Six types of constitution are prone to cancer patients

　　According to the latest "China Cancer Registration Annual Report", there are approximately 3.12 million new cancer cases in my country every year, and 8,550 people are diagnosed with cancer every day. What’s even more frightening is that 6 people are diagnosed and 5 people die every minute. Behind these terrible figures is the public’s lack of knowledge and awareness about cancer.

　　6 types of constitution are prone to cancer

　　The occurrence of cancer is caused by a combination of factors, of which it has a lot to do with a person's physique. Come and see if you "attract" cancer cells.

　　Traditional Chinese medicine believes that human constitution can be divided into 9 types, namely, peaceful constitution, qi-deficiency constitution, yang-deficiency constitution, yin-deficiency constitution, phlegm-dampness constitution, damp-heat constitution, qi-stagnation constitution, blood-stasis constitution, and special constitution.

　　Except for the peaceful constitution, the other eight types are all "biased" constitutions. Through years of clinical summary, doctors have found that people with these six types of constitutions: Qi deficiency, Yang deficiency, Yin deficiency, Qi stagnation, phlegm-dampness, and blood stasis, are prone to tumors.

　　1. Qi deficiency

　　Usually tired, prone to sweating, short of breath, lazy to talk, and dull eyes. This kind of constitution is common in people who are overworked and are prone to lung cancer.

　　2. Yang deficiency quality

　　Sensitivity to cold, spontaneous sweating, loose stools, and long urination at night are more common in people who are elderly, overworked for a long time, and are greedy for cold and cold. The proportion of cancer in them is obviously higher, especially those who are greedy for cold and cold are prone to gastric cancer.

　　3. Yin deficiency

　　Weight loss, dry mouth and throat, constipation, yellow urine, hot hands, feet, and heartbeats, and easy irritability. Due to overheating of the human body, the Yin fluid "evaporates" excessively, resulting in insufficient Yin fluid, and it is also easy to get lung cancer.

　　4. Qi stagnation

　　They are often depressed, fragile, sensitive, suspicious, unhappy, and full of chest and ribs. Over time, they are very susceptible to tumors.

　　5. Phlegm-dampness

　　Most of them are fat people. They usually eat too much fat, sweet food, and drink too much. They often feel that their stomach is full, their mouth is sweet and sticky, and they are heavy. They are prone to tumors.

　　6. Blood stasis

　　It is more common in those whose disease has not been cured for a long time and has repeated attacks. Blood stasis is prone to occur, and the skin color appears dull, the lips are dark, the eye sockets are dark, and the tongue is purple. For example, patients with lingering liver disease often have a dull complexion and are prone to liver cancer.

　　What should you do if you find that you belong to the above 6 susceptible constitutions?

　　Being susceptible does not mean that you will definitely develop cancer, only those with "insufficient righteousness" will. The so-called lack of righteousness is similar to what Western medicine calls low immunity. People can achieve the effect of preventing tumors by regulating their physical fitness.

　　If you want to say goodbye to "qi deficiency", don't overwork yourself, and avoid excessive physical, mental, and sexual fatigue; if you don't want "yang deficiency", keep warm and eat less raw and cold food; if you don't want "yin deficiency", drink more water, and treat fevers early; if you don't want qi stagnation, you should feel comfortable. To put it bluntly, it means not sulking, not getting angry, being less anxious, and trying to maintain a happy mood as much as possible; to prevent the occurrence of phlegm, we need to reduce the fat, sweet and thick flavors in the diet, try to eat a light diet, drink less alcohol, eat less meat, and eat less fried, smoked, grilled, and pickled foods.

　　Cancer prevention guidance on food, clothing, housing and transportation

　　Scientific research has confirmed that the causes of most cancers are related to lifestyle. "Cancer Stops" published by the American Institute for Cancer Research also pointed out that 77% of cancers are rooted in lifestyle. Shengshengjun provides you with the most comprehensive essentials for preventing cancer in terms of basic necessities, food, clothing, housing and transportation. You might as well make changes starting today.

　　Wash new clothes with formaldehyde first

　　Any new clothes that are worn close to the skin, regardless of the brand, must be washed first after buying them. Some harmful substances may remain during the knitting and dyeing processes of clothes. Direct contact with the skin may cause allergies, itching, dermatitis and other problems. Cancer is a multi-causing disease, and problems may occur if you are not careful.

　　Wear loose, light-colored clothing

　　Many people like to wear tight clothing, which makes the skin 'suffocated' and uncomfortable. Wearing clothes that are too tight can easily affect the blood circulation of the skin and cause sweat gland secretion problems. Underwear that is too tight is even more harmful.

