Your Meal Deal Might Be Raising Your Risk Of Lung Cancer, Study Warns

Eating ultra-processed food (UPFs) has already been linked to 32 harmful effects to health, including a raised risk of type 2 diabetes, heart disease and early death.

Now, another study has linked a higher intake of ultra-processed food to an increased risk of lung cancer.

Lung cancer is the most common cancer in the world. It’s the third most common cancer in the UK, with around 49,000 people diagnosed each year.

Previous research has noted a “significant association” between intake of UPF and the risk of several cancers, including colorectal, breast and pancreatic cancer.

Here’s what you need to know about the latest study.

First up, what is ultra-processed food?

Ultra-processed food typically undergoes multiple processing steps and contains long lists of additives and preservatives. It’s often ready-to-eat or heat.

Examples include ham, mass-produced bread, cereal, crisps and biscuits.

It’s thought more than half of the typical British daily diet is made up of ultra-processed food. But not all of these foods are terrible news – yoghurt and high-fibre cereals, for instance, can form a part of a healthy diet.

There is however a clear link emerging between negative health outcomes and diets high in UPF.

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) noted “we still don’t know whether it is because these foods are unhealthy because of how they are made, or if it’s because a large majority of processed foods are high in calories, saturated fat, salt and sugar”.

UPF intake also increases the risk of weight gain, overweight and obesity, which is the second biggest cause of cancer in the UK.

As high consumption has already been linked to a heightened risk of several health conditions, researchers wanted to know if this might also include lung cancer.

What did the new lung cancer study find?

Researchers used data from the US Prostate, Lung, Colorectal and Ovarian (PLCO) Cancer Screening Trials, involving 155,000 participants aged 55–74.

Cancer diagnoses were tracked until the end of 2009 and cancer deaths until the end of 2018.

Some 101,732 people (50,187 men and 51,545 women; average age 62) who completed a Food Frequency questionnaire on their dietary habits on entry to the trials were included in the study.

Foods were categorised as: unprocessed or minimally-processed; containing processed culinary ingredients; processed; and ultra-processed.

The three types of UPF that featured the most were lunch meat (11%), diet or caffeinated soft drinks (just over 7%) and decaffeinated soft drinks (nearly 7%).

Over a period of 12 years, 1,706 new cases of lung cancer were diagnosed, including 1,473 (86%) cases of non-small cell lung cancer and 233 (14%) of small cell lung cancer.

After accounting for factors including smoking and overall diet quality, researchers discovered participants who ate a diet high in UPF were 41% more likely to be diagnosed with lung cancer than those who ate the least UPF.

Specifically, they were 37% more likely to be diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer and 44% more likely to be diagnosed with small cell lung cancer. The findings were shared in the respiratory journal, Thorax.

The study has major limitations

The study is observational, so no firm conclusions can be drawn about cause and effect.

The researchers also acknowledged they weren’t able to factor in smoking intensity (worth noting given smoking is the main cause of lung cancer) and dietary information was collected once, so couldn’t account for changes over time.

In response to the study, Professor Sam Hare, consultant chest radiologist at the Royal Free London NHS Trust, said: “A quarter of lung cancer cases occur in non-smokers so we do need research exploring whether other factors are associated with lung cancer. We also know immunity is linked to cancer biology so it is a good idea to do research into factors like diet.”

Yet he said more work is needed to establish direct causation between UPFs and lung cancer.

“Crucially, whilst the study does make some adjustments for smoking status, the amount of smoking is not factored in, which is known to be directly related to lung cancer development,” he said.

“Dietary habits also change considerably over the course of such long term studies. As such, it is difficult to directly conclude that lung cancer is related to the level of UPF consumption alone given it was only declared at the start of the study.”

Professor Tom Sanders, an expert in nutrition at King’s College London, also noted the smoking link, and added: “Unhealthy diets often go hand in hand with smoking habit and low socioeconomic status. But there appears to be no plausible mechanism to explain why ultra-processed food should affect risk of lung cancer.”

Should you cut out UPFs?

The study’s researchers suggested limiting consumption of ultra-processed food may help curb the global toll of lung cancer.

Supermarkets are home to thousands of UPF products, which can make it really hard to know where to turn during your weekly food shop. Often, these are the most affordable products, too.

The British Heart Foundation previously advised: “Instead of trying to completely cut out these foods, think about the balance in your diet.

“Make sure that there are minimally processed foods in there too – eat fruit and vegetables with your meals and drink water instead of sugary drinks – and try to fit in time over the week for home cooking.”

Whole grains, fruit, and vegetables could help protect against cancer, so it’s certainly worth trying to add more of these to your trolley if you can.

