What is the connection between acidity and cancer?
Although not patients with all acidity do not have cancer, persistent acidity can increase for prolonged gastric cancer (stomach cancer) or esophageal cancer (Annnali cancer). This occurs especially when diseases such as gastritis (abdominal wall inflammation) or esophagus barrets are associated with acidity.
Gastroenterologist explains, “If the patient does not control the acidity of the stomach on time, the stomach layers are damaged in the long run. This injury can cause cancer. So it is not right to ignore acidity.”
