A member asked:
I drink 16oz of prune juice everyday to regulate me. is this healthy to do? i read prunes have high concentration of acrylamide.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No verdict yet...: Looked that one up. Acrylamide apparently is in a ton of foods, including coffee, black olives & lots of starchy foods. The WHO is collecting data on it, but as of now, there are no evidence-based conclusions regarding whether it is associated with an increased incidence of cancers of any kind. I read eons ago that there may actually be a decreased incidence of colon CA in heavy coffee drinkers...