Starmer Finally Announces Plan To Formally Recognise Palestinian State In September Unless Israel Acts

Keir Starmer has finally outlined a plan for the UK to formally recognise a Palestinian state this autumn.

A government readout from the prime minister’s meeting with his cabinet said Starmer plans to “recognise the state of Palestine in September” before the UN’s General Assembly.

However, the Downing Street release clarified this would not happen if “the Israeli government takes substantive steps to end the appalling situation in Gaza, reaches a ceasefire, makes clear there will be no annexation in the West Bank, and commits to a long-term peace process that delivers a Two State Solution.”

The prime minister said neither party will get a veto over whether he decides to recognise Palestine as a state in September.

He also “reiterated that there is no equivalence between Israel and Hamas and that our demands on Hamas remain, that they must release all the hostages, sign up to a ceasefire, accept that they will play no role in the government of Gaza, and disarm.”

It means the UK will become the 148th country to either formally recognise Palestine – or announce its intentions to do so – unless Israel takes action on Gaza.

The decision was announced after the prime minister called his cabinet ministers back to Westminster in the middle of their summer recess to discuss the growing concerns about starvation in Gaza.

The worsening humanitarian crisis in the Palestinian territory already pushed Starmer’s ally, French president Emmanuel Macron, to announce his own plan to recognise the Palestinian state this autumn.

More than 250 MPs – including some in Labour – have also signed a letter calling on Starmer to follow Macron’s lead.

According to some reports, up to seven cabinet ministers are doing the same.

But the prime minister has, until now, resisted. Ministers have told the press it is a matter of “when, not if” the UK recognises Palestine as a state, but they have refused to offer a clear timeline.

However, Starmer did get Donald Trump’s stamp of approval on Monday to recognise Palestine on Monday.

The US president said: “I’m not going to take a position, I don’t mind him [Starmer] taking a position. I’m looking for getting people fed right now.”

In the readout, the prime minister told his colleagues now was the time to recognise Palestine.

He said: “The increasingly intolerable situation in Gaza and the diminishing prospect of a peace process towards a two state solution, now was the right time to move this position forward.”

Campaigners and charities around the world have repeatedly raised the alarm in recent weeks that mass starvation is taking place in Gaza right now.

There are hopes that by recognising Palestine, there will be more pressure on Israel to end its military offensive and let more aid into the territory.

However, it remains to be seen just how much of an impact this will have on Israel.

The country still has the support of its most powerful ally, the States, although Trump has raised concerns about mass starvation.

Israel has been attacking Gaza since October 7, 2023.

According to the local, Hamas-run health ministry, more than 60,000 Palestinians have been killed in the 22 months since the war began.

While tensions between Palestinians and Israelis were already high, they escalated after Hamas militants killed 1,200 people on Israeli soil and took a further 250 hostage.

Some of those captives have been released but 50 remain in Hamas’s hands.

Is It Accurate To Say Corbyn’s Group Is Now The Biggest Political Party In The UK?

Supporters of Jeremy Corbyn’s new left-wing group have repeatedly claimed that it is now the largest political party in the UK.

As proof, they have enthusiastically pointed to the 500,000 people who have signed up to the group since the Islington North MP announced the party last week.

That is, by any means, a staggering number – but it’s worth remembering one key thing: these are free sign-ups, not paid members.

While the yourparty.uk website does have a page for donations, the homepage promises to “update you on news, activities and ways to get involved” as long as you provide your name, email, phone number and postcode.

Nowhere in the terms and conditions does it say this now means you are a member of the new party.

The group, which is less than a week old, does not appear to have a system set up to deal with membership yet.

But, 500,000 sign-ups undoubtedly suggests a huge amount of interest in the group, even if it does not have an official name yet.

That number also eclipses the number of members who pay to be part of the other main political parties in Westminster.

Labour, for instance, had an estimated 309,000 members as of February this year, according to LabourList.

The standard rate to be a Labour leader is around £5.88 per month.

There are also around 131,00 Tory members, according to the Spectator, and they pay roughly £3.50 a month.

Reform UK charges just over £2 a month but does have different membership options available. The party claims to have 309,000 members.

Meanwhile, the Liberal Democrats say they have more than 90,000 members, with the annual fee starting at £15 per year (£1.25 per month).

Novara Media reported that the Green Party has an estimated 65,000 members, with the standard rate of membership costing £5 per month.

However, despite this clear difference between his sign-ups and other party membership, many of Corbyn’s backers have proudly proclaimed the unnamed party to be the largest one in the country already…
