Long-term overwork increases the risk of lymphoma

The cause of lymphoma is still unclear, but what is certain is that irregular living habits, long-term fatigue and excessive stress will greatly increase people's risk of developing lymphoma.

The lymphatic system is an important defense system of the human body. It can produce white blood cells and antibodies, filter out pathogens, and participate in immune responses. It causes a lot of consumption when fighting foreign pathogens and usually recovers at night when the body sleeps.

Especially for young people, whose immune systems are in the process of development, they need to constantly adapt to changes in the external environment. If the human body is under mental and physical fatigue and stress, the immune function will be greatly reduced. At the same time, excessive fatigue will lead to blood overdraft. Due to some compensatory mechanism, the lymphatic system needs to automatically adjust and supplement, resulting in unlimited lymph proliferation and increased risk of cancer.

Therefore, in daily life, we should combine work and rest, avoid overwork, avoid staying up late for a long time, ensure about 8 hours of sleep, and work hours should not be too tight. Make sure to have a certain amount of time each week to go outdoors for appropriate activities to exercise the body and adjust the mood.

In other aspects, you should quit smoking and limit alcohol consumption, eat a balanced diet, reduce the intake of spicy food, avoid food that is too cold, too hot, or too salty, and eat more fruits, vegetables, beans, and fungi.
