Answer preview
Esophageal, colorectal, and anal cancers are types of cancers that affect the area between the intestines and the anus of human beings. These types of cancers have some different etiological factors that cause their induction or acceleration in the specified parts of digestive systems. One of the chief factors is that of the diet that a person takes. Meals that are highly rich in fats and cholesterol have been linked with causing a high risk of colorectal cancer. Foods with fats lead to the production of a high amount of bile acids, and this increases the rate of bacterial activities which can cause tumors (La Rosa et al. 2018). Another chief factor for the induction of the three cancers is that of physical activities. Lacking to do regular exercises leads to a person accumulating a lot of weight. Being obese leads to a high risk of causing the Esophageal, colorectal, and anal cancers. Genetic factors and family history has also led to the induction of different cancers although not at a vast scale.
