Beginning of Autumn is a very important health-cultivation season for cancer patients.
Bad mood changes are the activator of cancer, and the key to effective prevention and fighting of cancer lies in “environmental protection of the mind”.
Director Tu Yuanrong, chief physician of Thoracic Surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University and chief consultant of Fujian Thoracic Surgery Association, mentioned in the “Life Guardian & GanoHerb’s Help” series of expert live broadcasts held in GanoHerb that the lung is in the highest position among the internal organs. Known as “the delicate organ”, the lung is easy to be injured. Most lung cancers are caused by “anger”; among them, the most overlooked is the haze, which specifically refers to the psychological haze and unhappiness caused by sudden incidents, work pressure, and disharmony in interpersonal relationships, personal character and other reasons. If the patient’s psychological depression fails to be relieved, it will eventually induce disease. Therefore, in the live broadcast, Director Tu emphasized that a good mentality and exercise are also the key to preventing lung cancer.
Therefore, after the Beginning of Autumn, we should pay more attention to the influence of climate change on people’s emotions and stay away from the adverse factors that induce cancer.
