Cancer is already a high incidence, and it is a disease that seriously threatens our life and health. According to the latest data, there are nearly 4 million new cancer patients every year, and 220 new cancer patients are diagnosed every year. Thousands of patients die of cancer. #Aile Health Guide#
In the early stage of cancer, most patients have no symptoms or no Obvious symptoms are often ignored. When obvious discomfort occurs, most of them are in the middle and late stages when they go to the hospital to see a doctor, and the treatment effect is poor.
If you want to detect tumors early and obtain better treatment effects, you must have regular physical examinations every year. If you have the following symptoms, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible to check the following.
01
Cancer is silent, but the following four signs indicate that there is cancer in the body
1. Unexplained weight loss: Cancer is more common in middle-aged and elderly people. When there is no cause, such as hyperthyroidism, diabetes and other clear causes, the possibility of tumor needs to be considered.
Because the proliferation of cancer cells in the body will consume too much energy in the body, resulting in weight loss, you should go as soon as possible hospital check.
2. Low fever: Tumor patients may experience fever , generally low heat below 38 degrees Celsius. Because tumor cells become necrotic, the body can absorb these necrotic cells, causing a fever.
Tumor cells can also secrete some factors to cause body fever. Conventional treatments for tumor-induced fever are often insignificant. Effective, the use of antibiotics is useless.
3. Pain: Generally early Cancer does not cause pain, only the advanced cancer invades nerves or compresses surrounding organs, causing severe pain.
4. Superficial lymphadenopathy: Cancer can metastasize to the lymph nodes around the tumor, or even the lymph nodes of the whole body. Sometimes we can feel one or more painless masses on the body surface, which are relatively hard in texture and have poor mobility.
Common lymph nodes include inguinal, supraclavicular, axillary, and cervical lymph nodes.
02
Why are there more and more cancer patients?
1. We live longer and longer< /strong>
The average life expectancy of ancient people is only over 40 years old, and many people have not lived to the high incidence of modern cancer. Because of poverty, malnutrition, wars and epidemics, they died suddenly.
As life expectancy increases, so does the spectrum of lethal diseases, and cancer is an uncontrolled Abnormal mutation, the older you live, the higher the probability of occurrence in theory.
2. Medical examinations are becoming more and more developed, and cancer registration is becoming more standardized
The sharper the way we find cancer, the more sensitive cancer markers and the better the resolution The higher the CT, the more cancers are found, and the cancer patients appear to be everywhere.
3. The high-stress, high-paced modern living environment is polluted, and the nutrient density is unprecedentedly increased, but the carcinogenic effect is the same Elevated diet, excessive obesity, lack of exercise, etc., modern man has a different form of existence than any stage in history.
We are more materially rich than at any time in history, but our poor lifestyles are also more likely to lead to cancer.

Cancer population increase year by year? Doctor reminds: these 5 kinds of vegetables, it is best not to eat
“eat more vegetables” It is the consensus of people on health, but there are so many types of vegetables, not all vegetables can be eaten. Some vegetables have great health risks and may even induce cancer. These vegetables must not be eaten.
Cancer Inducer –Bracken< /strong>
< /p>
Bracken, alias fist vegetable, cat’s claw, excellent taste, rich in nutrition, and has high efficacy and role, is It is called “The Overlord of Mountain Vegetables”. As a traditional green leafy food in my country, bracken is a popular spring wild vegetable.
There has been relatively certain evidence in animal experiments that bracken is carcinogenic; Epidemiological studies also found that eating bracken and esophageal cancer, gastric cancer and other upper gastrointestinal cancers have a significant correlation.
Bracken is carcinogenic, and the key root cause is that it contains a chemical called “protofern”, according to research. The chemical was found to increase the incidence of rectal and esophageal cancers, and the chemical was most abundant in some young leaves.
Cancer inducer – bitter gourd
There have been news reports of children suffering cardiac arrest after ingesting bitter gourd. There are two main types of gourd: sweet gourd and bitter gourd. Bitter gourd is similar in appearance to sweet gourd, but the abdominal cavity of the melon is slightly larger and accompanied by deformity.
The taste is slightly bitter and contains glycoside endotoxin. This toxin is not easily decomposed under high temperature. Cucurbita melon with high endotoxin content of cucurbita glycosides can cause food poisoning, causing symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and fever.
Cancer Inducer – Fresh Daylily
Fresh golden needles contain colchicine. Colchicine itself is non-toxic, but after eating The air in the body is oxidized into a very toxic colchicine, which can cause diarrhea and vomiting, muscle weakness or even death in severe cases.
Therefore, you must blanch the fresh golden needles in boiling water first, and then soak them in cold water for 2-3 hours.
Cancer Inducers – Red Cabbage
Red phoenix, because of its bright red color, some people even call it “blood-enhancing vegetable”. In fact, red phoenix contains pyrrolizidine alkaloids, which have potential hepatotoxicity and are very
pyrrolizidine alkaloidsmore than 660 known Some of them are highly hepatotoxic to humans, or show carcinogenicity in animal experiments, which can cause hepatic veno-occlusive disease, liver fibrosis, and in severe cases, acute liver failure and even death.
Therefore, fenugreek may also have potential hepatotoxicity and carcinogenicity, and may synergize with aflatoxin, hepatitis B virus, Increased risk of primary liver cancer.
Cancer inducers—< span>Houttuynia cordata
Houttuynia cordata, also known as Zheergen, is a popular flavor vegetable in southwest my country. Its biggest problem is Yes, it contains a class of substances called “aristololactams” which may be nephrotoxic.
Aristolochic acid is one of the strongest known carcinogens, triggering DNA in even very small amounts The obvious damage, and then lead to kidney cancer, liver cancer, bladder cancer and other cancers.
Studies have shown that the direct intake of aristololactam can also lead to similar intake of aristolochia. The damage of boric acid indicates that Houttuynia cordata containing aristololactam may also have potential nephrotoxicity and carcinogenicity.

How can cancer be prevented?
1. Do a genetic screening to see the susceptibility of those tumors carried in the gene Genes, targeted to prevent risk factors for this type of cancer.
2. A comprehensive physical examination is conducted once a year, and no abnormality is missed.
3. Keep a good mood and exercise more.
4. Stay away from carcinogens and carcinogenic foods.
05
Extended – What cancers have the potential to be cured, or to survive long term?
1. Lymphohematological malignancies: some types of leukemia, some types of Lymphoma, through chemotherapy, targeted and immune comprehensive treatment, many patients can strive for a cure, do not give up easily.
2. Certain childhood malignancies: such as Wilms tumor, childhood neuroblastoma, Ewing’s Sarcomas, etc., even in the advanced stage, still have a chance for cure or long-term survival.
3. Certain malignant germ cell tumors: such as testicular malignant germ cell tumors, gestational choriocarcinoma, etc. , Needless to say in the early stage, there is still the possibility of seeking a cure in the late stage.
4. Some common solid tumors in the advanced stage: common Many malignant tumors, such as lung cancer, breast cancer, gastric cancer, colorectal cancer, liver cancer, etc., can be cured in the early stage, but once it reaches the advanced stage, it is usually incurable.
