiting for vegetarian-minded customers like me to come along and cough up a bite.
Needless to say, I ended up throwing away four dollars worth of Whole Foods potato salad. |

About a hundred years before the Revolutionary War there was a short-lived revolt called Bacon's Rebellion. It was defeated pretty quickly, but not without some hiccups along the way. When British soldiers were sent to Jamestown to put down the rebellion, they were secretly (or accidentally) drugged with jimsonweed in their salad. |

I have a question for all the red meat eaters out there -- people who eat steak, sausage, bacon and hamburgers: Why don't you eat cow's brain or pig's brain? Most people will gladly eat the ribs of a cow, or the rump ("rump roast" anyone?). They'll eat the legs and wings of a chicken, but they won't eat the brains of these animals. Why is that?
I asked a few meat eaters this question, and they said, "It would be gross to eat the brains." I find that very curious. |

| The diet we have recommended therefore excludes the consumption of high-fat meats such as pork sausage, spare ribs, bologna, liverwurst, pork, bacon, ham, frankfurters, and bratwurst, as well as commercial salad dressings, french fries, potato chips, butter, margarine, lard, the shortening in most cookies and pastries, and cream.
Simple carbohydrates. Excessive consumption of refined foods (i.e., the white group) such as sugar, white flour, and white rice has been found to raise blood sugar levels and stimulate insulin release, which then negatively impacts hormone balance. |

For example, food additives called nitrites, found in processed meats such as bacon and bologna, are converted in the body to potent carcinogens called nitrosamines. Other dietary mutagens include anatoxin (a natural substance produced by a mold that forms on improperly stored peanuts); heavy metals, such as lead; polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs); and pesticides, such as malathion and DDT. Alcohol does not initiate cancer, but it promotes the growth of a pre-existing abnormal cell. |

In Southern cooking, they're often cooked with bacon or salt pork, but they don't have to be; they're often served with beans, especially black-eyed peas (also optional). Personally, I think they're outstanding with just some sweet butter and sea salt.
Collards are members of the family of cruciferous vegetables and provide valuable cancer-fighting phytochemicals. One cup of collards provides almost the same amount of calcium as 8 ounces of milk, and 5 whopping g of fiber in the bargain. |

| Unopened processed meats, such as bacon, hot dogs and luncheon meats, should be used within two weeks of the sell-by date.
•Unopened canned meats, such as tuna and sardines, will keep for approximately two years beyond the sell-by date.
•"Best if used by" and "use by" dates refer to the point after which peak quality—flavor or texture—begins to decline. These are not safety or purchase dates.
Caution: Shelf life depends on the handling and storage conditions. Fresh perishable foods should be kept at 38°F to 40°F for maximum safety and quality. |
| Many cheeses (such as American, cheddar, blue and Parmesan), cured meats (such as salami, bacon and pepperoni), liver, red wine and beer contain tyramine. It's a chemical compound that can cause a potentially fatal rise in blood pressure in people who take older-generation antidepressants called monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs).
People who take MAOIs, such as phenelzine (Nardil) and procarbazine (Matulane), should never eat foods that contain tyramine. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for a complete list of foods that contain it.

I like to call it the "healthy Atkins diet"—in contrast to the less-healthy original—so don't expect to see me recommending that you eat tons of butter and bacon. I have to hasten to say that I have not done any controlled studies on the efficacy of the Natelson diet, but my patients do lose weight on this diet, and then find it easier to do the walking exercises I recommended earlier—as well as feel better about themselves.
So please try this diet for three weeks. Why do I ask for three weeks instead of the six I require so much of the time? |

The goal of this new knowledge, as well as its epistemology, was fundamentally different: instead of Christian stewardship of nature, bacon famously declared 'I come in very truth leading to you nature with all her children to bind her to your service and make her your slave.'1
The eighteenth-century Enlightenment drew heavily on this kind of 'natural philosophy' and its emphasis on a 'mechanical' universe (one operating according to knowable rules rather than to achieve unknowable ends, to slightly oversimplify the idea of Aristotelian 'final causes') as an alternative to theology. |

Kids who eat the most ham, bacon, and sausage have three times the risk of lymphoma. þKids who eat ground meat once a week have twice the risk of acute lymphocytic leukemia compared with those who eat none; eating two or more hamburgers weekly triples the risk.
Fortunately, vegetarian alternatives to these standard components of the American diet are now widely available, and many of them actually taste quite good. Consumers can find soy hot dogs, soy sausage, soy bacon, and even soy pastrami at their local health food store as well as in many mainstream grocery stores. |

PHASE 1, SERVES 4
Unfortunately, most "comfort food" serves your taste buds but not your genes. In this recipe, high-protein soybeans substitute for beans with a high sugar content, and finely shredded cauliflower stands in for white rice. |
| Make It a Meal: For Phase 1, after blending the soup, add 1 cup chopped Canadian bacon or smoked ham and heat. Tastes like the classic!
PHASES 2-3 þSubstitute water or vegetable stock for chicken stock. þSubstitute 1/2 avocado for cottage cheese. þReduce the amount of edamame.

The name of this section refers to the fact that the recipes I've adapted, which use shirataki noodles, will fool you into thinking you're eating pasta. My wife, Penny, who cringed at every phony pasta I tried to pass off on her, can't wait for the next new shirataki noodle dish I've come up with. |
| VARIATIONS þAdd 1 cup chopped Canadian bacon, deli ham, or prosciutto to the soup and simmer for a few minutes before serving. þAdd 1 cup shredded grilled chicken and 1/4 teaspoon Tabasco or other hot sauce, and return to a simmer for a few minutes before serving. þUse 1/2 bunch broccoli rabe, a more bitter form of broccoli, or 1 bunch kale or collard greens in place of half the broccoli.
PHASES 2-3
You have several options to make this soup suitable for later phases: þReduce or eliminate the edamame and/or cheese. þReduce or replace chicken stock with vegetable stock or water. |
