From 1989 to 2018, the highest-growth cancer in my country was "cutaneous cancer", with a data of 700%. The World Health Organization International Cancer Research Institute global cancer data in 2020 showed that 560,000 new cases of colorectal cancer in my country, ranking second in the number of malignant tumors. 290,000 people died of colorectal cancer that year. The cancer rate of colorectal cancer in cities is significantly higher than that in rural areas.
Overall, there are two trends:
First, colorectal cancer is discovered late , and many people do not detect it until the middle and late stages;
Second, it is developing towards younger age, which should be common in the age of 40, and there are more and more cases in the age of 20s and 30s.
medically has not fully understood the specific causes of colorectal cancer. Commonly recognized factors include heredity, environment, eating habits, etc. But it can make a cancer that is rarely heard of in the past so high in the short term that people are generally accustomed to looking for reasons in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, and soon set their sights on "takeout".
Takeout has developed rapidly in recent years. As long as the conditions are available, takeout has gradually appeared. Takeout is favored by the middle-aged and young people with the breakthrough point. However, eating takeout for a long time has several obvious hidden dangers:
. Mainly starch-based staple food, the proportion of fresh vegetables is low, and green leafy vegetables are insufficient, which not only increases blood sugar, but also causes insufficient dietary fiber and affects vitamin intake.
. The food ingredients are single, protein is not enough, the nutrition is not up to standard, and it is not too hungry. Some office workers often prepare snacks to satisfy their hunger.
. Made in batches, the freshness of raw materials and ingredients cannot be guaranteed, the oil content is high, there is a problem of unreasonable fatty acid ratio, and there is a high risk of microorganisms exceeding the standard.
Many people believe that eating takeaway for a long time will have the most impact on the digestive system. Gastrointestinal problems gradually appear, inducing inflammation and polyps in the intestines, opening up the road to advancement towards intestinal cancer. It sounds reasonable, isn't it?
study shows that 80-95% of colorectal cancers evolved from intestinal polyps and . The whole process takes more than 5 years, but individual differences are different. Intestinal polyps are most common in the large intestine area, and bumpy lesions appear in the intestinal mucosa. There are two types:
One is inflammatory polyps , which is caused by intestinal hyperplastic inflammation, and the chance of malignancy turning into intestinal cancer is very small.
Another type is adenoma polyps , which belongs to precancerous lesion , and is divided into three types: tubular adenoma , villous adenoma and mixed adenoma. The lesion rate of tubular adenoma is about 1%-5%, and the carcinogenesis rate of villous adenoma is more than 10 times that of tubular adenoma.
causes adenomatous polyps, or the causes of precancerous intestinal lesions, the identified causes include heredity, repeated irritation of chronic inflammation, bad living habits, long-term constipation or diarrhea.
But hereditary intestinal cancer usually occurs after the age of forty or fifty. As the intestinal cancer gradually becomes younger, intestinal cancer occurs in the age of 20 or 30, which is basically inseparable from the influence of intestinal inflammation and bad living habits. For example:
, long-term improper diet structure , excessive intake of high-fat and high-protein foods, and too little plant food, resulting in a long-term lack of vitamins, carotene , cellulose, etc., and the intestines cannot decompose and absorb too much protein and fat, which will become a catalyst for intestinal cancer.
. Regularly eat barbecue, fried or smoked foods . Their common point is that they can quickly arouse appetite, but the benzopyrene and the amine A type are important inducing factors for colorectal cancer.
. There is long-term inflammation in the intestine tract, and the risk of developing bowel cancer is also increased.
, obesity, staying up late, irregular work and rest, tobacco and alcohol, and other factors reduces immunity, stimulates abnormal proliferation of intestinal mucosa, and creates conditions for intestinal cancer.
Therefore, effectively blocking the factors that may cause intestinal polyps and induce colorectal cancer is a problem that we need to pay close attention to and correct. In this sense, if you can avoid taking , you will not eat, and if you can eat less, you will eat less .
For office workers, instead of eating takeout every day, it is better to prepare food at home and bring it to the unit. If the unit has heating equipment , heat it, and if it does not have one, use an insulating container. At least the food at the source is guaranteed.
In order to eliminate the high-risk factors of bowel cancer, this is also necessary:
. Regular screening with colonoscopy , and the tube is for at least 5 years. Intestinal polyps should be removed at the right time, and people over 50 years old should be screened.
. Polyps will recur. It is not a one-time solution after removal of polyps. You must do a regular review of .
. People with high risk of colorectal cancer , including family history of colorectal cancer, personal cancer history, intestinal polyposis, long-term constipation or diarrhea, and mucus and bloody stools, please pay attention to early screening.
. If you have a history of biliary disease and have removed gallbladder or appendix , you should pay attention to checking regularly.
In short, if you want to reduce and avoid bowel cancer, you must develop healthy eating habits, maintain a healthy lifestyle, and conduct serious screening for bowel cancer.
