At present, esophageal cancer has become one of the biggest killers endangering human health. China is a high incidence area of esophageal cancer, and the death rate of esophageal cancer is second only to gastric cancer.
Many people know that the incidence of esophageal cancer is closely related to personal lifestyle, especially eating habits. Spoiled, pickled and smoked foods are “high-risk” foods that cause esophageal cancer. In addition, unhealthy diet is also one of the important factors leading to esophageal cancer, such as overeating, unbalanced diet, partial diet, smoking and drinking, and irregular diet.
In addition to diet, the incidence of esophageal cancer is also related to poor sleeping posture, especially for people with poor digestion. In daily life, a good sleeping posture can not only make people get better sleep quality, but also give people extra points for health. On the contrary, bad sleeping posture can damage people’s body organs, and even induce various diseases in serious cases. For example, lying on one’s side can easily lead to cerebral thrombosis, lying on one’s stomach can easily lead to hypertension and heart disease, sleeping on one’s desk can cause eye expansion, and sitting and dozing can lead to brain hypoxia.
The reason why poor sleeping posture can induce esophageal cancer is closely related to the body structure of the human body. According to daily sleep habits, many people like to sleep on the right side, but research has found that when sleeping on the right side, the stomach is higher than the esophagus, which provides favorable conditions for gastric acid to return to the esophagus. When the amount of acidic liquid in the esophagus is more than normal and continuous, it is easy to cause heartburn. In the long run, it is easy to cause cough, asthma, chest tightness, etc., which may cause esophageal reflux, and even become one of the inducing factors of esophageal cancer.
Therefore, developing a good sleep habit is an essential link to maintain good health. First of all, we should adjust our sleep rhythm, ensure adequate sleep and fall asleep on time every day. Secondly, a quiet environment with appropriate temperature, fresh air and soft colors can also help improve the quality of sleep.
Thirdly, eating habits will also affect the quality of sleep. Fasting and satiety will make it difficult to fall asleep quickly. Smoking and drinking will cause a certain degree of excitement and psychological dependence, which will not only not help sleep, but also affect the quality of sleep. Finally, people with digestive tract diseases are advised to lie on the left side, which is beneficial to prevent gastroesophageal reflux, promote digestion, prevent heartburn, and prevent esophageal cancer and other diseases.
