Obesity has been linked to an increased risk of developing several types of cancer, including breast, colon, and endometrial cancers. This is due to excess fat tissue producing higher levels of certain hormones like oestrogen, insulin, and inflammatory substances, all of which can promote the growth of cancer cells.

Studies have shown that losing weight can lower the levels of hormones associated with cancer development. Additionally, weight loss reduces inflammation in the body, which plays a role in cancer progression. By achieving and maintaining a healthy weight, you can take proactive steps towards cancer prevention and overall health improvement.

With our personalised weight loss programmes, our team at Bramley Pharmacy can help you focus on long-term health and sustainable results, providing you with the tools and support you need to reduce your risk.
