Pancreatic Cancer By: Alyssa Myers ; the most fantastical person ever

THE PANCREAS!

Risk Factors The factors which could put you at risk for developing pancreatic cancer include: * Smoking * Chronic pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas) * Inherited conditions (including hereditary pancreatitis) * Familial pancreatic cancer syndromes * Long-standing diabetes

PREVENTION! The first thing I would recommend for lowering your risk is giving up cigarettes if you smoke. Smokers are two to three times more likely to develop the disease than nonsmokers. Diabetes and being overweight are other preventable risk factors, which a healthy lifestyle can attend to, and a new study suggests that eating more raw vegetables daily may cut the risk of pancreatic cancer in half. Eating five or more servings per day of yams, corn, carrots, onions, and similar vegetables is associated with a lower risk of the disease. Eating spinach, kale and other dark green leafy vegetables, as well as cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli and cauliflower, can also lower the risk.
