As we all know, diseases like cancer are becoming more and more common for peopleAttentionThe point of gravity, as you get older,Many people, especially some elders, are becoming more worried, and their health is declining day by day, and diseases are often coming to their door.
Sometimes, the elderly people around me are already very old next year, but they are still in good health, and they are hardly bothered by any serious diseases, and even cancer has not been affected.
And some middle-aged people, who are obviously young and strong, are plagued by various diseases early, and even the shadow of cancer often hangs over their heads.What is it that causes some people to be less susceptible to cancer, while others get sick more often?
As a doctor, I have found that people who are not prone to cancer generally have some characteristics in their body that may not be the decisive factor.However, they can often have a potential positive impact on the body's immunity, metabolic level, lifestyle and other aspects.
So, what are the lifestyle habits or physical traits of those with these characteristics that make their journey to the fight against cancer more smooth?
Many people may feel that cancer is far away from them.I always feel like, "As long as I stay in a good mood, try to avoid stress, and eat a healthy diet, it's pretty much the same." ”
In fact, a regular routine can really make your immune system function normally, and sleep may seem to have little to do with cancer, but it is the key to our body's self-repair.
There is a male patient about forty years old, he has the habit of being a night owl since he was young, he has to play until two or three o'clock in the morning every night, and he still drinks coffee desperately to refresh himself when he works during the day the next day.In the long run, the quality of life deteriorated dramatically, and finally the diagnosis of stomach cancer and lung cancer coexisted.
The doctor's explanation is quite succinct:This lifestyle causes the immune system in the body to be in a state of disorder for a long time, and it is difficult to effectively eliminate cancer cells.Eventually, cancer was induced.
Comparatively, patients who are able to go to bed at a regular time each day seem to have a lower risk of cancer.
I once came into contact with a female patient in her sixties, who had few major problems with her body, although she was not particularly particular about her diet.But she has a habit of going to bed at ten o'clock every night and waking up around seven in the morning, and has maintained it for decades.
This habit seems simple, but it is the key to her fight against cancer, and research has proved,Regular sleep helps our body repair itself, especially cells, at night.It can effectively prevent the growth of cancer cells.
People who are chronically sleep deprived have their immune system's cell repair function suppressed, which greatly increases the probability of cancer.
SoNo matter how busy you are right now, go to bed at ten o'clock at night and get seven to eight hours of deep sleep, which definitely has a non-negligible effect on your health.
The negative impact of long-term psychological stress on the human body has long been a recognized fact in the medical community.Stress causes the body to secrete large amounts of stress hormones, and high levels of these hormones can make our immune system less functionaland even induce various chronic diseases.
There was a middle-aged male patient who was very busy with his work, and the high-pressure work environment day after day left him with little time to care for his body.
Work stress not only affects his mood, but also makes his immune system very fragile.As a result, during a physical examination, I found out that I had esophageal cancer.
The doctor explained,In a state of long-term high stress, the chronic inflammatory response in the body is not effectively alleviated, but it allows cancer cells to take advantage of it.
Conversely, those who were able to maintain a relaxed and happy mood had a much lower incidence of cancer.
thereforeReducing long-term mental stress and learning to relax yourself can help you stay away from cancer.Avoiding excessive work stress and mood swings and keeping your body in a relatively relaxed, natural state is very important for cancer prevention.
When it comes to sports, many people may think: "If you have time to run, you might as well use it for work, which is both time-saving and practical." ”
But you may not realize thatThe role of exercise in preventing cancer goes far beyond what we normally think.Studies have shown that moderate physical activity can not only promote metabolism, but also prevent cancer by strengthening the body's blood circulation and enhancing immunity.
There was a patient who was usually busy with work and had little time to exercise, and it was not until he was diagnosed with colon cancer that the doctor reminded him,If he had done more moderate physical activity in the early days, he might have been able to detect the abnormalities of his body in advance.Or reduce the risk of cancer by boosting your immunity.
After treatment, he decided to change his lifestyle, insisting on a brisk walk for an hour every morning, and doing some simple stretching and yoga movements in the evening.His body gradually recovered, his weight stabilized, his immunity improved significantly, and the chance of cancer recurrence was greatly reduced.
Many people ignore that proper physical activity is not just about building muscle and weight,More importantly, it helps us maintain the normal level of the endocrine system and strengthens the immune system's ability to fight diseases.
Whether it's brisk walking, swimming, or tai chi, moderate exercise can effectively promote blood circulation.Improves the metabolic function of organs so that cancer cells cannot grow in the body.
Therefore, maintaining appropriate physical activity, at least three to five times a week, for more than 30 minutes each time, can effectively reduce the risk of cancer, especially for the prevention of some common cancers, such as colon cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, etc., the effect is particularly significant.
The details of life often determine the health status of the body, so let's start from the daily routine, diet, mentality, exercise and other aspects, and take care of our body in a meticulous way, in order to better prevent cancer.
Cancer prevention is not an overnight process, but a long-term and meticulous process.Through good living habits, appropriate exercise, and reasonable diet, maintain a positive and optimistic attitude,Not only can we greatly reduce the risk of cancer, but we can also improve our overall health.
Every small change can become a line of defense against cancer, after all, physical health is not some uncontrollable fate, but the result of the choices that each of us can choose in our daily lives.
As long as we treat ourselves prudently and give enough care to our bodies, cancer may be prohibitive, and I hope everyone cherishes their health and lives their best lives.
