Inflammation as a Co-Stressor

bull Inflammation is a strong promoter of cancer

bull Many chemical exposures cause inflammation

bull Inflammation is also modulated by

ndash Diet

ndash Behaviors

ndash Disease

bull As long as inflammation is happening there is

a greater risk for compounded consequences

of carcinogenic exposures
