A member asked:
What are some healthy & natural ways i can reduce my risk for cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The basics: Don't smoke or do other tobacco, use alcohol in moderation or not at all, accept treatment for helicobacter (bismuth and antibiotics are nature's gifts), common-sense diet. Immunization is the most natural of all treatments, get hepatitis b and hpv immunization. Fitness probably is a help also.
