3 Top Cancer Prevention Tips
By Thomas Parker
1) AVOID CIGARETTE SMOKE:- Cigarette smoke contains over 70 carcinogens (substances that are known to cause cancer). Inhaling cigarette smoke transports these carcinogens to your lungs.
2) EAT A HEALTHY DIET:- Research suggests that eating a diet that is rich in fibre, vitamins and minerals can help prevent cancer. Vitamins and minerals contain a selection of powerful anti-oxidants that can help protect your DNA from damage. Fibre helps your body properly absorb the vitamins and minerals that are in the foods you eat. Therefore, one top tip for preventing cancer is to eat lots of fresh, natural fruits and vegetables which are a rich source of all the above.
3) EXERCISE REGULARLY:- Studies suggest that regular exercise is another great way to prevent cancer. It is not known exactly why exercise helps prevent cancer but it is thought as little as thirty minutes of activity per day can lower your chances of contracting cancer. Therefore, doing a little exercise daily is another fantastic cancer prevention tip.
By avoiding cigarette smoke, improving your diet and doing some more exercise you can hopefully avoid cancer completely. Cancer is a very serious, life threatening condition and you should discuss any concerns, treatments or lifestyle changes fully with your doctor.
