A cardiologist, candidate of medical sciences, clinical psychologist Anna Korenevich spoke about oncophobia and suggested why cancer occurs.
– Oncophobia is worse than cancer itself. A person is always in fear of getting sick and imminent death that cannot be prevented,– she wrote on her blog.
There are reasons that are called carcinogens to start the oncological process. From a medical point of view, we are talking about:
- malnutrition
- obesity
- sedentary lifestyle
- smoking, alcohol
- heredity
- radiation, industrial emissions.
According to Korenevich, the causes of cancer and atherosclerosis are the same. In addition, the close relationship between oncology and cardiovascular diseases, especially their acute manifestations, has now become apparent.
This, unfortunately, does not mean that people who lead a healthy lifestyle will never get cancer. Proper nutrition, exercise, the absence of bad habits only reduce the risk.
– All diseases from nerves. For me, this phrase has long ceased to be a joke. (…) Eliminating stress will lead to improvement, and in some cases, to a complete recovery, – said the physician.
According to studies, the hormone excess cortisol (one of the stress hormones) leads to increased pressure and blood sugar levels, to obesity, thinning of the skin and the appearance of purple stretch marks on the sides of the abdomen. There may also be a weakening of the immune system, indigestion, weakening of potency, insomnia, irritability and aggressiveness. Under stress, the adrenal glands produce large amounts of norepinephrine and cortisol.
A few words about the cortisol belly. What does he look like? Cortisol abdomen is manifested by obesity in the abdominal (abdominal) region. This is due to the fact that the cells on the abdomen are several times more sensitive to cortisol than other fat cells.
Earlier, Korenevich said that stress and negative emotions harm the cores more than fatty and junk food.
