Is there a relationship between Cancer and obesity?

cancer, inflammatory cytokines, inflammationAbstract
Obesity has become a pandemic around the world in recent years, along with by devastating diseases such as cancer. Recently, the relationship between obesity and overweight in cancer incidence has been investigated. Keywords such as inflammatory cytokines, obesity, cancer and inflammation were used to carry on a bibliographic search in the Worldwide Science, Springer Link, PubMed and Google Scholar databases to describe the relationship between obesity and cancer. Reported studies have been able to establish the connection between obesity and increased risk of different types of cancer. It has been reported that a change in lifestyle and diet can prevent 30 to 50% of diseases. It is important raise awareness on the fact that obesity is the second preventable cause of cancer and that a reduction in body mass, as well as avoiding weight gain in adulthood, reduces the risk of developing the disease.
