Last week Medical Specialists Pharmacy delivered the fantastic news to everybody around the World that we now have XLS-Medical Fat Binder
in stock, available to buy at just £38.99 at this incredibly low
introductory price. The news it seems has come at the perfect time as
the World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) has warned that there are over
22,000 cases of cancer in the UK each year that are directly the result
of people either being overweight or obese, and they can be avoidable if
people remained at a healthy weight.
The WCRF’s information was amassed via a report from the charities
own ‘Continuous Update Project’ (CUP), which investigates all the latest
cancer prevention research studies. The researchers involved in the
project say that 63% of all Brits are either overweight, meaning they
have a body mass index (BMI) that is higher than 25 or obese, with a BMI
over 30. The BMI reading is an estimate of a person’s body fat based on
both their height and weight.
However, according to the WCRF, this extra body weight is massively
increasing the risk of a whole host of deadly cancers including: bowel,
breast, gall bladder, kidney, oesophagus, pancreatic and womb cancer.
Added to the risks of different cancers, there are also numerous other
chronic diseases that are connected to excess body weight. Possibilities
of coronary disease, heart attack, joint problems and kidney failure
are just a few of the serious health risks those overweight or obese
people may find themselves experiencing.
According to CUP, around one in five (18%) of the 123,000
weight-related cancer cases in the UK can be avoided with necessary
action such as adopting simple healthy lifestyle changes, saving a
staggering 22,000 lives each year.
The figure of 22,000 includes 7,752 cases of breast cancer, 5,753
incidents of bowel cancer and 2,978 womb-related cancers. In addition,
it is estimated that 1,257 cases of pancreatic cancer may be caused by
being overweight. To give a better insight into the severity of the
issue, according to figures from Cancer Research UK, in 2011 there were
in excess of 320,400 people diagnosed with cancer. Clearly something
needs to be done to halt the trend, and fast.
Professor Alan Jackson, professor of human nutrition at the
University of Southampton and chairman of the CUP panel, spoke on the
latest report and said, “A significant number of cancer cases could be
prevented by people maintaining a healthy body weight. Through keeping
levels of body fat low, a lot of people will avoid getting cancer in the
first place – forestalling the pain and anguish associated with the
disease.”
Last year academics from Oxford University estimated that 134,000
instances of cancer could have been prevented through lifestyle changes.
Smoking still seems to be the biggest killer, accounting for a huge
61,000 of the cases, followed by obesity at 17,000. The academics
stressed although their calculations were ‘conservative’, there is a
good chance that obesity contributes to a number of different cancers.
After the estimates were published by the academics, Dr Rachel
Thompson, of the WCRF, said: “We hope this helps to raise awareness that
cancer is not simply a question of fate and that people can make
changes today that can reduce their risk. Thousands of cases of cancer
in the UK could be prevented by maintaining a healthy weight, being
regularly physically active and eating a plant-based diet without too
much salt, alcohol or red and processed meat.”
Before their latest findings were published, WCRF previously warned
that the number of Brits who get any form of cancer is likely to double
by the year 2050 unless something is done to stop the problem.
As you saw earlier this year,
weight loss surgery such as having a gastric band fitted, is probably
not the best option for those carrying a little extra baggage due to the
dangerous health risks. Also, many people who go under the knife
actually end up piling all the lost weight back on eventually anyway.
Perhaps the way forward is by adopting a healthy lifestyle and diet in
conjunction with a scientifically proven weight loss aid such as
XLS-Medical or the prescription medication Xenical. Both are available
today from Medical Specialists at incredibly low prices.
