What is Brain Cancer?

Brain cancer is an abnormal growth of cells in the brain. Typically, cells stop dividing after they grow old. But cancer cells are forever young and keep on dividing. So, there is a buildup of cells in a particular region of the brain, which grows into a tumor. Some tumors are benign and stay in the same place while malignant or cancer tumors spread to other parts of the body.

What causes this malignant tumor?

The causative agent of brain cancer is not clearly known. It could have caused due to virus or exposure to harmful radiations and carcinogens. Cancer could even be a genetic condition.

How to Prevent this Cancerous Condition?

Even with the latest developments in the field of medicine, we have not yet come up with an effective treatment for cancer. So, we should look for ways to prevent this disease. The top three tips for helping prevent brain cancer are:

Avoid Exposure to Carcinogens

The best way to keep cancer away is by staying away from carcinogens. There are many substances that have been proved to have cancer-causing effects. If you're living in an area that has a chemical factory, which releases harmful carcinogens into the air, then move away from that place. Although not conclusively proven, studies have shown that radiations from the cell phone could be carcinogenic. So, keep your cell phone away from you, especially during nighttime. It has been well researched that cigarettes have plenty of chemicals that could cause lung cancer. These harmful chemicals may have a detrimental effect on the brain too.

Say YES to Healthy Food

In most indigenous medical practices, food is medicine. These treatment techniques use different types of food to build immunity and treat diseases. Add lean meat, garlic, walnut, linseed and fishes to your diet as they are rich in omega 3-fatty acids, which helps prevent cancer. Apple, spinach, broccoli, pineapple and other vegetables and fruits rich in antioxidants help improve your immune system.

Check Your Family's Medical History

Sometimes cancer could be genetically passed from generation to generation. So, check your family's medical history to find out if there is anyone in the family tree who may have suffered from the disease. If yes, then go for a medical checkup at the earliest to rule out any chances of getting this disease. Most cancer conditions can be treated during the early stages, so get a complete health checkup done immediately.
