A member asked:
Is there a preventative treatment for cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many!: Many different cancers are linked to environmental toxins including tobacco, alcohol, high-fat diets, radiation exposure, poorly-preserved foods, air & water pollution, to name but a few. Obviously, some of these are easier to avoid than others. Common sense would dictate that maintaining a healthy lifestyle and seeing a primary care doctor for preventive health recommendations are your best bet.
