ArtistThe instinctive process control As we talked about with Thai cuisine, in countries like Vietnam, Thailand and South China there is no "nitrate panic". Cultural chemistry: Here the diet is naturally rich in both nitrate (green) and amines (fermented fish). But because the meal culture is built around lime, lemongrass, chilli and fresh herbs, always run their internal "reactors" at full shielding gas. The result: Historically speaking, they have not seen the same links between a nitrate-rich diet and stomach cancer as has been feared in the West, precisely because of their "automatic" process control.
In regions like Vietnam, Thailand, and South China, traditional diets rich in nitrates and amines are complemented by fresh herbs and spices. This culinary approach creates a natural balance that mitigates health risks associated with high nitrate consumption. Consequently, these cultures have not experienced the same cancer concerns linked to nitrate-rich diets as seen in the West.
