Reused Cooking Oil Can Trigger Late Stage Of Breast Cancer

The early detection of breast cancer remains the key to increasing the survival rate. Up until now, there is no definite cure for cancer. Chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and surgery are among the popular ways of managing the condition. Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer. However, a new study is suggesting that reusing cooking oil can trigger breast cancer.

Reusing cooking oils is a popular practice in many countries around the globe particularly in fast food chains. Sadly, those who indulge in this practice are unaware of the dangers it poses to their health.

A team of researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign studied the effect of ‘thermally abused’ oil used for frying using mice that have been previously infused with breast cancer cells.

They found that the continued use of reused cooking oil led to the expansion of the cancer cells. This was not observed in mice that got fresh cooking oil. Cancer cells are known to aggressively grow in different parts of the body including lungs and swollen glands. The research finding was reported in the Journal of Cancer Prevention Research.

The Research Methodology

The choice of soybean oil was to replicate what is obtainable in many restaurants.

Firstly, the researchers fed all the lab mice used for the experiment for a week with a low-fat diet. The mice were then divided into two different groups. For sixteen weeks, one group got fresh soybean oil while the other group was fed with thermally abused frying oil.

The choice of soybean oil was to replicate what is obtainable in many restaurants. This is the commonly used oil for deep frying.

Each of the mice was injected in their tibia with 4T1 breast cancer cells to stimulate breast cancer. This breast cancer has a high metastasis rate in diverse distant sites and is known to be very aggressive.  This is why they have been spotted in the lungs, liver, and lymph nodes.

Research Findings

William G. Helferich

The findings of the researchers after 20 days were both interesting and scary. There was a significant difference in the metastatic growth rate between the two groups.

The mice that got thermally abused frying oil had a metastatic growth of tumors in the tibia four times higher than the mice that got fresh oil.

The researchers also noticed a higher number of metastases in the lungs among the mice that received thermally abused oil. Commenting on the higher number of lung tumors among the mice that received thermally abused oil, William G. Helferich, the lead researcher and a professor of food science and human nutrition said;

“I just assumed these nodules in the lungs were little clones—but they weren’t. They’d undergone transformation to become more aggressive. The metastases in the fresh-oil group were there, but they weren’t as invasive or aggressive, and the proliferation wasn’t as extensive.”

Factors That May Makes Reheated Oil Dangerous

Many researchers have been asking questions if this practice has any effect on breast cancer.

Researchers have discovered that when cooking oil is heated over and over again the composition changes leading to the release of acrolein. This chemical is toxic to the body and potentially carcinogenic. It is a common practice for restaurants to reuse soybean oil in frying many times before they are replaced. They do this to save cost without knowing how dangerous it can be.

Many researchers have been asking questions if this practice has any effect on breast cancer. However, it is professor Helferich and his team who have made an effort to answer this burning question. These results are still preliminary, but they add to existing knowledge. This knowledge will definitely expand over time as more researchers further the studies in this area.

Ashley W. Oyirifi, one of the graduate students and co-lead author of this study noted that the interest of cancer biologists is to unravel the series of activities that take place at the metastatic sites which prepares them for the growth of the tumor.

In the past, it is widely believed that inherent biological mechanism is responsible for the growth of the tumor.

The realization that diet may lead to the deterioration of breast cancer means survivors now have their health in their own hands.In order words, if people suffering from breast cancer eat the right food, it can increase their chances of survival.

October: Breast Cancer Awareness Month Gets More Support

Breast Cancer Awareness

Breast Cancer Awareness

Millions of people around the globe have participated in the Breast Cancer Awareness month for a good course. Every year, thousands are screened and the number has been on the rise in the recent years. In a woman’s lifetime, she has a 12.5 percent chance of having breast cancer, but only 1 percent of the men are prone to the disease. The Breast Cancer Awareness Month is done annually to help create awareness about the killer disease. Failure to diagnose it early enough may lead to death, but it can be treated if noticed at the early stage. Supporters and survivors aim to spread educational materials that can help women to detect the disease early enough and reduce the risk of metastatic or advanced breast cancer.

It’s simple – imagine internal cumshots and creampies delivered to your PC or mobile device in superb 4K (called Ultra Definition) quality. It means you are going to enjoy the very best content in every little detail.

Raising Funds

Stay Healthy

Other than publicizing early detection methods and breast cancer facts, the majority of organizations use October as a prime opportunity to solicit funds that help in breast cancer research. The Breast Cancer Research Foundation has given a clear intention of eliminating breast cancer. To do this, the foundation is operating under the theme: No more losing loved ones to breast cancer; No more hospital visits; No more needless suffering or side effects. However, the goal cannot be realized without conducting thorough research. Research is the only way to end breast cancer.

