People who
have diabetes may have a higher chance of developing cancer either before or
immediately after receiving a diagnosis of diabetes, according to a study
published online in the American Cancer Society’s journal, Cancer. This society has stated that colon cancer, for example, is
more likely to affect the diabetic people. Colon cancer shares many of the risk
factors of diabetes including body weight issues, a lack of physical activity,
smoking, alcohol, and consuming a lot of red and processed meat.
“There is
excellent evidence that diabetes can be prevented and that the metabolic
changes leading to diabetes can be reversed with lifestyle changes, Similarly,
diet and exercise interventions have also been shown to reduce cancer risks and
improve cancer outcomes in the general population, “Said DR. Llian Lega.
People with
diabetes can live long and healthy lives when their diabetes is detected and
well-managed. Early diagnosis and consultation is the starting point of living
well with diabetes. Diabetes is a disease that is likely to cause blindness,
amputation and kidney failure.
