Brilliant for preventing cancers. what ought i be eating to prevent cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
There are no foods : That have consistently been shown to prevent cancer. However, you can dramatically reduce your risk of cancer by not smoking, moderating alcohol intake, and maintaining a healthy weight. You can also increase your chances of finding cancer early if you follow screening guidelines (colonoscopy for all, prostate exams + psa for men, breast exam and mammography for women).
