Warning of future cancer trends

There are many theories that suggest that cancer is a disease that arises due to human lifestyle and lack of science. But is cancer a disease of modern society?

Cancer is considered to be one of the most dangerous diseases found with an increasing number of cases in the world. There are many theories that suggest that cancer is a disease that arises due to human lifestyle and lack of science. But is cancer a disease of modern society?

Is it a disease of modern society

With the number of patients detected as having cancer and the number of cancer deaths has increased dramatically in the past few years, cancer has been considered a disease of modern society. Dr. Rosalie David - University of Manchester - England and TS. Michael Zimmermann - Villanova University in his research has affirmed: modern social life has contributed to the formation of many factors causing cancer.

The toxic chemicals from household products, ultraviolet rays, industrial dust, polluted living environment, living habits lack of science, alcohol, tobacco . have accelerated the number of cases Cancer around the world. However, a recent study conducted on Egyptian mummies and fossil skeletons of ancient Egypt helped science clarify this question. Test results have shown many signs of these deaths due to cancer. It can be said that cancer has existed for a long time in history, although it is only one of the diseases causing low mortality rate in the world.

New cases of cancer will mainly be concentrated in underdeveloped countries.

Research on tens of thousands of ancient skeletons and hundreds of ancient mummies, TS. David Zimmermann only found that a few of them had cancer. Understanding the symptoms described in the recorded documents, the scientists found that the cancer that was fatal for the Egyptians and Greeks was intestinal cancer.

What causes increased cancer?

In fact, when there are no factors that increase the risk of cancer today, free radiation in the environment, ultraviolet rays from the sun and viruses that cause inflammation lead to cancer like Papilloma. Viruses, viruses of hepatitis . can also cause cancer for humans.

However, the current increase in cancer status stemmed from the lack of science and the impact of the living environment , and food and food are potentially many factors that cause cell changes in the body.

Tobacco addiction habit is one of the leading factors in increasing cancer in the world. According to the World Health Organization statistics, 1/4 of the total number of cancer patients worldwide today is caused by tobacco. In cigarette smoke contains carcinogen which is a poison that destroys cells and stimulates cells to transform into strange cells. This poison is easily absorbed into the human body through the respiratory tract, through the skin due to exposure to smoke . But it cannot be released outside the body. Instead, they accumulate in the body in areas such as the liver, lungs and destroy cells or transform them into strange cells.

The factor that increases cancer ranks second after tobacco is alcohol. The habit of drinking alcohol causes stomach and liver function to decline and increase the risk of cancer. In addition to exposure to ultraviolet rays in the sun, passive lifestyles, the use of many high-fat, lazy foods, also contribute to increased cancer rates for humans.

Test results on 14th-century Chilean and Italian mummies and ancient Egyptian mummies show that most of these people died before the age of 50. But for those with cancer today, regardless of age year old. Obviously, cancer is a long-standing disease, but under the impact of human environment and living habits, this disease is increasing.

The development trend of cancer in modern society

According to forecasts by British scientists, in the 21st century, cancer continues to be a disease with high mortality rates in the world. Science has not been able to find a definitive treatment of cases of melanoma, and cancer is still considered a difficult disease to cure.

The explanation for the number of cancer deaths will increase in the future, scientists said, because of changing living conditions, people's living habits have many disadvantages to health, accompanied by is the global climate change leading to the harshness of the weather, heavily polluted environments . These factors have affected people to increase the risk of disease, including risks muscle appears modified cells.

The concentration of free radioactive molecules in high environments causes the risk of exposure to increased radiation and is a favorable condition for the occurrence of cancer. Bad habits especially contribute significantly to increasing cancer. According to research in the United States, obesity due to lack of scientific and lazy eating habits also increases the risk of cancer. In women, the higher the body weight and obesity, the more estrogen produced by the body and the higher the incidence of breast cancer. In addition, statistics show that: the number of obese people with health problems such as intestinal cancer, liver and kidney diseases . is much higher than that of normal people.

According to the statistics of the United Nations Cancer Organization , by 2030, the number of cancer cases in the world will increase many times over the current number and the number of cancer deaths will be twice as many. The number has been reported worldwide in 2008. According to this estimate, the number of deaths from cancer will reach more than 13.2 million by 2030.

The International Association for Cancer Research - IARC also said that about 21.4 million new cases of cancer will be discovered by 2030 and will focus mainly in poor countries - where living standards are low and billion The highest disease incidence in the world.

The above IARC forecast numbers not only give warnings about the risk of cancer outbreaks but also a warning to health care organizations in countries around the world.
