Practice Question

A client with chronic dyspepsia is diagnosed with gastric cancer; which dietary habit likely contributed?

Answer Choices:

Correct Answer:

Luncheon meats

Rationale:

🥩Luncheon meats are high in nitrates and nitrites, which are known carcinogens associated with gastric cancer risk.

🔥Preserved, smoked, or processed foods can damage the gastric mucosa, especially with long-term consumption.

🥤While carbonated drinks and sugars affect digestion, they are not linked directly to gastric cancer.

📋Patient teaching should include diet modification to reduce processed meat intake and promote gastric health.

📌Core Message

Frequent intake of processed meats like luncheon meats increases the risk of gastric cancer due to carcinogenic preservatives.
