For these reasons, tall people more susceptible to cancer.
Researchers said the University of California, Riverside, to increase the height increases the risk of cancer in women by 12%, compared to 9% in men, according to the website of Russia today. "
The results suggest that the presence of more cells in the body, due to excessive length, leads to a higher risk of deadly disease. Meanwhile, it seems that certain kinds of "stunting" significantly reduce the risk.
The study explains that hormone that stimulates growth, called IGF-1 it has a stimulating effect on cancer, through its role in accelerating the rate of cell division during its growth and increase the likelihood of cells to tumors.
According to researchers, the average height for males (175 cm), an average height for females (162 cm). They assess the risk of 23 kinds of cancer.

And it turns out that women faced the largest increase in the risk of developing thyroid cancer, skin and Lymphoma, colon, ovarian, breast, and uterus.
As for the men, face a higher risk of thyroid cancer, skin lymphoma and colon, kidney, bile ducts, and central nervous system.

And it wasn't to increase height role at a higher risk of cancer of the esophagus or stomach or mouth or cervical cancer in women, nor excess length is associated with risk of stomach cancer in men.
Professor Leonard noni, research team: "it is possible that IGF-1 hormone level in adults this direct effect on cancer risk, by increasing the rate of cell division. This relationship can be responsible for lower cancer rates, which have been observed in individuals who suffer from a lack of growth hormone's future. "
He said researchers who analyze large data sets in Korea and Norway, Sweden and Austria, it's interesting that some cancers are not affected by length, particularly lung cancer and cervical cancer.
While they are more likely to develop lung cancer through smoking and cervical cancer across the Helicobacter pylori bacterium called, researchers say the question is still open on the two types.
They stressed that the findings do not mean that women are more likely to get cancer in General, where men are "on average" risk of up to 55% more than women, according to the daily mail website.
