Smart Choices for the Anticancer Elements
The number of female cancers has increased sharply, partly in connection with the aging of the population. Thanks to immense progress in screening and treatment, the majority of cancers are curable today. In addition, prevention behaviors are better known and, even if none of them can alone guarantee the fight against cancer, their association has a definite protective effect.
The risk of being affected largely depends on lifestyle (so-called "internal" factors linked to lifestyles), but also on places of life and work (so-called "external" factors linked to the environment). However, some people may be at greater risk than others, especially those who have already developed cancer and those whose immediate family has had cancer. There are indeed genes predisposing to cancer. For the Anticancer elements, use of steroids happens to be quite important.
Getting informed to better prevent female cancers
Breast cancer, the most common
In women, breast cancer is by far the most common with some 58,500 new cases estimated in 2018. Other female cancers do not arrive until well after: colorectal (20,000 female cases estimated in 2018) and lung (15,000 estimated in 2018). In addition, each year, approximately 5,200 women develop ovarian cancer, 2,900 cervical cancer, 8,200 endometrial (body of the womb) cancer, and 7,600 skin cancer. (melanoma). In terms of mortality, lung cancer, which is growing rapidly, is on the heels of breast cancer and could become the main cause of cancer death in women in the near future.
What are the risk factors for female cancers?
Age matters, since more than 50% of breast cancers appear after 65 years. A family history, early periods and late menopause also play a role. Finally, the absence of pregnancy before age 35, smoking and alcohol, are also implicated in breast cancer. Not surprisingly, obesity and the consumption of alcoholic beverages are also a risk factor common to all female cancers.
Risk factors for female cancers
- Cigarette consumption
Smoking increases the risk of cervical cancer by 2 to 5, with a dose effect (the more you smoke, the more this risk increases). Beyond one pack per day, this risk is multiplied by 4.
Smoking is of course the main risk factor for lung cancer, but it also increases the risk of many other cancers.
- Consumption of alcoholic beverages
Alcohol increases the risk of all types of cancer. All cancers combined, it is believed to be involved in 4.5% of female cancers.
- Consumption of saturated fat
There appears to be a link between saturated fat and breast cancer, but it is difficult to prove it, even though statistical surveys support it. A diet high in red meats and cold meats appears to increase the risk of colon cancer.
Extra pounds
More than one in five cancers is linked to being overweight. Obesity not only increases the risk of cancer death, it also increases the severity of breast cancer. This is explained by the release by the fatty tissue of growth factors of tumor cells and estrogens (female sex hormones), which promote the growth of so-called “hormone-dependent” cancers.
Exposure to ultraviolet rays
Excessive exposure to the sun or tanning equipment is responsible for skin cancer (melanoma), which is increasing in number.
