There
are many cancers that are at risk of getting worse if the patient is
obese or excess body fat, the breast, colon, endometrium (lining of the
uterus), kidney, and pancreas. One more cancers in this list, namely ovarian cancer ovarian alias.
There is research that suggests the higher a woman's weight, the greater the risk of ovarian cancer that she (the woman) had. Even according to the researchers, this cancer may also be associated with a person's height, although not as strong relevance weight, especially body fat.
As quoted by NBC News, Friday (03/14/2014), a team of researchers from the AICR get this conclusion after reviewing 25 studies involving a total of 4 million female participants, and 16,000 of them suffered from ovarian cancer.
"This could be an important finding because it shows how to keep a woman reduce her chances of developing ovarian cancer. Having previously not much we know about how to prevent this cancer," said Dr.. Rutgers Elisa Bandera of the Cancer Institute of New Jersey, one of the experts who helped write the report of this study.
Although the American Cancer Society and the National Cancer Institute says obesity as one of the things that allegedly can cause ovarian cancer, AICR asserted that the sufferer must not obese (BMI above 30). They added that women who are overweight (BMI from 28) is already at high risk.
In addition, fat cells can also produce other hormones such as leptin that can lead to uncontrolled cell growth that cancer arises. Researchers did not deny there may be other things that cause this, such as genetic conditions.
