Prevention

Avoiding smoking or quitting smoking if you do smoke is one of the best ways to prevent cancer. Many cancers can be prevented by avoiding other risk factors such as excessive exposure to sunlight and heavy drinking. In addition, some cancers can be prevented by eating a healthy diet which is low in fat and high in fiber.
