“The way we use our carbohydrates to make our energy; the way we use proteins and amino acids from our diet and other exposures, it was really a very strong relationship with cancer incidence,” said Dr. Suneel Kamath, a gastrointestinal oncologist at Cleveland Clinic and senior author of the research. “It’s really something that’s not been described before in colorectal cancer at all.”
Results show people younger than age 50 with colorectal cancer had lower levels of citrate, compared to older people with colorectal cancer. Citrate is created when the body converts food into energy. Kamath said more research is needed, but there’s enough evidence to suggest it’s a good idea to reduce red meat and sugar in your diet.
