(2015·常州第三次质量预测)In 2013, a report from The New England Journal of

Medicine showed that increased body weight is related to the death rate for

spanningall cancers. This is based on a study involving about 900, 000 people,

many years.

The study, started in 1992 by the American Cancer Society, included men and

women from all 50 states. The youngest participants were 30 years old, and the

average age was 57. By December 2008, 24% of the participants had died, just a

quarter of them from cancers. In analyzing the results, researchers attempted

to take account of such potential factors as smoking, drinking alcohol, taking

aspirin and a wide variety of other factors that might otherwise affect the

results.

The results are clear: the more you weigh, the greater your risk of dying

of cancer will be (up to 52% higher for men and 62% for women). In men as well

as women, the only cancers that did not have a strong connection with weight

were lung cancer and brain cancer.

For women, the strongest correlation with

weight was uterine cancer (子宫癌), which is 6.5 times higher for women with a

BMI (Body Mass Index) of 40 or more. For men, it was liver cancer, which is 4.5

times higher in most obese (肥胖的) men.

Smokers tend to be more successful in keeping weight off than non­smokers,

slightly reducing the risk. But many of them don’t have good lungs. Thus, in

another way, they also face risks.

As for why extra weight leads to excess cancer death rate, there’s no

clear agreement. But the decrease in vitamin D in obese people seems a likely

factor. Vitamin D is known to have a role in preventing cancer. Also，there is

a simple fact that obesity makes the management of cancer more difficult.

Although for now there is no simple answer to why obesity increases a person’s

cancer risk, all we know for certain is that the risk is real.
