subject: Eight Measures To Prevent Gastric Cancer [print this page]


Gastric cancer is one of common malignant tumors, the incidence rate among the first types of tumors. Gastric cancer is indeed a serious threat to people's health diseases. Gastric cancer can occur at any age, but more common 40 to 60 years, more men than women is about 2:1. Although the etiology of gastric cancer has not been fully identified, but a large number of data indicate that environmental factors, dietary habits, precancerous lesions and genetic factors are closely related. The following eight to introduce preventive measures.

(1) eat or not eat pickles

Pickled vegetables contain a large number of nitrite and secondary amines, optimum pH or bacteria in the stomach under the influence of nitrosamine compounds can be synthesized, these compounds are highly carcinogenic. So food should be fresh, to promote the refrigerator.

(2) do not eat or eat smoked and fried food

Smoked fish and bacon contain large amounts of carcinogenic substances, such as benzopyrene and aromatic 3-4. Fried, baked, burnt food and re-use of such high-temperature cooking oil also contain cancer-causing substances, consumption should be minimized.

(3) do not eat moldy food

Often encountered in daily life, moldy food, moldy mold is caused by pollution, mold, some are toxin-producing fungi, is highly carcinogenic, while some of the food in the role of toxin-producing fungi produce large amounts of nitrite and secondary amines, into the body under certain conditions, the stomach can be synthesized compounds and carcinogenic nitrosamines.

(4) no smoking, less drinking

Smoking and gastric cancer have a certain relationship, smoke contains benzopyrene, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, dibenzo carbazole carcinogenic or cancer-promoting substances, and other, is one of the causes of esophageal cancer and gastric cancer. Although it is not alcohol itself, carcinogenic substances, but the potent cocktail to stimulate the gastric mucosa, mucosal tissue damage and promote the absorption of carcinogens, if the alcohol while smoking, the greater danger. Because alcohol can enhance the permeability of cell membranes, thereby strengthening the absorption of carcinogens in smoke.

(5) to develop good eating habits

If the diet from time to time quantitative, overeating, eating too fast too hot, an injury to the stomach is stimulated, and the incidence of gastric cancer have a certain relationship. Meanwhile, large amount of salt intake, meals and gastric cancer have a good relationship sulking.

(6) Eat more fresh vegetables and fruits

Eat vitamin A, B, E in food, adequate protein intake strengthened to facilitate the protection of gastric mucosa.

(7) to protect the health of drinking water

Because the contaminated water contains a variety of carcinogenic metal ions, so be sure to use regular tap water, to make use of well water in rural areas.

(8) aggressive treatment of precancerous lesions

Atrophic gastritis and gastric cancer are more closely related, is the precancerous lesion; by the malignant transformation of gastric ulcers in 5-10%; gastric cancer with multiple adenomatous polyps more common than solitary polyps, polyps showed a diameter greater than 2cm malignant tendency; pernicious anemia and gastric cancer have a certain relationship. So suffering from atrophic gastritis, gastric ulcer, multiple gastric adenomatous polyps, pernicious anemia, must often go to the hospital for examination and treatment, eliminate precancerous lesions, prevention of gastric cancer.
