The very name of cancer is like a nightmare for someone. Despite many achievements in the field of medicine, cancer is still a deadly disease. If cancer is detected in time, the treatment of the patient becomes easier and the chances of saving his life can also be quite high, but sometimes itt is not detected in time and it becomes difficult to save the patient. The reasons behind cancer can range from bad lifestyle to smoking, radiation, coming in contact with any kind of chemical, while one of the main reasons for cancer is heredity.
If there is a history of cancer in the family (parents or grandfathers had cancer), then it can continue for more generations, that is, if someone in the family has had cancer before, then this risk increases in the people coming next (especially In the first generation i.e. from parents to children). Therefore, it is very important to keep some things in mind so that this deadly disease can be prevented in time.
Get genetic testing done
Genetic testing is a technique in which genes are examined. Through this test, it is found out whether there is any change in the gene which can become the cause of any disease in future. If someone has a history of cancer in the family, then this test can be done as a precautionary measure.
Pay attention to these things
It is not necessary that if someone in the family has had cancer, you too will have it, because not every type of cancer is hereditary. Ovarian cancer, breast cancer in women and prostate cancer in men can be genetic. At the same time, if any kind of abnormal symptoms are seen in the body like sudden weight loss, pain in bones, cough or bleeding from the mouth, prolonged fever, it should not be ignored.
Take care of your diet
To avoid cancer, it is very important to eat a healthy diet rich in carbs, proteins, healthy fats, minerals and vitamins, along with this, try to always eat fresh food. Keep distance from things like smoking, alcohol, processed food. With this you can avoid not only cancer but also the risk of many serious diseases.
adopt healthy routine
To avoid any disease and stay healthy, it is most important that you take out some time every day for physical activity i.e. workout or yoga. Walking, cycling or exercising for at least 30 minutes every day can reduce many serious health problems.
