Irritation And Cancer

Consistent Irritation And Cancer

It is accepted that there is impending threat of cancer for every human being. There is fear of cancer in everybody’s mind. There are many reasons for this fear. The fact is that the disease is likely to be life threatening more often than not. The sufferings due to the disease are normally very severe. The treatment is not yet fully proved and at times the treatment makes sufferer more miserable than the disease itself.   Apart from these, the main reason behind the fear is that majority of us know very little about the enemy, its mode and reasons for attack and what precautions we should take so as to reduce our chances of getting cancer to minimum.

Nobody can learn to swim by reading books. The knowledge or actually the information available on internet is vast, but for a person not connected with medical field, this information rather adds to confusion than giving a solution. Most of us cannot understand basic medical terms, and when we read these topics without understanding terminology, and then it is like driving a car with the help of GPS giving instructions in a language unknown to us.

There can be many reasons and causes of Cancer. When we read various causes of cancer, we find one thing common in most of the cancers. Every Cancer cause is associated with ‘IRRITATION’. Constant irritation over longer duration of any particular body part can be the cause for Cancer.

·         Tobacco is the foremost cause of various cancers. Smoking causes irritation to lungs and other parts of respiratory system. Smoking tobacco regularly for many years increases probability of getting cancer of respiratory tract, and of lungs by many folds.

·         Chewing tobacco causes oral cancer, esophageal cancer, and pancreatic cancer. Those who chew tobacco keep tobacco under their tongue or lips for long time causing irritation to oral cavity, esophagus.

·         Obesity is major cause of cancers of the esophagus, colon and rectum, pancreas, breast, endometrium, and kidneys. Obesity burdens these organs excessively, causing constant pressure and irritation.

·          Alcohol increases the risk of cancers of the mouth, pharynx, larynx, esophagus, colon and rectum, and breast; and also causes cirrhosis, which raises the risk of liver cancer. A neat shot of any alcohol can give exact idea of the irritation it must be causing to the inner lining of digestive systems. Cirrhosis is caused as ultimately the alcohol one consumes gets broken down in liver.

·         Red meat and processed meat were convincingly linked to colorectal cancer. These foods are very tough to digest. They put extra burden on our digestive and excretory system. This constant irritation leads to cancer of various parts of alimentary canal.

·         Radiation causes skin cancer and exposure to radioactivity in high doses can cause cell-mutation leading to cancer.

·         Harmful chemicals, industrial pollutants, synthetic materials and proved carcinogenic substances are also predominantly source of irritation to body organs that get exposed to them. The prolonged exposure can lead to cancer.

There are many other reasons and causes for cancer. Some are understood and some are yet to be understood, but we can safely say long exposure to ‘Irritants’ can cause cancer.

We should take whatever precautions we can to reduce the chances of getting Cancer.

No one needs to be told what is healthy for oneself. Everybody is aware of what is necessary for maintaining perfectly healthy body. What one needs is ‘Realization’.

This ‘Realization’ can be achieved by us sharing our knowledge, ideas and experiences.
