Ms. Jiang (pseudonym) is 43 years old. She likes sports and lives a regular life. She has not had a cold or fever for nearly ten years.
Not long ago, Ms. Yan suddenly had a cold and fever, which persisted, and went to the hospital for treatment. Due to the needs of epidemic prevention and control, Ms. Yan underwent a CT examination, and the results showed that “the lungs were normal”, but there was“swollen lymph nodes in the armpit”.
She subsequently performedlymph node aspiration and was considered as “risk of malignancy”.
After physical examination, the doctor found Ms. Yan’s an abnormal lump in her left breast , MRI results showed that the diameter of the lesion was about 3.5cm, highly suspected of breast cancer. After the pathological diagnosis, Ms. Yan received breast-conserving surgery and neoadjuvant therapy, and the lesion was reduced to 0.02cm. She is still undergoing intensive treatment to consolidate and improve the curative effect.
Once, Ms. Yan did not believe in the saying that “long-term absence of a cold is more likely to cause cancer”, But after this experience, she started to believe it.
1. How strong is the human immune system?
The immune system can be divided intoinnate immunity and Acquired immunity (also called acquired immunity).
Innate immunityrefers to the immunity that a person has at birth and is the earliest defense mechanism of the body. A variety of germs have a defensive effect. Acquired immunityrefers to the immune system formed by continuous exposure to pathogens (such as bacteria, harmful substances, etc.)
External, the immune system protects against the invasion of foreign bacteria and germs. Internally, the immune system plays a “monitoring” role, identifying and removing abnormal cells in the body in time, such as cancer cells. In addition, the immune system has the ability to homeostasis to continuously remove damaged, senescent and dead cells from the body to keep the body alive.
But be aware that the immune systemdoes not provide permanent protection, When encountering unfamiliar pathogens, it may still be defeated.
2. If you don’t have a cold and fever for a long time, and your immune system is poor, are you more likely to get cancer?
Associate Professor of Research in the Department of Pathology and Experimental Medicinesection of ginger said that clinically, there is indeed a long-term People who are ill suddenly develop cancer, but only in rare cases.
As early as 1986, some scholars conducted a survey on the “Correlation Between Colds and Cancer”, comparing cancer patients and non-cancer patients Cold status in the past 10 years, it was found that 41.7% of cancer patients had less than 1 cold per year compared to 33.5% of non-cancer patients, but they were statistically significant School attendancenot significantly different.
Then why is it that someone who never catches a cold is suddenly diagnosed with a serious illness?
From clinical experience, the possible reason is< span>Ignore mild symptoms and go to the hospital less often.
People with frequent colds tend to be more sensitive to symptoms, receive more tests, and are more likely to catch the disease at an early stage. And those who never catch a cold may ignore a mild cough, fever, and don’t care about minor symptoms until they have to go. In the hospital, the probability of exacerbation of the disease also increased.
Third, a habit enhances immunity and develops an “anti-cancer constitution”
Having a good habit at ordinary times can enhance immunity and develop “Anti-cancer constitution”?
Research tells you: The habit is to keep exercising.
A study published in Sports Medicine & Science found that exercise not only improves overall health, but also The body releases a myokine, a that has the ability to inhibit tumor growth. “Secret weapon”.
Myokines can signal to the immune system, in the body, says study author Professor Robert Creates a “tumor suppressor environment” that slows cancer cell growth. He also speculates that this myokine may be effective against all forms of tumors.
Fourth, these 3 kinds of sports are more effective
We all know that exercise can enhance physical fitness, but which kind of exercise is the best, do you know?
The authoritative medical journal “The Lancet” published a survey involving 1.2 million people to analyze the impact of different sports on human physical and mental health. The results show that the top three sports are
span>Swing, swimming, and cardio reduced all-cause mortality by 47%, 28%, and 27%, respectively.< /p>
These three sports have their own advantages and are suitable for different groups of people. You can choose the one you like.
1. Swing sports
Including table tennis, badminton, tennis, etc. Large consumption, can exercise the muscles of the whole body, regulate eye movement, speed up the blood circulation and metabolism of tissues, thereby improving the sensitivity of the body. In addition, swing Exercise-like also boosts brain speed Thinking plays a role in strengthening the brain and delaying cognitive aging.
Swing sports are suitable for people of all ages. Among them, table tennis and badminton with lower intensity and less resistance are more suitable for the elderly, and strength sports such as tennis and squash are more suitable for young people.
recommended3-5 times per weekswing-type exercise, each time 30-60 minutes is ideal.
2. Swimming
Swimming can exercise the whole body, improve cardiopulmonary function and blood circulation, Relieve stress and regulate mood, and have obvious preventive and rehabilitation effects on cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, obesity, arthritis and other diseases.
Swimming is suitable for people of all ages, but if you have severe cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, should be avoided, such as coronary heart disease, more serious arrhythmias, rheumatic valve disease and so on. It is recommended to do swimming exercise 2-3 times a week, each time of about 30 minutes is appropriate.
3. Aerobic exercise< /p>
Aerobic exercise can exercise cardiopulmonary function, help stabilize blood pressure, blood sugar and blood lipids, improve myocardial antioxidant capacity, enhance immune function, and improve weight loss. Common aerobic exercises include brisk walking, jogging, cycling, aerobics, tai chi, etc.
Cardio also worksfor all ages, especially overweight and obese crowd. It is recommended to do at least 150-200 minutes of aerobic exercise per week, divided into 3-5 times.
In general, not getting sick for a long time does not mean that we are “holding back” a serious illness. We must do a good job of health care in daily life, strengthen our immunity, and check in time. The body can detect diseases as soon as possible.
