class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cancer continues to be one of the leading causes of death in India, accounting for <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.who.int\/news-room\/fact-sheets\/detail\/cancer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">nearly 10 million deaths in 2020<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is caused by various gene mutations either at the time of birth or after birth. These mutations, at the time of birth, are genetic whereas those after birth are caused by radiation, smoking, obesity, lack of exercise, hormones, and carcinogens.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But here\u2019s the encouraging truth- early detection can make all the difference. Many forms of cancer, when diagnosed early, are treatable and even curable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">National Cancer Awareness Day aims to educate people about regular health check-ups, self-examinations, and understanding symptoms that shouldn\u2019t be ignored. It encourages individuals to be proactive rather than reactive when it comes to their health.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"History_of_National_Cancer_Awareness_Day\"><\/span><strong>History of National Cancer Awareness Day<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The day was first announced in 2014 by Dr. Harsh Vardhan, the then Union Health Minister of India. November 7 was chosen to honor Dr. Har Gobind Khorana, the Indian-American Nobel Laureate, whose groundbreaking research in genetics laid the foundation for modern cancer treatment and medical innovation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">National Cancer Awareness Day coincides with the birth anniversary of Madame Curie. Born in Warsaw, Poland in 1867, she was a Nobel Prize winning scientist. She is known for her discovery of Radium and Polonium. Also, she gave a huge contribution in the fight against cancer. Madame Curie\u2019s work was an inspiration for developing cancer treatment with Radiotherapy and Nuclear Energy.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Understanding_Cancer_The_Silent_Challenge\"><\/span><strong>Understanding Cancer: The Silent Challenge<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cancer is a disease in which cells in the body have uncontrolled growth.

Some of the reasons why cancer awareness should be paid enough attention are:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"High_Death_Rates_in_India\"><\/span>High Death Rates in India<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cancer incidents in India are lower than the ones in developed nations but death rates are higher. It is essentially because of the late diagnosis. Almost 50% of Cancers in India are detected at the later stages, that is, stage 4 cancer or stage 5 cancer. Before killing Cancer, it is important to kill lack of awareness and illiteracy. It is important to have National Cancer Awareness Day in order to save lives through self check and timely treatment.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Breast_Cancer_in_Women\"><\/span><strong>Breast Cancer in Women<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For women, there is a scary scenario in India. One woman out of 28 in India is prone to developing Breast Cancer. Talking about breasts is taboo in our society, so many women feel uncomfortable talking about their problems until it becomes something serious.\u00a0 Breast Cancer detection in its early stages is vital to stop the mishaps. National Cancer Awareness Day is an effort to attract women\u2019s attention toward their health. Self test is advisable for them. They can do it at their home and the process should take place seven days before and after their periods.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lifestyle_Choices\"><\/span>Lifestyle Choices<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tobacco is one of the biggest reasons for Cancer in India. There are many campaigns around it but a lot of efforts are yet to be made. For generating awareness about early detection of cancer, observing National Cancer Awareness Day every year can be proved a milestone if continued with dedication.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lancet\u2019s report disclosed that tobacco use can lead to 14 types of risk factors of Cancer. Having a lifestyle that involves high consumption of drugs, alcohol, junk or processed foods, and insufficient nutritional intake can add to your woes only. Unsafe sex, air pollution, and dust are the main risks for Cancer, especially cervical. With the right lifestyle, it is possible to protect yourself and your loved ones from the claws of deadly Cancer. Do not even wait for Cancer Awareness Day, take a pledge to get rid of unhealthy lifestyle choices to avoid the risk of cancer today.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Health experts believe that preventable factors account for 70% of Cancers in India. Out of which 20% cases are infection-related, 40% cases are tobacco-related, and 10% cases are due to other factors. Therefore, with the right information and awareness, it is very easy to prevent the many deaths due to cancer.
