Into the book
Early detection of cancer requires the help of medicine, which is why health checkups are so important.
We need to change the mindset of, 'I'm healthy, so why should I get tested?'
Just like a drizzle can make your clothes wet, you may not even realize that you are getting sick.
I am living a very happy life, but cancer cells may be growing without me knowing.
--- p.25 From “Cancer Approaches Slowly and Steadily”
80% of stomach cancer cases are asymptomatic, and about 20% of patients experience heartburn.
In cases of advanced gastric cancer, patients often complain of weight loss, indigestion, and abdominal pain.
Additionally, if there is bleeding from cancer cells, melena, or black stool, may be observed.
You may feel nauseous or burning in your stomach.
Of course, if you have had these symptoms for 10 years but there are no major health problems, it may be a constitutional problem.
However, if these symptoms have suddenly appeared in the past few months, it could be a warning sign.
--- p.38 From “Koreans’ National Disease, Stomach Cancer”
What should I eat to prevent stomach cancer? When stomach cancer patients undergo a total gastrectomy, the stomach lining cells are completely removed, making it impossible for them to absorb or produce vitamin B12.
Such people should take vitamin B12.
A diet rich in vegetables rich in vitamins is also necessary.
--- p.41 From “Koreans’ National Disease, Stomach Cancer”
Genetics also has little influence on colon cancer.
The most common cause of colon cancer in our country is adenoma, and a large part of the cause of adenoma is Westernized eating habits.
This is because the large intestine is directly affected by what we eat.
--- p.57 From "A Foul Smell, a Warning Sign? Everything You Need to Know About Colon Cancer"
So, there are cases where people go to the hospital with back pain and are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.
The pain extends from the back to the shoulder blades, but at first, people think it is back pain and go to many orthopedic clinics, but the initial diagnosis is often missed.
If the orthopedic surgeon says there is nothing wrong, I hope you get a pancreatic examination done quickly.
--- p.73 From “The Silent Cancer, Pancreatic Cancer”
Especially if you have diabetes, you really need to take good care of your kidneys.
Because people with diabetes are more likely to have kidney damage.
Conversely, people with poor kidney function are more likely to develop diabetes.
If you don't manage your blood sugar, your blood vessels themselves will be damaged, and the first to be hit are your kidneys.
The blood vessels in my kidneys begin to break down, and my body stops functioning.
--- p.101 From “Signals the kidneys send to ask for survival”
However, if breast pain occurs symmetrically on both sides, the possibility of breast cancer is low.
Symmetrical pain is more likely to be due to menstruation or hormonal cycles.
However, if you have a tingling pain in only one breast without inflammation or fever and it lasts for more than 2-3 weeks, we recommend that you get tested.
--- p.176 From “How to Detect Breast Cancer with Certainty”
In our bodies, thousands to ten thousand mutant cells are continuously created every day.
Even at this very moment, mutations are occurring within my body.
It is to keep killing them so that they do not develop into cancer cells in our body.
Genes that suppress cancer in this way are called 'mistake-correcting genes'.
However, mutant cells can grow without being detected by immune cells.
Although rare, cancer can suddenly 'seed' in the peritoneum or pleura, as if it were falling from the sky.

Publisher's Review
Cancer, the leading cause of death in Korea
In this aging society, no one is immune to cancer.
Cancer has been the number one cause of death among Koreans for about 40 years.
According to the Ministry of Health and Welfare, the number of new cancer cases in 2021 was approximately 270,000, a 10.8 percent increase from the previous year, and this number continues to increase.
The most important cause is aging.
As normal cells age and lose their ability to eliminate mutant cells, the immune system gradually breaks down, increasing the likelihood of cancer cells emerging.
“If you live to be 80, there is a more than 30 percent chance” that you will develop cancer, meaning “almost one in three people” will develop it.
In an aging society, cancer has emerged as a major problem.
However, many patients miss the opportunity for treatment due to vague confidence that they treat cancer as someone else's problem.
Accordingly, Director Lee Won-kyung has been informing through his personal channel that the only sure treatment is to constantly pay attention to cancer prevention, and his advice, which hits the bone, has received a great response, with related posts garnering over 35 million views in a short period of time.
Dr. Lee, a radiology specialist, has earned the trust of many patients for his unique know-how in finding small cancers in Korean women who have dense breasts and are therefore difficult to treat.
The author of "Habits Can Stop Cancer" added specific evidence and descriptions to the preventive medicine information he had covered through his channel, "Cancer-Seeking Doctor Wonkyung Lee."
The author's unique style of explaining things in a simple and concise manner is reflected in the book, and the main causes and symptoms of specific cancers, as well as knowledge on prevention, are all condensed into one volume.
This book is recommended as a basic must-read for disease management for readers who want to learn about the most common cancers in Koreans, women's health, and correct lifestyle habits.
Is the coffee you drink without thinking a carcinogen?
Cancer is right in front of our noses
The reason many people overlook the risk of cancer is because they believe it is influenced by genetics and family history.
However, according to the authors, excluding areas beyond human control, such as aging and genetics, 60 percent of cancers are caused by environmental factors.
What environmental factors are there? Frequent drinking and smoking are often cited as common risk factors for cancer, but cancer risks also exist in areas we haven't considered.
For example, plastic containers used in delivery restaurants and cafes contain large amounts of microplastics and chemicals, which can increase the risk of breast cancer.
Even for non-smokers, if ventilation is poor, the risk of developing cancer increases due to the exposure to radon generated inside the building.
Eating habits can be seen as having the most decisive influence on cancer.
In addition to refined carbohydrates and simple sugars that are usually avoided, salted seafood, raw fish, and hot foods can also cause various types of cancer.
In this way, this book helps you establish your own standards for habits that need to be corrected by pointing out the correlation between nutrients and foods that you have been consuming without much awareness and cancer.
A little attention can lead to a lifetime of health.
Smart ways to avoid getting cancer, like getting your clothes wet in a drizzle
No one who has never been exposed to a certain environment is free from the risk of cancer.
Additionally, cancer cells grow silently within the body without being detected by the host, that is, the human body.
This is why many cancers progress to stage 4 without any particular symptoms.
To avoid being completely swayed by cancer, we need to accept the information in this book as essential medical knowledge for our time.
The key cancer prevention tips discussed in this book are regular checkups and improving habits.
The author emphasizes that it is more important to resolve to break bad habits one by one rather than trying to change all your habits.
Most diseases can be caught early simply by paying attention to your body and constantly monitoring its condition.
By following this book and learning everything about cancer from A to Z, including possible symptoms, symptoms to be reassured about, diet, lifestyle habits, and health screening techniques, you will be able to acquire excellent prevention techniques.
I recommend this book to anyone who needs clear guidelines for disease management.
