I believe many people are dismayed by the word "cancer". cancer , everyone may think it is far away from them, but once diagnosed, everyone will lose their mind. In fact, most organs in the body may develop tumors, such as lung cancer, breast cancer, and other common cancer types. However, few people have heard of tumors in the heart. Why is the heart so powerful that it is not prone to tumors?

Is it true that there are no tumors in the heart?

. Related to the structure of the heart

Cancer originates from mutations in epithelial tissue. As cancer cells gradually proliferate, malignant tumors develop. epithelial tissue is distributed in many organs throughout the body, such as liver, kidney, prostate, endometrium and breast, etc., as well as the genitourinary tract, respiratory tract and digestive tract, which are all covered with epithelial tissue. Any area covered by epithelial tissue may become cancerous, thereby inducing cancer. However, the heart is not covered by epithelial tissue and is composed of myocardial tissue, so it will not become cancerous.

. Related to heart function

The heart beats all the time, transporting fresh blood to every part of the body and nourishing various tissues, organs and cells. Even if the blood contains metastasized cancer cells, the cancer cells will not implant in the heart because the blood is constantly flowing.

3. Related to the purification effect

The heart and blood vessels form a closed circulatory system, and they circulate with each other. Because the space is closed, it can protect the heart and avoid invasion by external substances. In addition, the body is protected by skin and mucous membranes. The lungs, liver and kidneys can purify harmful substances and prevent carcinogens from invading the heart, so heart cancer rarely occurs.

What kind of tumor is heart tumor ?

Cardiac tumors are rare and have a very low incidence rate. There are two types of cardiac tumors. One is primary cardiac tumors, most of which are benign tumors , such as lipoma and myxoma. There are also a small number that are malignant, such as sarcoma , which easily occurs in every part of the heart; one is secondary cardiac tumors, which are malignant tumors growing in other parts that metastasize to the heart, especially melanoma . In addition, lung cancer, breast cancer, lymphoma and leukemia are also prone to metastasis to the heart.

What foods to eat can keep away from heart disease

The heart is the most important member of our body's organs. We must pay attention to heart health and eat more foods that are good for heart health every day.

In order to study the relationship between eating habits and heart disease, an Italian research team once conducted experiments and concluded that eating less animal protein and salt and focusing on plant foods, especially beans, can Effectively prevent heart disease.

Scientists recommend eating 714 grams of beans a week instead of red meat; using vegetable oils instead of animal oils in cooking, such as olive oil, peanut oil and soybean oil; eating 400 grams of fresh fruits and vegetables and about 28 grams of nuts every day; low glycemic index foods and whole grains , eat less highly processed foods, drink an appropriate amount of coffee and tea every day, which can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease; drink an appropriate amount of milk, yogurt, cheese, etc., can help regulate the balance of intestinal flora and protect heart health; eat about 8.5 grams a day dark chocolate is also good for heart health.

At the same time, The American Heart Association also recommends that our diet can be based on plants. Unprocessed foods, such as vegetables and grains, are good for the body if we consume more of them every day.

A message from a doctor

This does not mean that the heart will not suffer from cancer, but the incidence is extremely low. The symptoms of cardiac tumors are not very obvious. Some patients will experience physical fatigue, weight loss, joint pain, fever, etc., sometimes accompanied by irregular heartbeat , difficulty breathing, and chest discomfort. All in all, as long as you have any heart discomfort, you should go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination as soon as possible to rule out the possibility of heart tumors. At the same time, you should take good care of your heart and strictly control your intake of cholesterol, sugar, and salt.
