28-Year-Old Influencer 'Princess Feifei' Loses Battle to Cancer: A Wake-Up Call for Healthier Lifestyles

In the early hours of February 21, the online community was once again shaken by tragic news. Princess Feifei, a well-known influencer from Shaanxi province, and an anti-cancer advocate, passed away at the young age of 28 due to cancer. Her mother, besides mourning her loss and sharing her own grief, emphasized in her eulogy the importance of taking care of one's health and regular check-ups.

Princess Feifei, who had previously been a video game coach, admitted in a video post that her lifestyle might have contributed to her disease. She mentioned that she often worked overtime resulting in sleep deprivation, irregular eating and drinking habits, and a potential genetic mutation, leading to kidney cancer. Many who knew her expressed their surprise at her sudden passing. "We only saw her at the end of last year, and she was such a lovely young woman," said a user. Another user added, "Rest in peace Feifei. May there be no pain in heaven. If only we all took our health more seriously."

A recent analysis by 'Evening News Data' reveals that, on average, over 10,000 people in China are diagnosed with cancer every day. This equates to seven people being diagnosed with cancer every minute. Doctors from various fields highlight the importance of cancer prevention and management. Some key advice is to avoid staying up late and to maintain a regular and balanced diet.

Interestingly, in 2007, the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) had already classified irregular work schedules (which disrupt circadian rhythms) as a Group 2A carcinogen, categorized alongside deep-fried foods. The health effects of long periods without sleep are far-reaching, and modern lifestyles often involve work routines that disrupt normal sleep patterns.

The sudden death of Princess Feifei has left many in the online community reflecting on their health habits. Many users urged each other to watch less late-night TV, reduce their consumption of fast food, prioritize sleep hygiene, and have regular health check-ups. "We should all lead healthier lives by eating healthily, sleeping well, and exercising. Health is our most precious asset," commented one user.

In addition to lifestyle changes, some cancer prevention strategies focus on specific 'bad' habits. For instance, excessive drinking may increase the risk of liver diseases such as fatty liver, liver inflammation, and liver cirrhosis. It can also exacerbate the risk of hepatitis B and C, both major causes of liver cancer. Similarly, smoking can significantly increase the risk of lung cancer, oral cancer, throat cancer, and pancreatic cancer.

To help prevent cancer, experts recommend a balanced diet high in fruits and vegetables and low in red meat and processed meat products. They also recommend at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity exercise per week.

Certainly, public health awareness is crucial in the fight against cancer. As Princess Feifei poignantly said in her video, "We only have one life, so we should cherish our bodies and have regular check-ups."

The World Health Organization (WHO) categorizes alcohol as a Group 1 carcinogen, meaning it is a proven cause of cancer. As cancer prevention efforts continue to intensify globally, increasing public health awareness around the importance of lifestyle adjustments in cancer prevention is critical.

The untimely passing of Princess Feifei, a young and vibrant individual, serves as a tragic reminder of the importance of health and wellness. This extends beyond just individual well-being, encouraging public health initiatives that can help reduce the overall incidence of cancer in society.

In remembrance of Princess Feifei, let us adopt a healthier lifestyle, get regular check-ups, and support public health initiatives in cancer prevention.

Everyone should remember these five phrases for cancer prevention:

1. Smoking can lead to lung cancer, mouth cancer, throat cancer, and other cancers. Quit smoking!

2. Obesity is linked to an increased risk of breast cancer, colon cancer, and others. Maintain a healthy weight!

3. BMI (Body Mass Index) should be kept in an appropriate range.

4. Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, less red meat (beef, pork, lamb), and processed foods.

5. Engage in at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity exercise.

Lastly, remember that alcohol is a proven carcinogen. Leading a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet, adequate sleep, regular exercise, and responsible alcohol consumption, can significantly reduce the risk of cancer.

May Princess Feifei rest in peace, and may her passing serve as a wake-up call for all of us to prioritize our health. In her honor, let's make healthier choices.
