Jacqueline Howard DDS+FollowThe Y Chromosome’s Wild Cancer SecretTurns out, the Y chromosome isn’t just about being male—it’s got a major say in your cancer risk and how long you live. New research shows that as men age, their Y chromosome can disappear from some blood cells, and that’s linked to a much higher risk of cancer and worse outcomes. Even crazier: heavy smokers lose it faster. Scientists think checking for this missing Y could become a routine part of cancer screening for men. Who knew this tiny chromosome was such a big deal? #HealthNews #CancerResearch #Genetics #Health #BodyHealth436Share
