Cancer
and
the Environment
Cancer death is often the highest
amongst
the
3 commonest causes of
death
-
cancer, coronaries and
stroke.
Six million people are dying ol cancer
each year on earth; in China
alone,
1.3
million.'By.Q020,
deaths
may
reach
12
millirin.
The causation of cancer
is
' .usually
nu.tlti-factorial
but
has a lot
to do
:
'With:the
diet
and
other personal
habits
:
,liiie
sdroking
and drinking. Take
a
well-
.
balhnced
diet and avoid
over-eating,
.
|.:tpn
food,
burnt meat, salted
fish
and
any
food that
is
too hot, salty
but
take
;
:rhore
food containing fibre, fresh fruits
.
:qnd:Vegetables. Avoid
stress and
be
:
.!!!lent;
take
regular exercises'
As
:"sfibkihg
is directly
related
to
the
I
pqqiation
of
lung cancer, stop
it
right
the
way.
The high risk of a
chronic
smoker would be reduced
to
normal
levels
15
years after smoke
cessation.
ln
order
to
manage certain
precursors
-
like
hepatitis of
the
liver
and
H
pylori
.
.
infection of the
stomach, more organized
. .
:
and
itlu6tured
interventions
are
.
reqiired, irostly
with the Government
sufpo-ri. Cancer screening
in
high-risk
groups would not only pick
up the
eaiiiest
asymptomatic cancers but also
help
to
impart early cancer diagnosis
knowledge
of
the
cancer
being
screened
- a highly
worlhwhile
exercise.
