Today is World Lung Cancer Awareness Day. Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths, accounting for the highest mortality rates among both men and women worldwide. Smoking and prolonged exposure to fumes are some of the leading causes of lung cancer. The risk of lung cancer increases with the length of time and number of cigarettes smoked. Quitting smoking, even after smoking for many years, significantly lowers the chances of developing lung cancer. To prevent lung cancer don’t start smoking or quit if you smoke. #WorldLungCancerDay #LungCancer #LungCancerAwareness #EarlyDetection #CancerFreeNigeria #NLCC

Onions are vegetables commonly used to enhance the flavor of dishes, much like spices. They are an excellent source of vitamin C, B vitamins (such as folate and B6), and essential minerals like potassium and manganese, all of which are vital for good health and boosting the immune system. The compounds quercetin and sulfur in onions help lower bad cholesterol levels and regulate blood pressure. Additionally, the antioxidants in onions combat oxidative stress, thereby reducing the risk of heart diseases. Onions also contain sulfur-rich compounds and flavonoids, which have been shown to inhibit cancer cell growth and lower the risk of developing various cancers, including colorectal and stomach cancer. Moreover, they contain fructans, a type of fiber that acts as a prebiotic, supporting the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut, which aids digestion and promotes gut health. The vitamin C and other antioxidants in onions further strengthen the immune system, helping the body fight off infections and diseases. Onions add flavor and depth to a variety of dishes, making them a delicious and easy addition to your meals. Whether eaten raw, sautéed, or caramelized, they offer a tasty way to enhance both your palate and your health. #Superfood #SuperfoodSunday #HealthyEating #Diet #Nutrition #CancerFoods #CancerCare

Today is World Hepatitis Day! Chronic hepatitis B (HBV) and hepatitis C (HCV) are major causes of chronic liver disease and liver cancer worldwide, responsible for at least 80% of all liver cancers (hepatocellular carcinoma, or HCC). In addition to liver cancer, chronic hepatitis infections are linked to other cancers, such as non-Hodgkin lymphoma, particularly with HCV due to chronic immune system stimulation and inflammation. Protect yourself by getting vaccinated for hepatitis B, seeking early treatment for hepatitis C, and attending regular screenings. #WorldHepatitisDay #LiverHealth #LiverCancer #CancerCare #CancerAwareness
