Avoid risk factors!: The risk of developing esophageal cancer can be greatly lowered by avoiding certain risk factors. Avoidance of tobacco & alcohol is one of the best ways of decreasing your risk of esophageal cancer. A diet rich in fruits & vegetables & maintaining a healthy weight may also lower your risk. And if you have reflux or Barrett’s esophagus treatment is suggested. I wish you well with your health!
