WHO (World Health Organisation) is predicting that in
another 10 yrs every 4th person is going to have Cancer, i.e. every family will
have a victim of Cancer. However, the good news is 40- 50% Cancer is Life style
related & hence preventable.
1. By quitting Tobacco (Smoking- Bidi, Cigarette,
Cigar, or Smokeless- Khaini, Ghutka, Gurakhu, Paan masala etc), we can prevent
Cancer in more than 30- 40% cases.
2. Diet is also important- avoid fast food,
junk food, preserved food, alcohol as much as possible. Have lot of fruits,
vegetables, water, regular exercises.
3. Consult doctors for any symptoms which
are persisting eg- loss of appetite, weight loss, any new or increasing size of
a lump or mole. Please remember Cancer if detected at an early stage can be cured in 90- 100% cases
