"This is nonsense"

Oncologist criticized Malysheva's statements about cancer

Oleg Syrov, "Evening Moscow"

TV presenter Elena Malysheva called kidney cancer the "best" type of cancer, which, in her opinion, is the easiest to detect and cure. In addition, Malysheva, relying on a study by Danish and Swedish specialists, concluded that people with the first blood type are usually threatened with oncology (so in the text – VM) of the colon, the second – stomach cancer, the third – pancreas.

Vechernaya Moskva decided to find out from the doctor of the highest category, Candidate of Medical Sciences, chief physician of the Center for Innovative Medical Technologies, oncologist Andrey Pylev, to what extent such conclusions correspond to reality: 

– The talk that the type of cancer "corresponds" to the blood group is not true, it is absolute nonsense. There is no real scientific basis for these conversations and rumors. This is the same nonsense as the claims that people with different blood groups have different dietary preferences, on the basis of which some "experts" are trying to justify "diets" and special "nutrition theories for weight loss." All this is unscientific.

The oncologist explained that the probability of a successful cure and subsequent rehabilitation of the patient depends on the stage at which the cancer was detected and when qualified treatment was initiated. Among oncological diseases, breast cancer, certain types of thyroid cancer in its early stages and prostate cancer are the most treatable, says the specialist.

Pylev noted that with five-year follow-up on progression-free survival, these diseases are treated with a probability of full recovery in more than 90 percent of recorded cases. The expert called malignant brain tumor, pancreatic cancer, melanoma and stomach cancer the most difficult forms of oncology to treat.

The doctor said that there is no prevention that guarantees complete protection against cancer. But there are factors that increase the likelihood of cancer, and they need to be excluded from your life. The doctor explained that smoking, alcohol abuse, excessive consumption of red meat, smoked meats, lack of fiber in the diet, and eating very hot food increase the risks. The oncologist also said that it is harmful to stay under the rays of the bright sun for a long time, but noticed that Muscovites are not in danger, since the sky over the capital is most often cloudy.

The chief physician of the Center for Innovative Medical Technologies advised not to engage in self-diagnosis if cancer is suspected: 

– Those who are ill or suspect they have cancer should immediately consult a doctor. Do not look for "alternative medicine options", do not be treated "by blood groups" by TV presenters, by psychics. You may lose valuable time on anti-scientific nonsense. Do not start the disease – this will complicate the process of real treatment and can lead to death. Contact proven competent oncologists, be treated according to international standards of medicine.
