Oncologists and medical specialists have listed five daily habits that, in their opinion, help reduce the risk of developing cancer. The article, based on material from Bored Panda, cites data from the US National Cancer Institute: in 2022, about 20 million new cases were detected worldwide, and 9.7 million people died. It is projected that by 2050, the number of new cases will reach 33 million, and deaths will reach 18.2 million. Key recommendations include quitting smoking, minimizing alcohol, regular preventive screenings (mammography, colonoscopy, skin and prostate exams), protecting skin from ultraviolet radiation, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle with weight control, physical activity, and fiber in the diet. The author emphasizes that even following all the rules does not guarantee protection, as cancer development is influenced by age, heredity, and random genetic changes.
