Introduction: "Neijing" cloud "The master is unknown, then the twelve officials are in danger." Cancer is a typical example of this "unclear" disease.
Cancer is a general term for a malignant tumor, is a chronic disease, may occur in all parts of the body, our common head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, thyroid cancer, esophageal cancer, stomach cancer, colorectal cancer, etc., are specific manifestations of cancer, for women, breast cancer, cervical cancer, ovarian cancer and other common cancers.
For early-stage cancers, we usually consider surgery first** followed by a combination of radiotherapy and chemotherapy**, however, for patients with advanced cancer, we can only do palliative care because the opportunity for surgery has been lost**.
This includes radiotherapy, chemotherapy, endocrine**, targeting**, immunotherapy**, etc., and if the patient has not had ** for more than 5 years, we can consider it to have reached the clinical**.
However, for cancer, we can only observe the condition at any time according to the **situation, and cannot fully predict the survival time, although medicine is constantly advancing, cancer is still a complex condition that needs to be carried out by considering a variety of factors**.
Longevity
With advances in medical technology and improved living conditions, people live longer on average, which means that people are more likely to develop cancer at a later age.
Lifestyle factors
Poor lifestyles, such as high-fat diets, lack of exercise, obesity, smoking, and excessive alcohol consumption, are considered risk factors for cancer, and these bad Xi habits are becoming more common in modern society, so the incidence of cancer is also increasing.
Environmental factors
Pollutants and chemicals in the environment, such as air, water, and soil pollution, as well as exposure to radioactive materials, can increase the risk of cancer.
Viral infections
Certain viral infections are thought to be one of the factors contributing to cancer, such as the association between human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and cervical cancer.
Although cancer is becoming more and more problematic these days, the World Health Organization states that about 30% to 50% of cancers can be prevented and avoided at an early stage.
In other words, if you can develop good living Xi habits in your daily life, especially dietary Xi habits, you can reduce the risk of cancer to a certain extent.
For everyone, we must pay special attention to diet, after all, the disease comes from the mouth, this sentence is not a joke, many people will eat more vegetables for health, but not every vegetable is suitable for people to eat, the following 4 kinds of vegetables will have their own toxins, it is recommended that you eat less:
Daylily
When daylily is set aside and cooled slowly, some of the substances in it quietly oxidize to form a toxic substance called colchicine.
Colchicine is actually a toxin that has a strong irritating effect on the intestinal mucosa, it may cause a series of food poisoning symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting, lightheadedness, etc., in order to reduce the toxicity of daylily, some people will take the method of pinching off the stamens and then putting the remaining part into water to soak at high temperature.
This method can indeed remove the toxicity of colchicine to the greatest extent, but it cannot be completely eliminated, even after high temperature soaking, there will still be colchicine residue in the daylily, excessive consumption, even if the toxicity is small, may bring carcinogenic risks to the body.
Wild celery
Some people often like to pick water celery, because water celery is relatively high in nutritional value and good for health, however, many people can't distinguish between water celery and wild celery, and it is easy to eat wild celery by mistake.
Although wild celery also has a certain nutritional value, it contains a certain toxicity, if consumed too much, it may cause nausea, vomiting and other uncomfortable symptoms, and even cause certain damage to cells, increasing the risk of cancer.
Therefore, it is recommended that when picking wild vegetables, we should carefully distinguish and avoid eating poisonous wild vegetables by mistake, if you are not sure whether a certain wild vegetable is poisonous, it is best not to eat it at will, and at the same time, you should also pay attention to dietary hygiene, do not eat expired and spoiled wild vegetables. Bracken
Bracken this seemingly ordinary wild vegetable, in fact, there is a hidden mystery, behind its deliciousness, there is a hidden substance that may pose a threat to human health, although bracken is one of the favorite wild vegetables, but it contains some toxins that may cause harm to the human body. Among them, substances such as benzoxalic acid, sulfonic acid, fern lactam and xanthol are like "destroyers" in cells, and they have a certain link to the occurrence of cancer, and it is shocking that the protofern glycosides contained in bracken have been found to have a strong carcinogenic risk.
This substance is listed as a group 2b carcinogen by the World Health Organization, and animal experiments have confirmed that long-term consumption of bracken can induce colorectal cancer, bladder cancer, breast cancer and blood system diseases, and this carcinogenic risk is not only related to the frequency of eating bracken, but also closely related to the amount of bracken consumed.
Wild garlic
Wild garlic, also known as wild garlic or mountain garlic, is a common wild plant, it has a variety of effects, such as sterilization, detoxification, etc., but it is also necessary to pay attention to its strong irritation and a small amount of toxicity when eating. Wild garlic has a strong stimulating effect, especially on organs such as the liver, lungs, stomach and eyes, and for people with stomach problems, eating wild garlic can make stomach pain worse, and may even lead to stomach bleeding.
For people suffering from liver fever and hepatitis, eating wild garlic will add fuel to the fire and increase the burden on the liver, in addition, even healthy people should not eat wild garlic partially, because it may damage organs such as the spleen, lungs, liver, etc., and may cause damage to the eyes, when eating wild garlic, you must pay attention to the appropriate amount, and avoid excessive consumption.
Diversify your intake
Try to choose different kinds of vegetables to ensure that you are getting a variety of nutrients, and the color of the vegetables can be used as a guide for selection, as different colors of vegetables contain different nutrients.
Wash the vegetables
Before eating vegetables, they should be washed with clean water to remove possible bacteria, pesticide residues, and soil residues.
Cooking:
Vegetables can be eaten raw or cooked, but different vegetables can be cooked in different ways, and some vegetables lose some of their nutrients during the cooking process, so choose the appropriate cooking method such as steaming, boiling, sautéing, or roasting to retain the nutritional value to the maximum.
Cook and serve in moderation
While cooking vegetables can increase digestibility and taste, overcooking can lead to a loss of nutrients, so try to avoid overcooking to preserve the nutritional value of vegetables.
Avoid smoking and excessive alcohol consumption
Smoking and excessive alcohol consumption are one of the leading causes of many types of cancer, so try to avoid smoking and excessive alcohol consumption, and gradually reduce the frequency or amount of smoking or drinking alcohol if you can't quit smoking or drinking completely.
Have regular medical check-ups
Regular physical examination is one of the important measures to prevent cancer, through physical examination can detect potential cancer risks in time, and take corresponding measures, it is recommended to have a comprehensive physical examination every year, including blood tests, X-rays, CT scans, etc.
Maintain a positive mindset
A positive mindset helps to enhance immunity and metabolic levels, maintain good health, and to maintain a positive mindset and avoid excessive stress and anxiety, you can relax your mind and mind and relieve stress and anxiety through meditation, yoga, deep breathing, etc.
Sweet potatoes
Sweet potatoes are a vegetable rich in dietary fiber and vitamin C, which can enhance the body's immune function and reduce the risk of cancer.
Carrots
Carrots are rich in carotene and vitamin A, which can protect cells from free radical damage, thereby preventing the occurrence of cancer.
Spinach
Spinach is rich in folate and vitamin C, which help reduce the risk of colon and stomach cancer.
Broccoli
Broccoli is a vegetable rich in vitamin C, folate, and dietary fiber, which has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects and may protect against many types of cancer.
The answer to this question is not a simple "yes" or "no".
The rate of cancer depends on a variety of factors, including the type of cancer, the stage, the age and health of the patient, and the choice and implementation of the modality.
Some cancers, such as carcinoma and breast cancer, have the potential to be treated with the right conditions, however, for some advanced or diffuse cancers, the main goal is to prolong the patient's life and improve the quality of life.
