Özet:

Obesity causes many health problems, including diabetes and atherosclerosis, or makes it more difficult to treat these diseases. The increase in body weight and body fat rate is characterized by endocrine, metabolic and immune changes, and is associated with a number of chronic diseases. Different types of cancer are among these diseases. The relationship of obesity with cancer is less known compared to diabetes and cardiovascular effects. But scientific data suggest that the increase in body fat rate increases the incidence or cancer-related death rates in some cancers. These cancers include colon, ozafagus, stomach heart, rectum, gallbladder, pancreas, kidney, over, endometrium and postmenopausal breast cancers. Data in literature showed that the body mass index increased by 30 per cent in any cause and 10 per cent in cancer deaths with every 5 kg/m2. Therefore, in the prevention of these types of cancer studies, the preservation of healthy body weight has an important role. As efforts to prevent obesity increase, weight control will be provided and the rate of cancer will also decrease.
