Different Evil causes of Cancer

Abstract

What is one of the leading factors of death in America? Cancer is the second highest killer in America, killing about more than 500,000 people a year. In the article “Cancer Statics, 2017 it states, “Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States, the first leading cause of death is heart disease” (Siegel et al). To fully understand how the lives of approximately 500,000 Americans are taken each year, we must find the root of the problem. Cancer can come from anything smoking, eating and even simply breathing in air. We are unaware of how easy it is to get cancer by doing our everyday task. If we understand the cause of different cancers, we can cut back the death rate. Each cancer is different and depending on the cancer both male and females are at risk. Woman are more likely to obtain breast cancer than males. Males are most like to get lung cancer than females, because they smoke more than woman. The most diagnosed cancers are breast and lung cancer. In the article “Cancer statics, 2017” it states “There are 4,600 people diagnosed with cancer each day. About 63.410 woman were diagnosed with breast cancer in 2017 alone” (Siegel et al). With the high number’s cancer is currently in a burden state. Many people who are diagnosed with cancer are weighed with a new heavy burden. Smoking is one of the leading factors of obtaining cancer. Not only is lung cancer taken in by the person who is smoking tobacco products, but innocent standbys are obtaining lung cancer. Simply breathing in the air of tobacco product can put a person at risk in being diagnosed with cancer.
