Avoiding Cancer part1
Did you know that according to a study,80-90% of cancers are caused by lifestyle & environment? Believe you me, that's the case!
More so, there are approx.250 different kinds of cancers to complicate the issue.
A Tulane Medical Center, U.S.A ,study noted that people living within a mile radius of chemical industrial plants were ten times more likely to get lung cancers. Bladder cancers are often associated with employment in industrial occupations,particularly in the chemical, car & engineering manufacturing sector.
Actually,I guess many people around the globe don't know how cancers are named, unless one is a doctor or an expert in a medical field. They are named according to where they begin. Check this out:
1.Sarcomas-involves the cells of the bones and cartilage.
2.Carcinomas-affects the cells of lining tissues to body cavities & organs.
3.Leukaemia-invades bone marrow & lymph nodes.
4.Lymphomas-cancers forming in lymphatic tissue.
But of course, other major types of cancers have further subdivisions.
