The results of many studies in this area have recently been summarized by Australian doctors. Completing the cycle of long-term medical observation, it is safe to call the 3 main reasons that can cause cancer in women.
It turns out that the main reason for the development of malignant tumors in the human body are mutations. But what triggers them? The scientists set out to find out.
Bad habits
Australian oncologists closely involved in the topic of women's cancers, said they found 3 major causes of cancer in the fair sex. In a number of studies was attended by about 200 000 different women. And the status of all participants experiment were pre-analyzed for health, habits, and lifestyle. As a result, experts have come to the conclusion that 30 000 of the study / ladies inspected quite able to reduce their risk of getting cancer.
In fact, the main factor that provokes the emergence and development of malignant tumors, was named alcohol. Researchers say with certainty that even one "extra" a glass of wine can increase the risk of cancer by a few percent.
