Ways to Prevent Brain Cancer

Brain cancer results from cancerous cell growth in the human brain. These cells form slow- growing or fast-growing tumours. There are two different groups of brain cancer: primary and secondary. Primary is when the cancer spreads from the brain to other body parts. Secondary occurs when cancer reaches the brain from different body parts like kidneys, lungs, breasts, etc. Both of these are a cause of distress for many individuals across the globe. What is cancer? In simple words, the human body comprises billions of cells. New cells are produced every day, after which they grow and then ultimately die. It is a recurring process that happens in the human body. But when new cells are formed without the older ones dying, this abnormal situation leads to the formation of cancer cells. In fact, cancers have no specific place in the body to grow. They can occur anywhere in the body, which creates a sense of fear and uncertainty.
