Produktbeschreibung
Cancer is abnormal cell growth with the potential to become malignant. Not all tumours are cancerous; they can be benign (non-destroying) or malignant (cancerous). While benign tumours remain localised, malignant tumours spread, causing metastasis and tissue damage. Cancer is a major global health threat, with 18.1 million new cases expected by 2020. This represents the grief of countless families and communities who lose loved ones. Current escalating risk factors, such as pollution and unhealthy lifestyles, are predicted to increase cancer deaths by 47% by 2040 compared to 2020, underscoring the need for effective preventive measures. Factors that increase the risk of cancer include exposure to chemicals, unhealthy habits, genetics and the presence of free radicals that damage DNA. However, our bodies defend themselves against these radicals with antioxidants, which are abundant in natural foods. Understanding which foods have anti-cancer properties is crucial. This book takes an in-depth look at understanding cancer, its risk factors, and the preventive and therapeutic potential of certain foods.
