To get dirty to prevent leukemia.

One important study found that childhood leukemia is very likely to be preventable, specifically we are talking about acute lymphoblastic leukemia in children.

The most common, a type of cancer in which the bone marrow produces too many immature white blood cells.

The study that has lasted 40 years has discovered that the leukemia could have a double cause a genetic mutation and the lack of early exposure infections and the latter is the relevant thing, this disease is particularly prevalent in the most advanced and prosperous societies and its incidence is increasing.

The study found that only 1 percent of children who are born with the genetic mutation that causes cancer, end up developing it, but the key is that the incidence of cancer is higher in those children who experienced a very clean childhood , in the first year of life, without much interaction with other children and with too clean homes and this is where it can be prevented. Great news!