　　Women who wear underwear that is too tight for a long time will increase the risk of breast cancer. Too tight underwear is detrimental to the health of the reproductive organs and anus, so it is recommended to wear loose clothing. In addition, brightly colored clothes may have dyes used, so you should try to wear light-colored clothes.

　　Wear less wrinkle-free shirts

　　Wrinkle-free shirts look crisp and tangible, thanks to formaldehyde. Try to choose plain shirts. If you wear wrinkle-free shirts, be sure to wash them thoroughly before wearing them for the first time.

　　Avoid the temptation of fat

　　Among all dietary components, fat has the strongest relationship with cancer, especially breast cancer and colorectal cancer. Shengshengjun recommends some tips for eating less fat: replace part of the meat with beans or soy products; remove the skin, fat, and outer layer of fried flour; do not eat cream or fresh cream on cakes; choose low-fat or skimmed fresh milk.

　　Eat less high-fat foods

　　The "three high" foods that are high in oil, high in salt and high in sugar are the "foods" that cancer cells like. People who ate French fries, fried chicken, fried fish or fried donuts more than once a week had a 37% higher risk of prostate cancer; those who drank only two sweet drinks a day had a 90% higher risk of pancreatic cancer. Therefore, be sure to eat less fried and pickled foods, and less or no sweets.

　　Keep in mind the three-character classic "Quan Xian Man"

　　“"Whole" means to eat more whole grain foods. It is recommended to mix the thickness of the staple food and eat more corn, sorghum, adzuki beans and other grains; "fresh" means to eat more fresh food and less processed food; "slow" means don't gorge yourself when eating, and chew a mouthful of rice twenty or thirty times.

　　Make a vegetable and fruit "mixer"”

　　It is a recognized fact that eating more fruits and vegetables and adhering to a high-fiber diet can prevent cancer. Sufficient amounts of vegetable and fruit fiber can prevent colorectal cancer and reduce the incidence of kidney cancer, breast cancer, esophageal cancer and other cancers.

　　The "Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents" recommends that you should eat 300-500 grams of vegetables and 200-400 grams of fruits every day. Generally speaking, you should choose more dark-colored vegetables and fruits.

　　Some foods are more anti-cancer

　　Blueberries, pomegranates, apples, sweet potatoes, cauliflower, carrots, onions, and garlic are all "well-known" cancer-fighting foods. Drinking more water and eating nuts regularly can also prevent cancer. It is recommended to drink 6 to 8 glasses of water and eat a handful of nuts every day. What needs more attention is that tobacco and alcohol are "big carcinogens", so you must quit smoking and limit alcohol consumption.

　　Take strict precautions against two carcinogens

　　In the ranking of carcinogens caused by indoor air pollution, benzene and formaldehyde are at the forefront. Benzene is a typical carcinogen in the home. It has clear carcinogenic effects. It is mostly hidden in paints, coatings and other decoration materials. It usually evaporates completely in one or two months. However, formaldehyde is embedded in furniture adhesives, large core boards, coatings, etc., and its evaporation rate is very slow, which may even last up to 10 years.

　　When purchasing, you should choose products with no odor or low odor. When decorating, you should sign an agreement with the decoration company, requiring the use of formaldehyde-free or low-formaldehyde-containing paints and coatings. In addition, it is generally safer to move in 30 days after the renovation is completed.

　　Open windows to drive away “dangerous elements””

　　In addition to benzene and formaldehyde, some cleaning agents, fragrances, hair dyes and other items also contain small amounts of carcinogens. It is recommended that when the air quality is good, wait for the sun to come out before opening the windows. If it is a hazy day, it is not advisable to open the windows.

　　Say no to haze

　　Smoking will increase the concentration of carcinogens such as metal cadmium, nitrosamines, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, causing lung cancer, liver cancer, skin cancer and other diseases.

　　Sweat every day

　　Aerobic exercise and resistance training help the body control inflammation and hormone levels, help the immune system fight off cancer cells, and sweating every day also allows toxins in the body to be excreted through sweat.

　　Set an alarm to remind yourself to stand up

　　Even if you exercise regularly, sitting still for long periods of time can put you at risk. Shengshengjun recommends that office workers use their mobile phones to set alarms to remind themselves to stand up for 1 to 2 minutes every hour. This will help reduce the level of molecules in the body and reduce the risk of cancer.

　　Get more sun

　　Research shows that people who supplement with 1,000 international units of vitamin D daily have a 77% lower risk of cancer. Vitamin D deficiency increases the risk of breast, colon, prostate, ovarian and stomach cancer. Bathing in the sun can replenish a large amount of vitamin D, but to avoid increasing the risk of skin cancer, it is best not to be exposed to the sun at noon.
