MONTHLY RATION (RICE AND PULSES) SUPPORT FOR POOR CANCER PATIENTS

When examining the causes of cancer in our areas, the Industrial Development Centre found that dyeing, tanning, old tire retreading and old battery processing units have polluted the air and water and increased the number of cancer patients. Moreover, the gas released from burning plastic materials causes cancer. It has the highest rate of new lung cancer cases, the second highest rate of colon and pancreatic cancers, and the third highest rate of laryngeal cancer.

Especially for women - the incidence of cancer continues to increase. The incidence rate of women under the age of 50 is 51% higher than that of men. And cancer deaths continue to increase.

Moreover, breast cancer has increased among women. There is not a difference between rural women and urban women, and breast cancer is more common. The incidence of kidney cancer has increased in boys. Apart from this, the incidence of cervical cancer has also increased in women. The mortality rate is increasing significantly because all the above-mentioned cancers are not detected at an early stage. When cancer patients were asked about the reasons for this, they said that no signs or symptoms of cancer could be detected in their bodies in the early stages. Cancer diagnostic tests are available in government medical college hospitals and private hospitals. Patients delay their tests due to the large number of patients in government hospitals. Due to this reason, it is not detected in the early stages.

Through the SWEED organization, 20 very poor cancer patients are being given rice, nutritious pulses, and lentils every month. This increases the white blood cells in the blood of cancer patients. It also helps cancer patients to undergo chemotherapy and radiation therapy.
