Three. A healthy meal makes a difference
Patients with skin cancers other than melanoma, whose diet contains only 20% fat are less likely to actinic keratosis - a precancerous lesion on or under the skin - than those whose diet contained 40% fat, reports a study. Also, fruits and vegetables should not be missing from our diet. Another study showed that people who consumed the highest amount of fruits and vegetables are 54 percent less likely to develop squamous cell carcinoma. Adopt the suggested diet, divided into five portions daily.
April. HPV is responsible for skin cancer
You know the human papilloma virus (HPV) as a sexually transmitted disease which can lead to genital warts or cervical cancer. But a study from Dartmouth Medical School suggests that some types of HPV may be a risk factor for squamous cell carcinoma. Although squamous cell carcinoma is rarely fatal and usually does not spread deeper into the body - as can happen with melanoma - still remains the most common skin cancer. And Worryingly, the rate of this cancer has increased fourfold in women under 40 years. Other types of HPV cause warts of the body that are considered by some dermatologists as a risk factor for skin cancer.
