>>> YOU KNOW THE BIGGEST RICK OF
CANCER?
FOR WOMEN IT IS OBESITY.
AND FOR MEN OBESITY IS THE
SECOND LEADING RISK OF CANCER,
ACCORDING TO THE CDC, THE
CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL, 40%
OF ADULTS AND 20% OF CHILDREN
ARE OBESE.
THERE ARE 13 CANCERS
SPECIFICALLY ASSOCIATED WITH
OBESITY AND THE RATES FOR 12 OF
THOSE CANCERS ARE UP.
I DO APPRECIATE IT.
SO EXCESS WEIGHT ACTUALLY
PHYSICALLY CHANGES THE BODY?
HOW SO?
>>> WHEN PEOPLE ARE OVERWEIGHT,
OBESE THERE ARE HORMONES THAT
ARE IS CRETED AND OUR HORMONE
BALANCE CHANGES AS WE GET
HEAVIER AND FOR WOMEN FOR
INSTANCE OVERWEIGHT WOMEN HAVE
MORE ECCREASE ALSO OBESITY
CAUSES INFAM OBLIGATION AND
INFLAMMATION IN THE ARTERIES AND
ALL THE BLOOD VESSELS AND IS
LINKED TO CERTAIN CANCERS ONE
HAS BEEN NOT AS MUCH OF AN ISSUE
GRAPHICKING THAT PUTS IT IN
PERSPECTIVE AS TO THE KINDS OF
CANCERS WE'RE TALKING ABOUT.
>>> 13 YOU KNOW AND ALL EXCEPT
FOR COLON AND RECTAL CANSVER
GONE UP, BREAST CANCER, CANCER
OF THE STOMACH, KIDNEY, CANCER
OF THE ESOPHAGUS, ALL THESE HAVE
AN ASSOCIATION WITH OBESITY
BECAUSE THEY HAVE ASSOCIATION
WITH INCREASED INFLAMMATION IN
THE BODY AND ALSO WITH CERTAIN
HORMONAL IMBALANCES.
ENDDRO E DOE METRIAL CANCER AND
RELATED TO ESTROGEN, WHEN PEOPLE
ARE OBESE OR HE MONEYS ARE IS
CRETED MORE AND DIFFERENT
BALANCES AND CAUSES CANCER.
THE ONLY ONE HAS THAT GONE DOWN
IS COLORECTAL CANCER AND THE
REASON IS BECAUSE OF THE A TH
PUBLIC INFORMATION CAMPAIGNS.
ACTUALLY PREVENTS CANNE IT HAS
GONE DOWN.
>>> WHEN YOU LOOK AT THIS AND
THE INFORMATION THE CDC RELEASED
THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO
DON'T RECOGNIZE THAT THERE IS A
CONNECTBION BETWEEN OBESITY AND
CANCER IFIO 1340EBG YOU CAN GET
LUNG CANCER, OTHER THINGS YOU
MAY, DRUGS AND WHATNOT CAN CAUSE
THAT.
WHY DO YOU SUPPOSE THERE IS THAT
DISCONNECT?
>> FOR YEARS WE'VE BEEN TALKING
ABOUT CANCER AND SMOKING AND
ALSO CANCER IN THE STOMACH IF
YOU ASK PEOPLE IN THE STREET
YOU'RE GOING HEAR SMOKING AND
SUN EXPOSURE, EVERYONE KNOWS
THOSE TWO AND WE'VE MADE GREAT
STRIDES AND ADVANCES WITH
DECREASING THE RATE OF TOBACCO
USE, THE FLORIDA CLEAN INDOOR
AIR ACT.
SO SMOKING RATES AND TOBACCO USE
HAS GONE DOWN PEOPLE DON'T KNOW
ABOUT DIET AND EXERCISE AND DIET
AND EXERCISE IS THE MOST
IMPORTANT DETERMINATION OF
CANCER.
>>> ANOTHER REASON TO GET UP,
GET MOVING AND ENGAGE YOUR
PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIAN, THINGS I
CAN DO TO IMPROVE MY HEALTH.

SOMETIMES PEOPLE HAVE TO MAKE
THE ASSUMPTION YOU IS TO RUN A
MARATHON EVERY DAY AND YOU DON'T
