Stomach Cancer Causes
5. Chemical Exposure
The chemicals that are found in certain industrial settings can cause damage that can possibly lead to stomach cancer. Occupational exposure to asbestos, dust, metals (chromium VI), talc, crystalline silica, and high- temperature particulates has been implicated in some types of stomach cancer.
If you do work with any of these harmful substances, make sure that you make use of all the necessary protective equipment.
