Earlier, several factors like stress, unhealthy eating habits and hygiene were often linked with the onset of stomach ulcers. In recent times these factors were proved wrong and scientists have identified the exact cause for the onset of ulcers. This is a bacterium Helicobacter pylori or H.pylori. These bacteria are commonly present in the stomach and create inflammation by destroying the mucus lining (inner lining which helps to neutralize the acid effect) of the stomach. It is also a leading factor for the development of stomach cancer.
Stomach cancer or gastric cancer is considered the 5th most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide, contributing to over one million cases each year.
Turns out, a bacterium known for causing stomach cancer might also increase the risk of certain colorectal cancers, according to a study led by Duke Cancer Institute researchers.
