The number of cancer cases worldwide is projected to reach 24 million by 2035, according to Pannochka, an online publication for girls and women aged 14 to 35.. net Half of them could have been prevented.

WHO warns that without prevention, it will not be possible to curb such a rapid and at the same time alarming growth.

The number of earthlings diagnosed with cancer in 2012 was 14 million. This figure is projected to rise to 19 million.. by 2025, 22 million. by 2030 and 24 million. by 2035, which is comparable, for example, to the entire population of Australia, subject to an annual diagnosis of cancer.

It is also expected that within 20 years the number of annual deaths from malignant cancers will increase from 8.2 to 13 million..

According to Chris Wilde, director of the International Agency for Research on Cancer, an increase in the number of diseases is driven by an increase in the population and its aging.. Smoking, alcohol and obesity, as well as solar radiation and radiation from medical scanning, are the main factors contributing to its development.. Infections such as human papillomavirus (HPV), malnutrition and air pollution are also among them..

However, a survey of more than 2,000 people in the UK by the World Cancer Research Foundation found that almost half of the respondents were unaware that an unhealthy diet increases the risk of developing cancer.. Moreover, a third of the people participating in the survey believed that cancer develops exclusively through a hereditary line..

Although in fact no more than 10 percent of cancer cases are due to genes that are inherited.

Amanda McLean, general manager of the World Cancer Research Foundation, believes that about one third of the most common cancers in the UK can be prevented with simple preventive measures - maintaining a normal weight, a healthy diet and physical activity on a regular basis..

Diet should consist of vegetables, fruits and whole grains. Red meat, alcohol and processed meat should be excluded from the diet.
