Caffeine-drinking ‘exercise-freaks’ have reduced skin cancer risks
September 2, 2010The risks of skin cancer can be reduced by exercise and intake of caffeine.
With the ozone depleting fast, many types of harmful rays have started entering into earth. The sunlight as seen doesn’t consist of only white light but encompasses other invisible type of rays too. Though some are harmless to us but some invisible rays especially ultra violet rays are fatal to humans (often abbreviated as UV rays). Earlier, protective ozone layer used to shield us from the harmful rays coming from sunlight but now we are left vulnerable to exposure of these deadly rays. One never comes to know when he/ she had exposure with these rays and it is only after the harmful effects these rays incur one comes to know about them. Out of all UV-B are most lethal and carries the potential to cause skin cancer.
Generally prolonged exposure to sunlight is one of major factors which causes skin cancer. Though it is almost impossible to avoid contact with sun during once life, being on safer side by taking precautions is always a better option.
Recently scientists have concluded that of you have habit of working out every day you have and if you add drinking tea/ coffee to it, the probability of you getting skin cancer are much less as compared to people who don’t exercise or take sufficient amount of caffeine. Though exercise and intake of caffeine separately carries out the same task but their synergism do wonders. Studies have recently shown that combination of exercise and caffeine helps in decreasing the number of precancerous cells which are generated due to prolonged exposure of UV- B rays. Ultra violet rays generally affect cells and damages them. Such cells are known as precancerous cells and due to certain chemical changes in the body, these cells get converted into cancerous cells and this state is known as skin cancer. The only way body can save itself from cancerous cells is by instigating a process known as apoptosis. Apoptosis is the programmed cell death and cell starts dying itself. The combination of caffeine and exercise increases the potential of the body to remove the precancerous cells before they get transformed into cancerous cells.
In the tests carried out, it was shown as mice which were injected caffeine at regular basis had 95% more potential for carrying out self death (apoptosis) in the damaged cells. The mice which were undergoing few exercises such as running showed 120% more increase in the potential to carry out apoptosis. In those set of mice that were given caffeine as well as went through exercises like running had shown more than 400% increase in apoptosis in damaged cells.
Lot of people are already aware of the harmful effects of sun radiations and already apply sun screen to protect them. But now, caffeine and exercise needs to be incorporated along with sun screen to protect yourself from harmful effects of ultraviolet radiations and to keep the chance of getting skin cancer at a bay.
