CANCERS AWARENESS!!! “Prevention they say is better than cure”

Cancer is a group of diseases involving abnormal cell growth with the potentials to invade or spread to the other part of the body. Possible signs and symptoms include a lump,abnormal bleeding, prolonged cough, unexpected weight loss and a change in bowel movements. While these symptoms may indicate cancer, they may have other causes. There are over 100 types of cancers which affects humans.


There are risk factors associated with the cancer disease but the major problem is large number of people still have little knowledge about these factors.
There’s also a wide misconception that this disease can not be averted but it is infact 70% preventable;through maintaining a healthy weight, not drinking too much alcohol, avoiding smoking of tobacco,eating plenty of vegetable/fruits, vaccination against certain infectious diseases, not eating too much red meat, and avoiding too much sunlight exposure.
For example every 2 minute a woman is diagnosed with breast cancer and at least 1 woman dies of breast cancer every 13 minute. Unknown to many, breast cancer also occurs amongs men and although this is rare, an estimated 2,470 men will be diagonised with breast cancer and approximately 460 will die each year. This makes the disease as much a concern for men as it is for women.
So people “Prevention is better than cure” as we already know. Check your self all the time and be sure your perfectly okay.
