How high is the incidence rate of prostate cancer? We should improve the awareness of prevention of prostatitis
Prostate cancer has become the most common cancer among men in the world. In 2012, the number of newly diagnosed prostate cancer patients was 1.1 million, accounting for about 15% of the total number of cancers. The incidence rate of prostate cancer is related to social and economic development, such as aging of the population, improvement of living standards, changes in diet structure, environmental pollution, etc. The developed regions tend to have a high incidence of prostate cancer. The data shows that the incidence rate of prostate cancer in China has soared in the past decade, especially in big cities. The incidence rate of prostate cancer in Guangzhou increased from 6/100000 in 2000 to 11.74/100000 in 2010, with a growth rate of 95.67%. Under normal circumstances, the prostate of healthy people contains a substance that inhibits cancer, which can effectively prevent the occurrence of prostate cancer. However, when suffering from prostatitis, this anti-cancer substance is greatly reduced, and the incidence of prostate cancer is increased. Therefore, patients with prostatitis should pay special attention to the prevention of prostate cancer.
How should prostatitis patients prevent prostate cancer?
1. Actively treat prostatitis
When prostatitis is found, please do not neglect or neglect it. Cooperate with doctors to actively treat and prevent the deterioration of prostatitis.
2. Eat less meat
The study found that the incidence of prostate cancer patients is closely related to their preference for meat. Long-term consumption of high-fat pork, mutton, beef and processed meat products will increase the incidence of prostate cancer. Therefore, the daily meat consumption of patients with prostatitis should be controlled below 80g. In addition, patients should also fast spicy food to avoid adverse stimulation and edema of the prostate.
3. Eat more and less
Fresh fruits and vegetables are rich in a variety of anti-cancer substances. For example, lycopene contained in tomatoes can effectively inhibit the production of cancer cells, reduce the protein content related to prostate cancer, and reduce the risk of cancer in patients with prostatitis. If you continue to eat about 500g of tomatoes every day, the incidence rate of prostate cancer will drop by 50%. Wooden brass contained in soybean and soybean products can limit the growth of capillary vessels of cancer cells and inhibit the growth and proliferation of cancer cells. Nuts, garlic, kelp and cauliflower can effectively prevent prostate cancer. Therefore, eating more light foods such as fruits and vegetables plays an important role in preventing prostate cancer.
4. Physical exercise
Reasonable physical exercise can not only massage the prostate, but also accelerate lymph circulation and blood circulation, and protect the prostate. In addition, patients with prostatitis should not sit for a long time, so as not to oppress the prostate for a long time and cause discomfort.
