The earliest age group for gastric cancer onset

Gastric cancer first occurs between the ages of ten and twenty. Gastric cancer in this age group may be caused by genetic factors and special diseases. In particular, regional gastric cancer is a high-incidence area, which may be due to geographical factors, eating habits, especially aflatoxin disease or aflatoxin-contaminated food, which can easily induce gastric cancer after long-term entry into the body.

1. Eat high-salt foods frequently.

High salt is the number one killer of gastric cancer. After consuming too much salt, the high osmotic pressure of salt will directly affect the gastric mucosa. Our common high-salt foods include pickled foods, such as kimchi, pickled meat, various nitrite cooked foods and various salty seasonings.

2. Smoking and drinking.

The incidence of gastric cancer increases significantly in people who smoke for a long time. The older the age of smoking, the higher the incidence of gastric cancer. Smoking has carcinogenic and cancer-promoting effects on the stomach. Long-term drinking has a synergistic effect with other factors that cause gastric cancer.

3. Genetic factors.

Most retrospective survey materials believe that the role of genetic factors in the etiology of gastric cancer has an obvious tendency to cluster in families.
