The ferocious nature of cancer is so shocking at any time.
Friends often think that the terrible thing about cancer is that it cannot be cured. It always makes people feel that if they get cancer, they will die. Therefore, whenever they hear in the news or in reality who has cancer at a young age, they will shake their heads: it’s a pity…
However, every 6 minutes there is an ordinary person around you and me who is diagnosed with cancer, and the number of people diagnosed with cancer is increasing every year. Facing the rampant cancer, can you still do some what for yourself and your dear people?
-There are some ways to prevent cancer that everyone can do!
One third of cancers can be prevented
Cancer is not a disease, but a combination of many different diseases. We have no ability to control the occurrence of cancer like heart disease and stroke. The saying that [all cancers can be prevented] can only come from charlatans.
However, we are not completely powerless in the face of cancer. The most authoritative World Health Organization said that at least one third of cancer cases can be prevented.
These are the things that can really prevent cancer:
- Eliminate the risk factors that cause tumors. Early detection of some diseases or changes [that may become cancerous] Other proven effective methods.
Accurate Screening to Kill Cancer in Cradle
[Screening], just like sifting flour with a sieve, finds out those [problematic] things in the vast expanse.
For example, by detecting the blood hidden in the stool or extending directly into the intestine with colonoscope to see the internal appearance, [high-risk adenoma of colorectum] can be found earlier and properly treated (such as cutting off).
If you don’t do an examination and leave it there, this [colorectal high-risk adenoma] may be at risk of becoming colorectal cancer.
You see, this is how cancer is prevented.
Similarly, by observing the cells taken from the cervix, we may see that some cells have abnormalities. Timely treatment will reduce the possibility of cervical cancer.
In addition to colorectal cancer and cervical cancer, common lung, liver, esophageal and gastric cancers, as well as breast cancer, which has a very high incidence rate in women, have corresponding examination methods to detect minor changes that [may become cancer] at an early stage, or early, asymptomatic cancers. These seven cancers account for 80% of all cancers in adults.
In addition to screening, you should also pay attention to these
To prevent cancer, doctors will not rely solely on passive physical examination.
1. Quit smoking and limit alcohol consumption:
Smoking or secondhand smoke is the biggest avoidable carcinogenic factor. Tobacco can cause about 22% of cancer deaths every year, of which about 70% are lung cancer. Alcohol can increase the risk of esophageal cancer, liver cancer, colorectal cancer, etc. It is another cancer risk factor that can be controlled.
2. Vaccination:
Some viral infections are clearly linked to related cancers. For example, it is well known that hepatitis B and C may develop into liver cancer. Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection can lead to cervical cancer. Therefore, timely vaccination can significantly reduce the occurrence of such cancers.
3. Antibacterial:
Some specific bacterial infections will increase the possibility of cancer, such as [Helicobacter pylori], which is directly related to gastric cancer. Therefore, once found, timely eradication is a good measure to reduce cancer risk.
4. Good living habits:
For example, weight control, moderate exercise, healthy eating habits, improvement of living environment, reduction of indoor pollution, etc.
