Introduction: This is a very useful cancer body interaction chart to make you understand the relationship between carcinogens and cancer properly. Then let’s learn it together! What is the relationship between eating and drinking and tumor Alcohol Brother KAI has also hinted several times that alcohol causes cancer, that is a full blossom, as shown in the picture, from top to bottom which are all there. It does not spare the oropharynx, throat, esophagus, breast, liver, colon and rectum. Red meat Pork, beef, lamb and other mammalian meats are red meat, which is classified by WHO as a Group II A carcinogen, mainly causing colorectal cancer. Processed meats are classified as Class I carcinogens by WHO and can cause colorectal cancer. High-salt diet Excessive salt intake can lead to stomach cancer. Relevant survey data shows that the daily salt intake of each person in China is about 8-10 grams, while people who love to eat salty dishes have a daily salt intake of more than 15 grams, which is far more than the required standard. Some time ago, JAMA published an article on a survey and regression analysis of salt intake of Chinese people in the past 10 years, and the results are quite unpromising. In addition to cancer, excessive salt intake contributes more to cardiovascular and metabolic diseases than sugar. It seems that in addition to sugar control, salt control should also be taken seriously. Inadequate fruit intake It is not surprising that eating too little fruit can lead to oropharyngeal cancer, esophageal cancer, lung cancer and stomach cancer. Some time ago diabetes experts just reminded Chinese people that fruits and vegetables are still low in the diet. According to research, people who eat less than 100g of fruit per day have at least twice the incidence of stomach cancer than those who eat more than 100g per day. The recommended fruit intake is 300g or more per day. Insufficient fiber intake Low fiber intake can easily lead to colorectal cancer. According to statistics, if the daily intake of fiber is less than 6g, the incidence of rectal colon cancer is at least 85% higher than that of those who consume more than 6g. Among the high fiber foods, celery, apples, carrots, cabbage, bamboo shoots, etc. are easy to obtain daily fruits and vegetables. Inadequate intake of non-starchy vegetables It seems that not eating vegetables is as serious as not eating fruits. Non-starchy vegetables means that you can’t use potatoes, a high-risk factor for diabetes, to fill the bill. Inadequate intake can lead to oropharyngeal cancer, esophageal cancer and stomach cancer. The recommended intake is more than 375g per day. Lifestyle habits which are prone to cancer Smoking Knowing that smoking causes cancer, but really draw out the impact is really unusual, even wine to sigh at themselves. Smoking can cause cancer in all systems of the body. The oropharynx, larynx, esophagus, lungs, kidneys, pancreas, stomach, bladder, colon and rectum are all target organs of cancer caused by smoking, in addition to this, leukemia, a cancer in the blood system, can also be caused by smoking. If a woman smokes, it can also cause ovarian cancer. Excessive sun exposure Many dermatologists are constantly reminding the public and their patients to be careful to avoid exposure to the sun, especially when the sun is strong. And, sun protection products, including umbrellas, sun hats, shade clothing and sunscreen have been constantly recommended by doctors and various dermatological societies. After all, the incidence of melanoma is not low, and malignant melanoma, once metastasized, will be difficult to treat. According to statistics, more than 90% of melanoma is caused by sun exposure. Lack of exercise Brother KAI has published articles on the prevention and treatment of cancer by exercise, but I never thought that lack of exercise would also give birth to cancer? According to statistics, women who exercise at least 30 minutes a day, five days a week at moderate intensity are more than twice less likely to develop endometrial cancer than women who do not get this amount of exercise. For breast cancer, those who exercise less than 90 minutes a week at moderate intensity are more than twice as likely to develop cancer as those who reach that level of exercise. The most inactive people, both men and women, who do not even get one hour of physical activity per week, will have a much higher chance of developing colorectal cancer, at least double. In a word, the less active you are, the more types of cancer you may have and the higher the risk. What are the pathogenic factors that can lead to cancer Obesity The topic of obesity has been talked about again and again recently, but most of them point to cardiovascular and endocrine problems. In fact, obesity is also a powerful contributor to cancer! The risk of