Cancer alert: Oral microbes linked to pancreatic cancer risk, warn experts
A groundbreaking study reveals a surprising link between oral microbes and pancreatic cancer risk. Researchers found certain bacteria and fungi, including those causing gum disease, significantly raise the likelihood of developing this deadly "silent killer." This discovery offers new avenues for early detection through oral microbiome profiling and prevention strategies, urging further research into causation.
