The American Cancer Society reports that some studies have suggested chemicals such as benzene and certain herbicides and insecticides (weed- and insect-killing substances) may be linked to an increased risk of NHL.
Chemical Exposure & Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL)
Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), is the most common type of lymphoma–a cancer that originates in your lymphatic system. NHL causes tumors to generate from the affected person's white blood cells. The American Cancer Society's estimates that for 2017, over 72,000 people will be diagnosed with NHL.
Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, like many cancers, can sometimes have a genetic component to its origin.
