Gastrointestinal Cancers: Types and Ways to Reduce Your Risk | Dr. Nikhil Agrawal

Gastrointestinal cancer includes cancers of the oesophagus (food pipe), stomach, colon and rectum (large intestine), gallbladder, bile duct, pancreas, liver, neuroendocrine tumours and gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs). Gastrointestinal cancers as a group are the most common cancers worldwide. Overall, they cause more cancers and more deaths from cancer than any other system in the body. The outcome of the treatment of these cancers depends on the stage in which we detect them. They tend to spread in the body. If diagnosed before they have spread to the distant organs, we can cure them with surgery and multimodal treatment. But if detected in an advanced stage, the outcome is likely to be dismal. Since diagnosing them in the early stage is difficult, it would be in our best interest to reduce our chances of getting them as much as possible. 0:05 - Types of gastrointestinal cancers 0:12 - Problem with early detection 0:29 - Ways to decrease our chances of getting them 0:36 - Healthy diet 0:47 - Regular exercise 0:58 - Vaccination against Hepatitis B 1:10 - Cancer screening 1:29 - Maintain a healthy weight 1:36 - Avoid tobacco and alcohol Join us in the fight against gastrointestinal cancer by watching this educational video and sharing it with your friends and family.
