Cancer is a disease that will fear by almost everyone. A good medical care is not the treatment itself. It is about prevention of the disease before it occurs and for the disease to be detected early enough for a medical treatment to be effective (or to be more effective). Here, I’ll give a few tips how to prevent cancer.
1) Avoid any tobacco products – cigarettes, cigars, etc.
2) Maintain a healthy weight – eat well balanced diet and maintain balance calorie
3) Have enough exercise – at least 3 times per week
4) Prevent too much sun exposure – 10 minutes of sun exposure is good for vitamin D supplement
5) Avoid excessive alcohol intake – the best is totally avoid alcohol
6) Practice safe sex – avoid random sex and use condoms appropriately
If by any chance you have a family history of cancer in the family (which is unavoidable), the next thing you have to do is frequently check yourself for the risk of cancer. Early detection is important so we can treat early. It means you have good chance of recovery.
My rule is simple. Anything that is too much or too little is usually not good. Take good care of yourself or no one will. Have a nice day.
