Focus on fruits, vegetables and whole grains and steer clear of red meat and processed meat. It is also important to cut back on bad fats and choose healthy fats more often. Eating a healthy diet is best, but consider a standard multivitamin if you regularly fall short.
Drinking alcohol can increase your chances of developing 6 different cancers, and just a half or one drink per day can elevate the risk of breast and colon cancer. Overall, zero alcohol is the healthy used choice. Talk to an expert if you feel your addiction needs attention.
The sun can feel good but too much exposure to it can cause skin cancer, including melanoma. If possible, avoid direct sunlight between 10 am and 4 pm. Use hats, long-sleeved shirts and sunscreens. Moreover, remember that tanning beds can be just as harmful.
Sexually transmitted infections can cause a number of different cancers. Protecting against these infections is crucial. Practice safer sex. It’s also important to follow HPV vaccine recommendations for children and adults.
