The Connection Between Obesity And Cancer Has Been Revealed

March 18, 2016 – – Bariatric Mexico Surgery, whose team sources weight-loss surgery in Tijuana, Mexico, were dismayed to read about recent reports that have established a link between obesity and cancer. It has been shown that, as the rates of obesity have risen, so have the rates of certain cancers. The clinic wants to highlight the fact that bariatric surgery is available and that this can be a life saving procedure, particularly when dieting has failed.

A number of major studies have taken place to demonstrate the link between obesity and cancer. These studies found that obesity and being overweight is the second biggest cause of cancer, after tobacco. A number of cancers in particular are now known to be related directly to obesity, including breast cancer in postmenopausal women, bowel cancer, womb cancer, esophageal cancer, gastric cardia cancer, pancreatic cancer, liver cancer, gallbladder cancer, and aggressive prostate cancer. All of these cancers can be avoided by losing weight, which is why weight loss surgery is such an important option for people who have tried everything else.

Those who have been had surgery through Bariatric Mexico Surgery have been overwhelmingly positive about the results. “Dr. Fernando Garcia, once again I must thank you for the opportunity at life you have provided me,” says Jeff P. on the clinic’s website. “I was so near death, I had recently been hospitalized with something they called an infection, my legs had swollen to 24 inches around, I could barely breathe … now today I am a 270lb man, I no longer have sleep apnea, I can tie my own shoes, no more slip on shoes, I can buy clothes at the same place everyone else does.”

Many people see cancer as an unpreventable illness, something that just happens to them. In reality, however, a number of lifestyle choices contribute significantly to the chances of developing various types of cancer, and obesity is one of those things. It is expected that, for the first time in human history, the life expectancy of this generation is shorter than that of the previous one, and this is believed to be due to the increase in both obesity and cancer.