esophageal cancer, breast cancer, kidney tumor, pancreatic cancer, colon cancer and rectal cancer is higher than that of non-obese people to varying degrees for those with BMI over 30. Women who are obese also have a high risk of ovarian cancer and endometrial cancer. Overweight One third of the adult population in China is overweight, but there are many people who feel that being overweight is not a big problem. Many people are always telling others to eat fatter, not realizing that this seemingly well-intentioned act of enthusiasm is actually pushing others into the fire – it is very important to keep your weight in a healthy state. Otherwise, as the chart shows, being overweight also brings a high risk of cancer – esophageal cancer, breast cancer, kidney tumors, pancreatic cancer, rectal cancer, and colon cancer. Women also have a risk of endometrial adenocarcinoma. HPV The reason why I put two pictures this time is because there is always the assumption that HPV only harms women and not men. However, HPV is actually carcinogenic in humans regardless of gender. In men, cancers of the oral cavity, throat, rectum and penis can be caused by HPV. A 2013 CDC report states that cutaneous HPV can also cause prostate cancer. The common cancers that can be caused by HPV in women are oral tumors, throat tumors, pelvic cancer, cervical cancer, vaginal tumors and rectal cancer. Because HPV is so efficiently transmitted, the HPV vaccine is currently the only effective means of prevention, and both men and women should obtain protection. Helicobacter pylori Recent studies have proven that patients infected with H. pylori are six times more likely to develop stomach cancer. HBV, the hepatitis B virus, is also the reason why China has become a major country for liver disease and liver cancer. According to statistics, HBV infected people are 20 times more likely to develop liver cancer. HCV hepatitis C virus, not only causes liver cancer, but also non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. HIV HIV can also cause cancer, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, in addition to causing major problems in the immune system, which can lead to systemic problems. Infected people are 7 times more likely to develop non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma compared to non-infected people. What medical practices and drugs cause cancer? Oral contraceptives There has been an ongoing debate about the pros and cons of oral contraceptives, and even in the field of cancer, it has its good and bad points. According to statistics, the incidence of breast cancer in women in developed countries is 12.5%, but those who routinely take oral contraceptives have a 20% increase in their chances of developing breast cancer. The carcinogenic effects of oral contraceptives do not subside until 10 years after they are discontinued. In the case of ovarian cancer, oral contraceptives do not increase the incidence of ovarian cancer, but effectively reduce it, even after the user has stopped taking them for 10 years. Similarly, in the case of endometrial cancer, women taking oral contraceptives also benefit – the incidence of endometrial cancer is greatly reduced during the period of adherence to the pill, and is kept at a low risk level for up to 20 years after stopping the pill, although the incidence is not kept extremely low. Hormone replacement therapy Whether it is estrogen replacement therapy or combined with HRT, the increase in the incidence of ovarian cancer is 20-fold. In breast cancer, the situation is somewhat more complicated. The risk of breast cancer is increased by 70% if you use combined HRT for less than 5 years, and more than triples if you use it for more than 5 years. Once treatment is terminated, however, the risk of developing the disease returns to normal. In the case of estrogen replacement therapy, the incidence of breast cancer is increased by 30%. Endometrial adenocarcinoma: If the patient has not had a hysterectomy, then using estrogen replacement therapy for more than five years will increase the chance of developing endometrial adenocarcinoma by more than 11 times. If treatment is given for less than five years, the increase in this risk is about twice as high. The effect on the incidence of endometrial adenocarcinoma can last up to 10 years even after treatment is terminated. The addition of progesterone to hormone replacement therapy is effective in reducing the incidence of endometrial adenocarcinoma, so that the incidence of endometrial adenocarcinoma in women using combined HRT is only slightly higher than in normal women. In the case of colorectal cancer, estrogen replacement therapy has a different effect – it reduces the incidence of colorectal cancer. However, combined HRT does not have an effect on the incidence of colorectal cancer.
