Aversion to meat may indicate stomach cancer.
Oncologist, Doctor of Medical Sciences, Professor Alexey Shestakov warned about this.
The expert named atypical signs of stomach cancer in a conversation with the publication Komsomolskaya Pravda .
How to recognize stomach cancer
As the doctor explained, alarming symptoms often appear in the later stages.
This is a loss of strength, weight loss, pale skin, changes in taste perception. For example, an aversion to meat may occur.
At the same time, precancerous conditions, such as ulcers, in most cases signal themselves with heartburn, pain, etc.
Shestakov strongly recommends not to endure and not to self-medicate.
If a person consults a doctor in a timely manner, then the chances of preventing the development of a tumor increase, the specialist said.
According to him, an ulcer located in certain areas of the stomach has an almost 100% risk of degenerating into a tumor.
Excessive consumption of salt, processed meat (sausages, hot dogs) and pickled foods also increases the risk of stomach cancer.
In addition, there may be a predisposition to stomach cancer. If close relatives had this disease at a young age, you need to be constantly monitored by a doctor.
