Cancer is a fatal disease, whose precise and guaranteed successful treatment is still a subject of research. But recently cancer cases are coming to the fore rapidly. It can start from one part of the body and spread throughout the body, making it difficult to prevent it. There can be many causes of cancer, including unhealthy lifestyle, unhealthy, junk and processed food, use of plastic, low physical activity, stress, use of cosmetics, pesticides, genetics, heavy metals, smoking, alcohol etc.
However, mainly seen, there are three main things, which double the risk of cancer.
Let’s know about these three things to Double The Risk of Cancer-
Plastic
Additives like BPA, microplastic, bisphenol, phthalate present in plastic invite cancer. All these are considered endocrine disrupting chemicals, which interfere with the hormones of the body and increase the risk of cancer like breast cancer. Choose glass glasses instead and avoid plastic utensils or plastic bottles. Do not pack food in plastic and do not use disposable plastic utensils.
Pesticides
Farmers working with pesticides have an increased risk of prostate cancer and women working with pesticides have an increased risk of ovarian and bladder cancer. Pesticide-containing vegetables and fruits can also be responsible for cancer, so always wash vegetables and fruits thoroughly before eating.
Heavy metals
Heavy metals like arsenic, cadmium, chromium, nickel are among the main carcinogens, which tamper with the DNA and promote cancer cells as well as their metastasis process, increasing the chances of cancer spreading. This increases the chances of skin cancer, gastric cancer. Avoid consuming foods containing heavy metals in excess like spinach, rice, fruit juice, fish, etc.
