Let’s look at these preventive steps in detail. To begin with diet, a healthy diet is one which provides your body with all the essential nutrients. To prevent yourself from cancer, especially from cancers of colon, esophagus, and stomach, you should have a diet rich in fruits and vegetables.
You should avoid excessive intake of sugary food items and drinks and also limit your calories intake to maintain a healthy weight. Also, avoid intake of processed meat and also limit your intake of salt.
If you are in a habit of smoking and drinking, then you must give up this habit to prevent yourself from cancer.
