Cancer and Hormonal Balance
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Many cancers are hormonal related. Estrogen dominance may be accountable for breast, prostate, cervix, endometrial, uterine, and ovarian cancer, for example. Many researchers attribute the high incidence of these cancers to the ubiquitous presence of environmental estrogen (also called xenobiotics) that is present in our food such as commercially raised poultry and cattle; pesticides; and common household goods such as plastics that contain estrogen like compounds.

متن کاملExcess body weight, diabetes and cancer: epidemiologic evidence implicating hormonal and metabolic mechanisms
Epidemiological observations increasingly implicate nutritional energy balance as a key risk factor for cancer development. Excess body weight is associated with increased risks of cancers of the endometrium, breast (postmenopausal women), kidney (renal cell tumours), colon, pancreas and oesophagus (adenocarcinomas), and is also a well-documented risk factor for high-grade prostate cancer. By c...
