Make the man who became an office worker or the bloggers who daily spend time sitting behind a desk working beware because you are a higher risk for prostate cancer compared with your colleagues who work in outdoor / field. Sitting for hours behind a desk was able to increase the risk of prostate cancer, physical activity and consumption of fruits and vegetables can help reduce the risk.
This conclusion is based on research conducted by scientists in England. The research team the University of Athens tried to analyse the relationship between levels of physical activity at work and the growth of tumor Researchers analysed320 prostate cancer patients and compared with a group of healthy men. All the participants then were asked about their typical work. Revealed that men who work as employees, teachers or office workers at greater risk than those who spent more time standing or moving to and fro like a factory worker, postman, barbers and bakers.
The findings, published in European Journal of Cancer Prevention was also revealed that men who daily work in the office can be settled in 30 percent higher risk of prostate cancer and 40 percent higher can experience a condition called benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH).
Every man who entered the age of 45 years can potentially have an enlarged prostate gland. If enlargement occurs redundantly to swell for citrus fruit, the effect can suppress the flow of urine through the urethra, the condition known as BPH.
BPH cases estimated to occur to approximately 15 percent of men aged 40 years and 60 percent of men aged 50 years. Although not life threatening, usually the patient will be treated with surgery. Every year in England there are 32 000 cases of prostate cancer that caused the deaths of about 10,000 people. This risk increases with age. As a precautionary measure, the researchers suggest that regular exercise in order to reduce the risk of prostate cancer.
Lead researcher Dr Areti Lagiou, physical activity was never included in the category factor for prostate cancer prevention. "Evidence shows the benefits of sport as one of the protectors of prostate cancer," he said. Scientific studies conducted Britain's Institute of Food Research suggested that a diet rich in broccoli could inhibit the growth of tumor cells and other chronic diseases. This conclusion is also supported by recent studies of the medical team from Japan, which reported that eating fruits and vegetables can lower the risk of developing cancer, particularly esophageal cancer (esophagus).
Studies conducted by the Japanese Health Ministry is to analyze that 39 000 men aged 45-74 years. After eight years, 116 participants were detected as esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), a common type of cancer found in men in the land of the Rising Sun.
Division Head Epedemiology and Prevention of Disease in Japan's National Cancer Center, Shoichiro Tsugane suspect that conditions related to smoking and drink alcoholic beverages. In the study participants divided into three man group, concluded that those who ate the most fruits and vegetables lower risk of nearly half the affected esophageal SCC compared with group of men who ate vegetables at least.
Researchers suggest increased consumption of fruits and vegetables 100 grams per day, a useful lower incidence of esophageal SCC risk by 11 percent. The types of vegetables that are recommended are cabbage and cauliflower. Diets rich in fruits and vegetables may reduce to one-third the risk of developing esophageal SCC, although in male smokers and drinkers. However, the thing to remember is that vegetables and fruits is not the 'neutralization' negative effects of cigarettes and alcoholic beverages, make it a habit to not smoke or drink alcohol.
