4th February: World Cancer Day

World Cancer Day is a global observance that helps raise people’s awareness of cancer and how to prevent, detect, or treat it. This event is held on February 4 each year. Every year, 17 million new cases of cancer throughout the world are diagnosed. Cancer will be fatal for nearly 10 million of those who receive this news. By the year 2040, it is estimated that there will be 27.5 million new cases of cancer. The most common cancers include lung, female breast, bowel, and prostate. Despite the prevalence, it is possible to reduce the risk of getting cancer. According to the Mayo Clinic, these things can help to prevent many types of cancer:
  • Avoid tobacco or stop using it
  • Eat a diet that consists of fruits, vegetables, and limited amounts of processed meat
  • Maintain a healthy weight
  • Do at least 30 minutes of physical activity each day
  • Protect yourself from the sun
  • Keep up with routine medical screenings
