Eating Hotdogs Can Cause Cancer?
I caught the tail-end of a conversation on the radio about hotdogs causing cancer in children under 5 years old. I wish that I would have heard the whole thing, but I didn't. Is it safe for pregnant women to eat hotdogs or can it hurt the unborn baby, too?

dear tht is myth and that is spreaded by the vegans that say thgings without any cientific foundation, but the hot dogs meats are treated and it is completly safety meat and does not have any scientif proves that it does cause cancer, otherwise the whole world would be advised to never ever eat hot dgos again. but one thing is right, that meats has spices and some spices are more likely to cause some allergy problems, so yes one or two hotdogs time to time will not hurt your baby.

To have a healthy pregnancy, you need to know what to include in your diet and the foods you can't eat when pregnant. You should avoid foods that might add empty calories without being nutritious. Have a pregnancy diet plan ready so that you can select the best foods from it. You should also read more about diet during pregnancy so that you know the foods to avoid during pregnancy. Hot dogs have been implicated in several studies. (Note: It has also been found that children under the age of five who eat more than 1 hot dog a week may have an increased risk of cancer).

Hotdogs and other processed meat have a great deal of preservatives which when taken in large amounts may possibly harm the body.. cancer may be one of the end results but is not very likely.. cancer is multifactorial. our food intake may greatly affect our body resistance towards cancer.. it is safe to eat hotdogs during pregnancy..but it is more advicable if a pregnant woman cuts down on processed foods.. and opts more on a healthy diet..
