Want to know about CANCER PREVENTION read this by Dr Myat Htwe, Singapore Cancer Society

Cancer Prevention

The number ONE killer in Singapore is cancer (followed by Heart Disease & Stroke). Not all cancers are the same. 1/3 is curable. 1/3 is preventable. 2 factors of cancer that cannot be controlled are AGE & FAMILY HISTORY.

Causes of Cancer

1. Smoking is very often the main cause of cancer. It kills us silently and drains money from us quietly. There're 4,000 harmful chemicals (though in diluted form) in one stick of cigarette. Taking one puff is 600 times worst than inhaling the exhaust fumes from vehicles.

2. Some food that cause cancer are:

   1. Barbecued Food

   2. Deep Fried Food

   3. Overheating Meat

   4. Food that is high in fat causes our bile to secrete acid that contains a chemical which is a promoter of cancer cells.

   5. Food that contains preservatives, too much salt or nitrates e.g. canned food, salted egg & veggies, sausages etc.)

   6. Overnight Rice (where Aflatoxin is accumulated)

   7. Food that is low in fiber: Our body needs 25 gm of both soluble & insoluble fiber daily. We must drink at least 1.5 liters of plain water a day.

   8. Contaminated Food (e.g. molded bread causes our body to secrete toxins that may eventually lead to liver cancer in the lon run. Never eat bread that is kept in room temperature for more than 2 days.

3. Types of fat and which is the best? Highly Recommended for Health

   1. Olive Oil - The best of all oils. It does not absorb in our body.

   2. Fish Oil - Omega 3 (contained in NI*s Circulytes) has poly-unsaturated fat. It's good for our brain cells.

   3. Peanut Oil - It contains Vitamin E. A small dosage is recommended only.

   Not Recommended for Health

   1. Vegetable Fat - Palm oil is worst than coconut oil. It is high in cholesterol and highly unsaturated.

   2. Coconut Oil - It has saturated fat

   3. Specific Food & Beverages

   4. Not too much

      1. Egg when eaten too much can cause

         1. High Colon Cancer Risk

         2. Ovary Cancer

         3. Prostate Cancer

      2. Cabbage is highly recommended for health reasons.

      3. Tomato is best eaten raw with a bit of olive oil for better absorption. Other alternative is to take tomato sauce.

      4. Coffee is good because it contains 2 anti-oxidants. Inhaling the coffee aroma for half each day is equivalent to eating two oranges a day. However, the residue of over-burned coffee is extremely bad for health. It can cause cancer.

      5. Tea, as long as it is in its original tea leaves and not processed into BOH or Lipton packets, it is good for health. Tea contains 30 anti-oxidants. Recommended dosage is 4 cups a day.

Exercise and Be Fit

Have a balanced lifestyle. Exercise regularly.

1. F: Frequency: 3 to 5 times a week

2. I: Intensity: Exercise till we sweat and breath deeply

3. T: Types of exercises: Find one that suits our age, lifestyle, etc.

Have Regular Check-up

Once we reach the age of 45 & above, it is recommended that we go for regular comprehensive health Examination.
