What causes pancreatic cancer

summary

Some time ago, a colleague of our company lived irregularly and was found to have pancreatic cancer. So our colleagues visited her several times and found that she was getting weaker and weaker. Today, let me talk about the causes of pancreatic cancer.

What causes pancreatic cancer

First: smoking: nitrosamines in smoke are carcinogens. After inhalation, they are transported to the liver by blood and activated. They are discharged into the bile and then counter flow into the pancreatic duct. In addition, smoking can increase blood lipid concentration, indirectly increase the risk of cancer. The incidence of pancreatic cancer in smokers was 2-2.5 times higher than that in non-smokers, and the age of onset increased by 10-15 years. Diet: many studies have found that high fat and high protein diets, especially animal fat and protein, increase the incidence rate of pancreatic cancer.

Second: coffee: Based on the analysis of the relationship between age adjusted mortality of different types of cancer and annual consumption of smoking, tea and coffee in many countries, it is suggested that pancreatic cancer in men is positively correlated with coffee intake, while that in women is positively correlated with coffee intake. Fewer fruits and vegetables can increase the incidence rate of pancreatic cancer. In addition, fried meat can also increase the incidence rate.

Third, it may be related to drinking, pollution, chronic pancreatitis, diabetes, cholelithiasis and cholecystectomy, gastrointestinal diseases, genetic abnormalities and endocrine factors. We should eat less high animal protein, high-fat diet; we should ensure a reasonable combination of meat, eggs, vegetables, fruits and grains in the diet. We should not be picky or partial to food. We should eat less fried, fried and roasted food, and eat more coarse grains, vegetables and fruits.
