Thumbs up Preventing To the Various types of cancer - 03-14-2012, 09:55 PM

Various types of cancer are of particular concern to women, including breast cancer, lung cancer, skin cancer and colorectal cancer. To reduce the risk of cancer, consider these general tips:

* Don't smoke. Using any type of tobacco puts you on a collision course with cancer. Avoiding exposure to secondhand smoke counts, too.
* Maintain a healthy weight. Losing excess pounds — and keeping them off — may lower the risk of various types of cancer.
* Get moving. In addition to helping you control your weight, physical activity on its own may lower the risk of certain types of cancer.
* Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables. Although making healthy selections at the grocery store and at mealtime can't guarantee cancer prevention, it may help reduce your risk.
* Protect yourself from the sun. When you're outdoors, cover up and use plenty of sunscreen.
* Limit alcohol. If you choose to drink alcohol, do so only in moderation. The risk of various types of cancer — including cancer of the breast, colon, lung, kidney and liver — increases with the amount of alcohol you drink and the length of time you've been drinking regularly.
* Breast-feed, if you can. Breast-feeding may help reduce the risk of breast cancer.
* Take early detection seriously. Consult your doctor for regular mammograms and other cancer screenings.

There are certain foods, when eaten raw or lightly cooked with their nutrients intact will help avert diverse types of cancer disease. Edible kernels are full of nutrients that avert cancer disease in many parts of the body. Garlic is one most researched herb by the scientific community for its benefits.
