I believe that everyone in life will be afraid of cancer, especially nowadays, there are more and more types of cancer and the incidence rate is getting higher and higher, which makes people feel especially afraid.
Especially in recent years, the number of cancer patients is increasing every year, the mortality rate is also rising, and the trend of youthfulness is also serious, but the survival cycle of patients can be improved by positive ways
In fact, researchers have been exploring cancer cells and have found that cancer has numerous properties. Some people may think that cancer cells prefer sugar, but in the study, the researchers disproved this statement.
01
Do cancer cells like sugar or protein? Research results reveal the answer, read it and gain knowledge
In fact, in a study published in the journal Nature, scientists simulated changes in nutrient uptake in the body environment through six different tumor models.
Some people have found that around cancer cells, glucose is consumed particularly fast, and it is the immune cells that enter inside the tumor that absorb glucose, mainly to kill the cancer cells and get energy.
Cancer cells ingest a protein small molecule amino acid called glutamine. By ingesting sufficient amount of protein, cancer cells can maintain their functions and also inhibit the sugar metabolism of internal immune cells and hinder the operation of immune function.
So cancer cells will avoid being recognized and killed by immune cells by consuming large amounts of protein, which will cut off the pathway of sugar metabolism of immune cells and prevent themselves from being threatened.
Therefore, we should supplement protein reasonably in normal times to be able to fight cancer effectively. Some people may think that cancer cells like protein and if they consume less protein, the number of cancer cells will be reduced.
In fact, besides cancer cells, the body also needs the participation of protein. If we don't consume protein, it will cause the body to deteriorate and make cancer cells more rampant.

Why do people get cancer?
Environmental Factors
The nature of each person's job is different and the working environment is also different. Some environments may contain toxic substances, which may lead to cancer after a long time, for example, asbestos factories contain a lot of asbestos dust, which can enter the human lungs and cause lung cancer.
Low immunity
Immunity is equivalent to a defense mechanism. If immunity decreases, it will cause cancer cells to invade easily and the body cannot clean up harmful substances, which will cause cancer cells to run wild easily.
Poor living habits
Unhealthy lifestyle for a long time is also prone to cancer, such as staying up late, smoking and drinking alcohol, which can easily lead to lung cancer, liver cancer, stomach cancer, etc. And staying up late for a long time can also easily lead to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
Endocrine disorders
Nowadays, people are under a lot of pressure and some of them will be in a state of long-term depression, which will cause endocrine disorders and various diseases, such as cervical cancer, thyroid cancer and breast cancer.
03
Exercise can prevent cancer, so why do some people who insist on exercising, also get cancer?
It is often said that life is exercise, exercise has a positive effect on the health of the body, through exercise can improve metabolic capacity, help the body to clean up toxins and waste, but also to improve cardiorespiratory function, strengthen the body.
Some people have heard that exercise can prevent cancer, but there are also some people who unfortunately end up with cancer despite persevering with exercise, so some people are particularly puzzled.
Researchers have done experiments and found that people who exercise more have a lower risk of developing cancer, especially liver cancer, which is 27% lower.
Women who keep exercising for a long time also have a 10% lower risk of breast cancer, so persistent exercise can prevent cancer and is a key tool.
In fact, everyone's physical condition, living habits, diet and genetic factors are different, so we cannot say that exercise can prevent cancer because the appearance of cancer is related to many factors, but insisting on exercise can really bring benefits to the body.
