After thinking about it and comparing it with it, there is no number more closely related to tumor than [5].
Studies have found that the number of new tumors can be reduced and most tumor deaths can be prevented. < < World Public Health Recommendations and Health Promotion Activities > > three effective tumor prevention measures recommended to the world are: diet adjustment, physical activity and tobacco control.
Prevention of tumor, 5 words first.
5 times and 50g: Meat should be eaten like this,
Tumor is a lifestyle-related disease, one third of tumors are related to daily diet and nutrition, and digestive tract tumors are more closely related to diet. 30% ~ 40% of tumors can be prevented by reasonable nutrition and adjustment of eating habits.
Studies have found that red meat and processed meat can increase the incidence of various tumors, while white meat has no such effect.
Recommendation: Eat less red meat and processed meat and eat white meat instead; Eat white meat 2-4 times a week, not more than 5 times; 50-100g each time, not more than 100g.
It can be simply classified as follows:
- Four legs, pigs, horses, cattle and sheep are red meat; Two legs, such as chickens, ducks and geese, are red and white. Animals without legs, fish, shrimps, etc. are white meat. Sausage, bacon, ham, bacon, luncheon meat, etc. are collectively referred to as processed meat.
From the perspective of tumor prevention:
The four-legged ones are not as good as the two-legged ones, the two-legged ones are not as good as the ones without legs, the captive ones are not as good as the free range ones, the land ones are not as good as the water ones, the river ones are not as good as the sea ones, and the processed ones are not as good as the fresh ones.
5 portions: Fresh fruits and vegetables are eaten like this,
An important principle to prevent tumors is to increase the intake of fruits and vegetables.
Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, which have good tumor prevention effect on normal people, especially children and young people. For tumor patients, they can reduce coexisting diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, thus prolonging tumor survival time.
The American Cancer College recommends: 5 servings of fruits and vegetables, 1 servings of fruits and at least 4 servings of vegetables per day.
- 1 portion of vegetables: refers to 100g of vegetables, or half a cup of 100% vegetable juice. 1 portion of fruit: refers to a natural unit of measurement, such as 1 apple, 1 banana, 1 orange, 1 pear, etc. ()
Fruits and vegetables are recommended to be eaten raw or cooked properly.
5 times versus 50 minutes: Intensify physical activity
Physical activity is not only an effective primary prevention measure for tumors, but also an effective tertiary treatment measure for tumors. Generally speaking, it is to prevent cancer without cancer and treat cancer with cancer.
- Healthy people: Physical activity has definite preventive effects on breast cancer, colon cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer and endometrial cancer. Tumor patients: Physical activity can improve the quality of life of tumor patients, prolong the survival time of tumor patients, reduce the recurrence and metastasis of tumor, reduce the incidence of second primary cancer, and thus reduce the risk of death of tumor patients.
According to the latest research report, physical activity can reduce the death risk of breast cancer and colorectal cancer patients by 30% ~ 50%, which is a curative effect that cannot be achieved by any drug therapy.
For healthy people:
- Minimum requirements: On the basis of ensuring more than 2 days of whole-body muscle strengthening activities per week, it should be matched with 150 minutes of medium-intensity aerobic physical activity per week, or 75 minutes of high-intensity aerobic physical activity per week, or a mixture of medium-intensity and high-intensity physical activity equivalent to the above amount of exercise; Higher requirements: The time for medium and high intensity aerobic physical activity in the above minimum requirements should be doubled.
For tumor patients:
- In addition to physical activities in daily life, moderate and high-intensity physical activities of 30-60 minutes at least 5 times a week; It is better to do 45 ~ 60 (about 50) minutes of moderate physical activity at a time.
50 Years Old: Begin Comprehensive Tumor Screening
The age of 50 is an age when comprehensive tumor screening should begin.
The age of 50 is an age when the risk of tumor onset begins to increase significantly, and comprehensive tumor screening is the best method for early detection of tumor.
The latest statistics in the United States show that the 5-year survival rate of tumor patients in the United States reached 65.8% from 2003 to 2009, while the overall 5-year survival rate of tumor patients in China reported by the Chinese Medical Association was only 22%. There are many reasons for such a huge difference, and insufficient early detection is the most important factor.
Some studies suggest that the whole body PET-CT (or chest CT, abdominal CT, brain MRI, pelvic MRI), gastroscopy, colonoscopy, even cystoscopy, blood tumor markers CEA, CA19-9, squamous cell carcinoma antigen, prostate specific antigen, CA125, AFP and fecal occult blood tests should be conducted once a year.
For the following tumor high-risk groups, comprehensive tumor screening should be conducted before the age of 50:
- Two or more of the parents, brothers and sisters who have suffered from tumors have suffered from tumor-specific gene variation inflammatory bowel disease familial intestinal polyps.
Tobacco control is also an important measure to prevent tumors.
A study in the British Medical Journal shows that quitting smoking at any age can benefit. The earlier you quit smoking, the greater the benefit.
However, quitting smoking after the age of 50 should be done slowly, not too hastily, and gradually reduce the amount. Otherwise, the psychological and physiological adverse effects brought by quitting smoking may outweigh the benefits and even induce other diseases.
Tumor therapy [5]
For tumor patients, [5] can still be seen in the treatment process.
The course of adjuvant chemotherapy is generally not less than 5 times, not less than 5 months, and 0.5 years to complete all chemotherapy. 5 years is also very special for all tumor patients. If 5 years pass, it means that the risk of tumor recurrence and metastasis has been greatly reduced.
If the tumor is the wolf that lurks around and may eat us at any time, then the tumor patient must always be ready to face the wolf and share with the wolf [5].
