\"Today<\/a>
Today is World Cancer Day.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Some catastrophic events cast dark shadows long before they occur. A cancer diagnosis frequently comes like a thunderbolt on a cloudless day.

Not beyond us<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

This year’s tag line reminds us all that cancer is “not beyond us” and that we should remain vigilant in our fight against this deadly disease. In the United States, cancer is second only to cardiovascular disease as the leading cause of deaths. According to the <\/span>American Association for Cancer Research (AACR)<\/span><\/span><\/a>, more than 50 percent of the cancer related deaths that will occur this year could have been prevented. Tobacco use is the leading cause.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

What can you do?<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

The earlier in life you adopt a healthy lifestyle, the lower your risk of developing cancer. Protect yourself from this and other non communicable diseases by <\/span>not using any form of tobacco<\/span><\/span><\/a>, keeping any alcohol consumption to a minimum, maintaining a healthy diet, and getting plenty of exercise. The financial and emotional toll of treating cancer far outweighs the effort and investment required to implement preventive behaviors into your life.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
