Three words no one ever wants to hear, yet each year, over a million people in the United States alone do. But what if there was a way for fewer people to hear these words? One of the biggest myths regarding cancer is that it's mostly genetic--meaning that you have no control over whether you get it. While genetics do have an impact, the truth is that your lifestyle and environment play the major role. Take Control of Your Cancer Risk: A WebMD Essential Guide shares straightforward information and equips you with strategies to help you on a journey to better health, including: assessing your cancer risk, knowing which screenings you need, and when, learning the role food, exercise, and sleep play, understanding the relationship between stress and cancer. You have the power to reduce your cancer risk- -and this book will show you just how easy it is. 650 0 Cancer|xPrevention. 650 0 Health|xCancer.