Apart from doing the research work, Susan G. Komen Foundation conveys that though millions of people may benefit from advanced technological treatments, a lot of them may die since they have no adequate access to reliable cancer care. Therefore, the foundation focuses on fighting the killer disease from the laboratories to the streets. It is imperative to spread awareness to help reduce deaths, which could have been avoided if the economic, social, and cultural barriers were addressed.

Be Breast Aware

If every woman takes the initiative of having her breasts checked, a whopping 1500 lives could be saved each year. As it stands currently, less than half of all women go for regular checkups. The rest are left exposed to the risk of death since no one can tell whether a woman has cancer until the right tests are done.

What Else Can One Do?

There are numerous ways that one can support or get involved before, during, and after the Breast Cancer Awareness Month. From sharing information with any person, who is interested, to vigorously campaigning to help women get access to the drugs they need, your little support will help in terminating the monster – Breast Cancer.

How Can You As A Human Help To Spread Awareness?

In today’s world knowledge is the first step towards the prevention of a disease. As a human, we all should take it as a noble duty to spread awareness about breast cancer. The following are some things you can do to make people more aware of the disease:

Cancer Awareness Month:

“The cancer awareness month for the year 2017 starts on October 1 and ends on October 31st.”

The cancer awareness month for the year 2017 starts on October 1 and ends on October 31st. During the cancer awareness month, we should participate in all the activities that help make the youth aware. As we have shown, women who are above the age of 45 are more prone to the disease. So, we must personally consult women in these age group and inform them of at least how they can personally examine themselves at home for signs of breast cancer.

Pink Ribbon:

The pink ribbon is the symbol for breast cancer awareness. It is a part of breast cancer advocacy. Breast cancer advocates help to raise funds for better care and to provide more knowledge of the disease. The pink ribbon signifies that you are aware of the causes, risks and prevention of breast cancer. Sometimes, this ribbon is used as a brand to raise money for the treatment of needy people who would be otherwise unable to afford the treatment.

Roadshows:

You can form a group of women and perform roadshows to create awareness among people on the road.

This kind of awareness programs often does very well because they attract more people and reach a greater percentage of the population.

Roadshows are very interesting to do. Performing skits, acts, and plays in roadshows can be very powerful way to convey really unforgettable messages.

Conduct Programs In Rural Areas:

“Educating the rural folks is very important.”

Rural areas are where breast cancer education are not usually available. Young people can take upon themselves the responsibility of conducting breast cancer awareness programs in the rural areas. They can do this during their vacation period or under a school or college project. Educating the rural folks is very important. Because if they are given proper education about breast cancer then the mortality rate of the disease can be successfully curtailed.

Cause-Related Marketing:

Some companies make profit from this scheme and donate the money generated to the cause. Some of the objects marketed include daily use products. These products are repacked into special wrappers and packs that contain information about breast cancer awareness. Often, these wrappers are made for special edition events. Therefore, their prices are often higher than normal. The funds so collected from these sales are then often given to the charitable firms.

Advertisements:

Many organizations, hospitals, and charitable trusts run advertisements for breast cancer awareness. Nowadays, increasing numbers of the global populace use smart devices to access the net. Therefore, these ads have the potential to reach unlimited numbers of people.

Often, these advertisements are made for products on sale and the profits collected for breast cancer treatments.

Preventive Measures That Can Be Taken To Reduce The Risk

Breast Cancer is a disease that can break women not only physically but also mentally. In this blog, we shall enumerate the steps that should be taken so as to lower the risk of breast cancer.

Know Yourself:

{Note to the developer: Kindly link Know Yourself to the article “An ounce of Prevention is worth a pound of cure”}

The very first step in the preventive measures we should take is to know ourselves and our bodies. Women should know all about their bodies. It is not a bad thing to touch the intimate parts of your body out of curiosity. A teenager should also be knowledgeable about her body as it develops.

To prevent breast cancer, you should know all there is to know about your breasts.

Regular check-ups of your breasts at home by yourself and occasionally by medical professionals is also recommended.

The density of your breast tissue can also play an important role as the denser the tissues the more difficult is it to detect cancer even with a mammogram. This is because healthy breast tissue and the cancerous tumor will show up as white colors in the mammogram. If the amount of fat is high in the breast, then it can be difficult finding cancer tumors on a mammogram.

Get Active:

“Being fit is always a plus point as it strengthens the immune system.”

Being fit is always a plus point as it strengthens the immune system. On the other hand, being overweight has a lot of negative points. Having a daily exercise schedule is a good way to keep breast cancer at bay. Exercise protects us from breast cancer risks in many ways. Daily exercising plays an important role in controlling fat levels in a body.

The amount of fat is directly related to the risk of breast cancer. The reason is that fat also produces estrogen in women. If there is no control over fat, then the breast cancer risk can increase.

By daily exercising, I mean exercising only up to a limit of staying fit. This does not mean that one should start exercising like a professional. Rather, about 40-45 minutes per day for about 5 days of the week is recommended.

