According To Italians, Too Much Bread Causes Kidney Cancer, Wonder If Theres Any Truth To This?

This doesn't seem to be the least bit rational, first of all, bread is mostly carbohydrates, those break down and turn into glucose, the bodies form of fuel (to keep it simple). Eating too much bread might cause diabetes and obesity in the long run since bread (white) has a high glycemic index and if it's energy isn't used up quickly, it's stored as fat.

There is no connection between the kidneys and digestion except that the kidneys are the gateway for the excretion of metabolites. Not correctly digesting food can, however, lead to intestinal cancers because of the formation of polyps, which are benign but can turn malignant after a time. Polyps form because of the lack of fibre in the intestines(which cleans out the intestines). Hope that helped!

Not really; too many carbs can lead to weight problems and therefore diabetes type II; diabetes can impair blood vessel delivery of nutrients and can therefore damage the kidney...but as far as kidney cancer goes, I highly doubt it.

What Italians? Do not believe all you read and only half you see

Interesting theory!
