Case description

Diet appears to play a major role in the development of stomach cancer. Nitroso compounds such as nitrites (found in smoked meats and fish) and nitrates (used in food preservatives), and high salt intake, likely contribute to this disease, whereas fresh vegetables are protective. The question of whether green tea also has any protective effects remains debatable.
