Stay away from these three things and you will never get lung cancer

In the terrible kingdom of cancer, lung cancer has quietly become the boss. It is a relatively common malignant tumor worldwide, ranking first in the number of new cases and deaths each year. And its influence is constantly expanding, especially in China, where the incidence rate is still rising. Ding Dang adjusted her glasses... "The situation is really serious."

Why is lung cancer the boss?

The first is genetic factors. It is certainly not the case that "like father and son, like daughter, like daughter, lung cancer is passed down from parents to their children", but it does have a genetic tendency and there is a certain family clustering phenomenon.

Secondly, environmental factors also play a very important role in the incidence of lung cancer.

Many people are exposed to harmful substances for a long time due to their occupations, and their risk of lung cancer is higher than that of the general population. For example, workers in thermal power plants are exposed to tar, soot and other substances that can cause lung cancer for a long time. If they do not strengthen their occupational protection, the possibility of inducing lung cancer is very high.

Ding Dang knows what you want to say: "I'm not a power plant worker..."

But this does not mean that lung cancer will not find you, because there are three kinds of anger in life that may cause you to develop lung cancer.

Cigarette smoke

Smoking is recognized worldwide as the most important factor in causing lung cancer. Second-hand smoke and third-hand smoke can also increase the risk of lung cancer.

The more you smoke and the longer you smoke, the greater your risk of lung cancer.

"If a man doesn't smoke, he has lived in vain." Anyone who insists on this view and keeps "puffing out smoke" is simply an advocate for lung cancer!

In addition to harming oneself, secondhand smoke caused by smoking may also cause lung cancer to one's family and friends.

In recent decades, the incidence of lung cancer among men in developed countries in Europe and the United States has shown a downward trend, and tobacco control has played an indispensable role in this. This also proves that the view that "smoking causes cancer" is correct.

Polluted "atmosphere"

Air pollution is another major cause of lung cancer, and the pattern of its occurrence is also very obvious:

The incidence of lung cancer is higher among residents of densely populated cities than among residents in rural areas.

The more serious the air pollution, the higher the incidence and mortality of lung cancer.

Therefore, make some demands on the environment in which you live.

Kitchen fumes

Coal smoke pollution and oil fume pollution are important reasons for increasing the risk of lung cancer in women.

1. Coal smoke pollution mainly comes from families burning honeycomb coal. The carcinogens released by indoor coal burning are many times more than smoking. As urbanization continues, this type of pollution has gradually decreased.

2. Oil fume pollution. When frying or stir-frying food, the fumes formed by high-temperature cooking oil contain a large amount of carcinogens, such as benzopyrene.

In China, many women cook in the kitchen for a long time and are exposed to coal smoke or high-temperature oil smoke. Their risk of lung cancer is higher than that of other people.

We can't afford to offend, but we can hide

In general, the above three types of gas are relatively important risk factors for lung cancer. But fortunately, it can be changed through hard work.

The best way to deal with smoking is to quit smoking, which benefits both you and others.

To address air pollution, the government needs to take vigorous efforts to control pollution. For individuals, the most direct measure is to wear a mask when the air quality is poor.

As for oil fumes, on the one hand, we need to improve our cooking methods and try to reduce cooking methods such as frying, stir-frying, and stir-frying. On the other hand, we can choose to improve the stoves and try to install kitchen appliances with a higher oil fume extraction rate, such as integrated stoves.
