- This month our focus is on how LIFESTYLE contribute to certain Cancer, sickness and Chronic Disease 馃 - For the past 20 years TEAM NO SLEEP has been the popular thing to do for success. Now we are finding out that LACK OF SLEEP is a contributing cause of certain cancer 鈾嬶笍 such as Breast, Colorectal, Lung 馃珌 & Prostate Cancer!
馃啒 鈾嬶笍 LACK OF SLEEP IS A LIFESTYLE FACTOR THAT CONTRIBUTES to a HIGHER RISK for developing certain CANCER because it SUPPRESSES the IMMUNE SYSTEM, DISRUPT DNA repair, and ALTER HORMONE levels (like melatonin and estrogen).
馃洘 HOW LACK OF SLEEP IMPACTS CANCER RISK!
馃搷 WEAKENED IMMUNE SYSTEM: Sleep is crucial for a healthy immune system, which helps fight infections and cancer cells. Lack of sleep impairs this function.
馃搷 HORMONAL IMBALANCE: Sleep deprivation reduces melatonin, a hormone that helps regulate sleep and may have anti-cancerproperties. Reduced melatonin can increase estrogen in women and potentially spark genetic mutations.
馃搷 DNA DAMAGE: Insufficient sleep can hinder the body's ability to repair DNA damage, which can lead to genetic mutations and increased cancer risk.
馃搷 INFLAMMATION: Poor sleep contributes to chronic inflammation throughout the body. Cancer is often associated with inflammation, and lack of sleep can provide a favorable environment for cancer cells to grow and thrive.
馃搷 OBESITY: Short sleep duration is linked to overweight and obesity. These conditions, in turn, increase cancer risk through mechanisms like inflammation and insulin resistance. Shift work is a particular concern, as it disrupts the body's circadian rhythm and reduces melatonin, raising the risk of cancer.
馃啒 Specific cancers linked to lack of sleep:
鈾嬶笍 Breast Cancer: Studies show an increased risk of breast cancer for women, particularly those working night shifts.
鈾嬶笍 Colorectal Cancer: Lack of sleep has been associated with a higher risk of colorectal cancer.
鈾嬶笍 Lung Cancer: Some studies have suggested a connection between lack of sleep and increased lung cancer risk
鈾嬶笍 Prostate Cancer: Men who work night shifts or consistently sleep less than the recommended amount have been found to have a higher risk of prostate cancer.
