A long-term study spanning two decades has revealed that vegetables, fruits, and nuts are more beneficial for men than for women.
Men who eat more dry fruits, vegetables, and pulses are less likely to develop colon cancer.
Interestingly, bowel cancer affects men more than women, and it is generally believed that men's dietary habits predispose them to the disease.
In order to find out the same thing, American experts conducted research on about 80,000 men and more than 93,000 women for two decades.
According to research published in the medical journal 'BMC Medicine', a long study conducted by American experts found that men who frequently consume vegetables, fruits, pulses, and dried fruits have intestinal problems. The chances of cancer are reduced by 22%.
During the study, the experts gave all the volunteers a list of 180 ingredients and asked them which foods they ate and which drinks they drank on a daily basis.
Similarly, the experts gave the above list to the women and asked them the same question?
The list included 180 foods and beverages including fish, poultry, meat, mutton, vegetables, fruits, eggs, dry fruits, tea, coffee, and wine.
The experts also examined all the volunteers at different times, and after two decades all the volunteers were again tested. Including asking questions about their dietary habits.
The results showed that 4,974 out of 80,000 men were diagnosed with colon cancer.
Experts noted that colon cancer was diagnosed in people who consumed foods other than fruits, vegetables, dry fruits, pulses, and tea and coffee.
Experts divided all foods into different categories and placed pulses and vegetables as natural foods while eggs, chicken, meat, and fish were classified as healthy foods.
According to scientists, although healthy foods are also good for health, they do not help reduce the risk of colon cancer.
According to experts, by eating vegetables, fruits, dry fruits, and pulses containing more fiber and antioxidants, the chances of developing bowel cancer in men increase by 22%.
Experts also clarified that fruits, vegetables, pulses, and dried fruits do not play any role in increasing or decreasing the chances of colon cancer in women.
However, the experts did not make it clear that men should eat daily or weekly amounts of vegetables, fruits, dry fruits, and pulses.
Apart from this, the experts also emphasized further research on the said issue.
According to a study conducted by American nutritionists, fruits and vegetables are more beneficial for men than women.
According to a report published in the science journal 'JAMA', frequent consumption of green vegetables and fresh fruits helps protect against heart diseases, obesity, and some types of cancer including diabetes.
The report found that while fruits and vegetables are beneficial for men and women and all ages, especially adults, they are more beneficial for men.
According to the report, fruits and vegetables in particular benefit men more than women in reducing obesity and protecting them from heart disease.
According to nutritionists, men, especially apples, pears, and green vegetables, especially leafy vegetables, benefit more than women.
Interestingly, an earlier study reported that certain vegetables cause stress in men.
British experts said after research that men who ate vegetables had 74% more mental confusion, depression, sadness, or depression than meat eaters.
Experts said that there could be many reasons why men eat vegetables, one of them is that people themselves have decided that vegetables are good for health.
According to the experts, there is no doubt that there may be economic problems behind people's eating only vegetables, however, most of the people consider vegetables to be better for their diet.
Experts have said that vegetables are also useful for many diseases, but most vegetables are deficient in vitamins B12, B6, folic acid, and iron, which are important for mental health.
