Pancreatic cancer is a serious and deadly disease that can be prevented by making healthy lifestyle choices. Eating nutritious foods like green leafy vegetables, seafood, salads, and exercising regularly can help reduce the risk of developing this cancer. Risk factors such as smoking, alcohol, obesity, chronic pancreatitis, and diabetes can increase the chances of pancreatic cancer if left untreated.
Dr. Ronak Tate, a consultant-gastroenterology at Fortis Hiranandani Hospital, Vashi, highlights the importance of recognizing the symptoms of pancreatic cancer, which include loss of appetite, weight loss, abdominal pain, jaundice, and onset of diabetes. Changes in the gut microbiome can also impact the risk of developing pancreatic cancer, as certain harmful bacteria can produce carcinogens that damage pancreatic cells.
While researchers have made progress in finding a cure for pancreatic cancer, the survival rate at advanced stages remains low. Prevention is key, and incorporating a healthy diet, regular exercise, and avoiding excessive alcohol and smoking can help reduce the risk of developing this deadly disease. By making conscious choices about diet, sleep, and exercise, individuals can take proactive measures to protect their health and prevent pancreatic cancer.
