What foods can prevent laryngeal cancer?

Cancer is very common in our lives. I believe everyone has heard a lot about laryngeal cancer, so many people are worried about getting this disease. We all know that the main reason for getting laryngeal cancer is that we do not protect our throats well in our daily lives. So if you want to stay away from this disease, you should take precautions against it in your life, such as quitting smoking and drinking, adjusting your diet scientifically, etc. Let us summarize some effective ways to stay away from laryngeal cancer.

1. Don’t drink alcohol

Long-term heavy drinking causes congestion and edema in the throat, and leads to malnutrition and low immune function, laying the foundation for the formation of cancer.

2. No smoking

Prevent laryngeal cancer. Smoking can directly damage the organ and cause laryngeal cancer. The longer you smoke, the higher the incidence of laryngeal cancer. Nicotine, coal tar and benzopyrene produced in cigarettes are all carcinogens.

3. Stay away from chemical carcinogens

Chemical carcinogens related to laryngeal cancer include sulfur dioxide, chromium, arsenic, etc. The living and production environment is polluted by air. Inhaling the above harmful gases and dust will damage the throat, so protection must be done.

4. Prevent the harm of bad eating habits

To prevent laryngeal cancer, some people often eat hot pot, malatang and other stimulating foods with friends regardless of winter or summer. Such long-term eating habits are harmful not only to the throat, but also to the eyes, trachea, lungs, esophagus, stomach, etc., which can not only cause diseases, but also worsen and form cancer.

5. Be cautious when exposed to radiation

Radiation is a carcinogen. When the neck is examined or treated multiple times or in large doses, it is necessary to protect it from damage, otherwise it will create conditions for the formation of laryngeal cancer. In normal times, radiation examinations should be reduced as much as possible.

6. Pay attention to precancerous lesions

Prevention of laryngeal cancer: laryngeal leukoplakia is a precancerous lesion of laryngeal cancer. It is a white patch on the mucosa of the vocal cords due to poor keratinization of the mucosal epithelium. It is a pathological change caused by upper respiratory tract infection, smoking, harmful gas stimulation, excessive use of voice, etc. It is closely related to the formation of laryngeal cancer and must be actively prevented and treated. In addition, laryngeal keratosis, chronic hypertrophic laryngitis, papilloma, etc., should be closely observed and actively prevented and treated.

The above introduces some methods to stay away from laryngeal cancer. I hope everyone will pay more attention to it in daily life. If you want to keep yourself away from laryngeal cancer, in addition to quitting smoking and drinking and adjusting your diet scientifically, you should also stay away from carcinogenic chemicals, avoid exposure to radioactive rays, actively treat various throat diseases, and go to regular hospitals for regular check-ups. This will greatly reduce the chance of developing this disease and keep you healthy.