Breast Feeding:

Women with newborn babies should continue breastfeeding their babies for at least six months. This is because most studies show that there is a decrease of about 10% in the risk of developing breast cancer in new mothers. Moreover, the milk also helps the newborn baby to strengthen its immune system.

Also, during this period a woman does not menstruate. This helps in keeping the levels of estrogen low in the female body and hence lowers the risk of breast cancer.

Family History:

“One should be intimately aware of their family’s cancer history. “

One should be intimately aware of their family’s cancer history. Although there are only 5-7% cases in which inheritance is a factor in breast cancer cases, why assume any unnecessary risks?

It is not necessary that you should know about cancer causes affecting only female members of your family but also of your father. Sometimes, men can carry genes that cause breast cancer in their children. These genes may include BRCA1 and BRCA2. These not only increase the risk of breast cancer, but also of ovarian cancer and many other types of cancer. It also increases the risk of early prostate and testicular cancer in the children of fathers who carry these genes.

Minimum Radiation Exposure:

Many women work in environments where exposure levels of radiation can be high. For example, women who work near manufacturing plants and nuclear reactor plants may be exposed to radiations that can escalate their risk of breast cancer.

Mammograms and X-rays are also one source of radiation emitters. But in very low amounts. Still, be careful not to go to a very large number of checkups. But this does not mean that regular checkups should be abandoned. This risk also increases in women who have been previously treated for cancers like Hodgkin’s disease. Since they have been exposed to radiation during treatment their risks of developing breast cancer is increased.

Sticking to these preventative measures can all contribute to lowering your risk of developing breast cancer.

A Statistical Study Of Breast Cancer

In the previous article, we discussed the factors which could enhance the risk of getting breast cancer in women. In this article, we are going to examine some breast cancer studies.

Breast cancer is a tumor that develops in the breast tissues of people, predominantly women. These tumors may be small in the beginning. But they grow big with time and start affecting the neighboring cells and organs.

In old times, it was very  difficult to properly diagnose and cure breast cancer. But with time and advancements in technology and research in the field of medical science, this has now become comparatively easy.

What are the different type of breast cancer and their rate of occurrence? This is what we will discuss next.

Types Of Breast Cancer

“There are several types of breast cancer.”

There are several types of breast cancer. Some of these are common while others are not:

Invasive ductal carcinoma:

Invasive ductal carcinoma, IDC is the most commonly found type of breast cancer that occurs in women. About 85% of breast cancer cases are of IDC. IDC is a cancer that affects the ducts that carry milk to the nipples. It later breaks the walls of the ducts carrying milk to the nipples and starts affecting breast cells.

A study revealed that in the United States more than 200,000 women are yearly found to have breast cancer and most of these cases are of the IDC type.

Invasive lobular carcinoma:

Often called infiltrating lobular carcinoma, ILC is the 2nd most common type of breast cancer. In a study it was revealed that in the United States around 180,000 women are yearly diagnosed with breast cancer. Of this number 10 % cases are of the Invasive lobular carcinoma type.

ILC is a cancer that spreads through the milk-producing lobules. With time this tumor breaks the walls of these lobules and then starts affecting the other parts of the breasts.

This type of breast cancer mostly occurs in older women.

Inflammatory breast cancer:

IBC is a type of breast cancer that only rarely occurs. These cases comprise only 3% of the total breast cancer cases. It makes up for its relative rareness by being very aggressive. In this cancer, there are no lump formation. In IBC the lymph nodes of the breasts become blocked and there is no flow to and fro in the breasts. This causes swelling and reddening of the breasts. This type of cancer spreads very fast when compared to other types, so it is very necessary that it be diagnosed and treated at its early stages.

Paget’s disease of the nipple:

This type of breast cancer is very rare and represents only 1% breast cancer cases. This type of cancer develops in the breasts ducts. And later further expands to damage the aureole and nipple of the breasts.

Does Age Matter?

There have been studies showing that older women tend to be more prone to breast cancer than younger women. But that does not mean that the younger women do not get the disease. But as you age the risk of getting breast cancer increases.

The truth is that younger women are usually diagnosed with the types of breast cancers that are easy to treat. While older women develop the types of breast cancers that are rare, tough to treat and more aggressive.

Stages Of Breast Cancer

Breast cancer is categorized in stages like 0,1,2,3 etc. The stages of Breast cancer depend on various factors. These factors include the size of the tumor, if the tumor has spread to the lymph nodes and whether the tumor has spread to other parts of the body.

The main stages of the breast cancer are:

  • Stage 0: Also called pre-cancer stage. In this stage, the tumor is only the size of dot.
  • Stage 1-3: In these stages, it is acknowledged that while the size of the tumor has increased it has not spread to the lymph nodes of the armpits.
  • Stage 4: This stage means that the tumor has started affecting other body parts and is continuously growing.

Of all these stages, stage 4 is considered very dangerous and often cannot be effectively treated.
