If you are a believer of slow and steady wins the race, you shall skip this
page.The philosophy sounds and looks good; however, moving at the tortoises
speed is a plain absurdity for most of us.
With long traffic queues; we get honking cars, bright sunlight hovering over
our heads, and the pollution just under our nose.
Along with it, as the current generation loves instant gratification, moving at
tortoises pace instills irritation and anger.
When our bodies feel agitated, a lot of chemical reaction takes place in the
background.Any failure to reach the desired destination on time induce stress
in our heads.
Stress gets activated by the cortisol hormone the feel-bad hormone which
makes the person feel depressed and stressed.
But thats not the ultimate impact.One of the studies suggests that theres an
association between stress and cancer. [1]
In brief, it states that stress creates a positive environment and activates the
signaling pathway for the growth of the cancer cells.So, your tortoism wont
help you with the medical condition.

As the chain of the vehicles imbibes stress in our bodies, we also lay bare to
the chain of the unhealthy events which eventually carry us to the cancerous
goalpost.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/cantrafficjamlaythefoundationforcancer-190501104501/85/Can-traffic-jam-lay-the-foundation-for-cancer-2-320.jpg)
![When we are fired up due to the heavy traffic, we give birth to the cascading
effects where our sugar levels and blood pressure shoot up.
Theres a belief that high blood sugar level may bring in cancer as a corollary
disease.The cells in the body rely on glucose so that they can convert them
into energy.
The catch is even the cancer cells need the same glucose to survive and
replicate.With the high stress, you lift your glucose level, thereby feeding the
cancer cells to aggravate your condition.
In some cases, traffic molds your behavior.If you have been dealing with the
consistent traffic, you may resort to stress-nullifying options such as smoking,
drinking, or addiction to drugs.
And I am pretty sure that I dont have to define the association between
unhealthy habits and cancer.
No way we can rule out the pollution.
Theres a widespread belief that commuting in the car is free of pollutants and
have no connection with the harmful gases.
However, in reality, if you are inside the vehicle; you are much more prone to
the threat of harmful gases because of the fan of the air-condition which sucks
in more toxicity.
Moreover, the acceleration, braking, and idling potentiate the accumulation of
these harmful gases within the shielded car.
When you inhale these toxic gases through nose and mouth, they get arrested
in the different organs like lungs, and when the same molecules reach the
bloodstream, it may result in lung cancer.And heres the proof. [2]](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/cantrafficjamlaythefoundationforcancer-190501104501/85/Can-traffic-jam-lay-the-foundation-for-cancer-3-320.jpg)
Can traffic jam lay the foundation for cancer
- 1. Can Traffic Jam Lay The Foundation For Cancer? If you ever feel distressed with the traffic jam, consider yourself lucky because you werent the part of 12-day jam program of China the most extended traffic in the history. I wish we couldve studied every single person who was the part of this jam as they could have given us the vital analytics on the traffic jam and its impact on the health. Nevertheless, with whatever anecdotes we have, we can say that traffic jams may set the groundwork for cancer cells. Now, thats what I call a bizarre and astonishing link.Yes, traffic jams affect your health which may ultimately contribute to cancer.So, lets dissect the association between the two in detail.

- 4. You can avoid the inhalation of the toxic substances in your car by regulating your car fan to the mode where the fan doesnt suck in anything from the outer environment. Instead, you can choose the mode where the ac or the fan of your car enjoys and circulates the air present within the vehicle already. The idea is to prevent noxious gases to stuff in our vehicle, therefore reducing the risk of cancer. So between the two options stress-related cancer and public transport; what would you choose?
