What should i do now to prevent getting heart attacks, diabetes, and cancer in my future?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Prevention : This is a great question. Most people already know that the answers include healthy diet, exercise, & avoiding bad habits like smoking. A more individualized approach can be designed to address the risk profile of a particular patient, taking into account the family history & other factors. For example certain histories might lead one to focus on colon cancer screening, or on coronary prevention.
