4 Lung cancer What is lung cancer? Lung cancer is a life-threatening disease because it often spreads to other parts of the body and can be difficult to treat. Many lung cancers can take years to develop. It is mostly associated with smoking. There are two types of primary lung cancer: small cell (sometimes called oat cell because of the cell shape) and non-small cell (of which there are three types). Key facts According to Macmillan Cancer Support, people are diagnosed with lung cancer in the UK every year. Cancer Research UK states that lung cancer is the second most common cancer in the UK. More men than women are diagnosed with lung cancer. Smoking is the main cause of lung cancer. Around 90% of all lung cancers are caused by smoking. Other causes of lung cancer are passive smoking (breathing in other people s smoke), air pollution from cars, factories and other sources, working with asbestos (sometimes used in building works) and having other lung diseases. The longer you have smoked, the more likely you are to develop lung cancer. What are the symptoms? A cough that does not go away. Coughing up phlegm or blood. Being breathless. Feeling tired all the time. Losing weight/loss of appetite. Treatment Treatment for lung cancer includes one or more of the following surgery (mainly to remove the tumour and some of the lung tissue around it), radiotherapy (if the person is not well enough to have surgery, or to remove small areas of cancer that can t be seen or removed during surgery) and chemotherapy (the main treatment for small cell lung cancer). Reducing the risk Stop smoking: As soon as you stop smoking, your risk of developing lung cancer reduces. According to Cancer Research UK, 15 years after you have stopped smoking, your lung cancer risk is almost the same as a non-smoker. Diet: Research suggests that eating a healthy diet, packed with fresh fruit and vegetables may help lower the risk of developing lung cancer as they contain chemicals that can prevent cell damage. Advice is also that you should try and cut down on your salt, sugar and fat intake. MAC11588_KS2Sheet4

6 Fruit and vegetables are good for you Fruit and vegetables are an important part of a healthy and balanced diet. This is because they are packed full of vitamins, minerals and fibre that help protect the body from illness. Eating lots of fruit and vegetables helps keep you at a healthy weight and will mean you are less likely to become overweight when you are an adult. The government suggests we eat at least five portions of fruit and vegetables every day to reduce the risk of getting diseases like cancer and heart disease. Eating lots of different fruit and vegetables could reduce your risk of developing such illnesses by up to 20%. And the good news is that it couldn t be easier to get your five portions. For example, you could top your wholegrain toast with mashed banana at breakfast or you could have a mixed fruit smoothie as a mid-morning drink. How about swapping your bag of crisps for carrot sticks at lunch and instead of a chocolate bar from the tuck shop, try a handful of dried fruit. And for dinner, why not include a portion of salad with your lasagne, instead of garlic bread. It really is as simple as that. Remember, fresh, frozen, tinned, dried and bottled fruit and vegetables all count as one of your portions, so there are no excuses. So, what are you waiting for? Start packing your body full of nutritious vitamins and minerals today and reduce your risk of developing diet related diseases. MAC11588_KS2Sheet5
