Ways to Prevent Stomach Cancer
  • Cancer cells usually begin in the inner lining of
    your stomach with stomach cancer, also known as
    gastric cancer. As cancer progresses, they grow
    further into your stomach walls. Stomach cancer
    can affect everyone, but some demographic
    variables may enhance your chances. If you have a
    family history of stomach cancer
  • You're 65 years old or more
  • You were born with a male gender
  • East Asian, South or Central American, or Eastern
    European is your ethnic heritage
  • About stomach cancer
  • Stomach cancer is caused by an abnormal growth
    rate and mutation in stomach cells. Depending on
    the type of stomach cancer, the health
    consequences and physical symptoms a person
    may encounter will differ. The best treatment
    option will be determined by where the cancer
    started and whether it has spread to other places
    of your body.
  • Cancerous cells are generally seen inside
    the stomach's innermost lining, or mucosa,
    in newly diagnosed stomach cancer patients. This
    type of stomach cancer is known as
    adenocarcinoma, and it is the most frequent
    type of stomach cancer, accounting for
    almost 90 to 95 of all stomach cancer
    cases.
  • A risk factor is anything that raises a person's
    chances of having an illness a protective factor
    is anything that reduces a person's chances of
    developing a disease. Some cancer risk factors
    can be prevented, but others cannot. While there
    is no guaranteed way to prevent stomach cancer,
    there

are steps you may take to reduce your risk.

  • Ways to prevent stomach cancer
  • Being overweight or obese raises your risk of
    certain types of stomach cancer therefore,
    achieving and maintaining a healthy weight may
    help. Regular physical activity may also assist
    in reducing the incidence of stomach cancer.
    Aside from the potential implications on
    stomach cancer risk, maintaining a healthy
    weight and staying active can help you avoid a
    variety of other malignancies and health issues.
  • Some ways to prevent stomach cancer are
  • Not smoking
  • Smoking can raise the risk of upper stomach
    cancer (the portion closest to the oesophagus).
    Tobacco use also raises the risk of a variety of
    other cancers.
  • H pylori infection treatment
  • It's unclear if people with chronically diseased
    stomach linings but no symptoms should be treated
    with antibiotics. This is a current research
    topic. According to research, giving antibiotics
    to persons with H pylori infection may reduce the
    number of precancerous lesions in the stomach and
    minimise the risk of stomach cancer. However,
    this has not been found in all investigations.
  • While it's unclear if everyone with H pylori
    should be treated, some evidence suggests that
    treating people with H pylori is also at a higher
    risk for stomach cancer for other reasons, such
    as having a close relative with stomach cancer
    may be beneficial.
  • Increase your fruit consumption
  • Make sure to incorporate plenty of fresh fruits
    and veggies in each meal. This may reduce your
    risk of developing stomach cancer. Citrus
    fruits like oranges, lemons, and grapefruit
    are excellent choices. However, you should check
    with your doctor to see if grapefruit will affect
    any medications you're on.

some of those treatments should not be used to
prevent stomach cancer as they have chances of

    doctor who can advise you on the best course of
    action.
  • Reduce your alcohol consumption
  • Since it lowers testosterone and boosts
    oestrogen levels, excessive alcohol
    consumption may increase your risk of
    stomach cancer. Having more than three
    drinks each day is considered excessive
    drinking. As a result, reducing your
    alcohol consumption is important to
    preventing stomach cancer.
  • Maintain a healthy weight
  • Maintaining a healthy body weight for your
    height and gender can assist in reducing
    your risk. Regular physical activity and a diet
    that promotes general health might help you feel
    better mentally and emotionally.
  • Although many risk factors can be avoided, it's
    vital to know that avoiding them doesn't
    guarantee you won't acquire cancer. Furthermore,
    most persons who have a certain cancer risk
    factor do not develop the disease. Some people
    are more sensitive to cancer-causing causes than
    others. Consult your cancer doctor in Delhi, NCR,
    about cancer prevention strategies that might
    work for you.
