Book excerpt: BASIC GUIDE TO CANCER PREVENTION KNOW THE RECOMMENDATIONS SCIENTIFICALLY APPROVED BY DOCTORS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD ABOUT THIS BOOK Cancer is now so common, it has most likely already affected you or someone you know. The human body is made up of billions of cells that grow and divide as needed. Eventually, these cells must die naturally as they age or fail. Cancer develops when something goes wrong in this process and old or abnormal cells do not die as they should. Cancer cells can crowd out normal cells as they spread out of control, making it difficult for the body to function normally. Fortunately, cancer can be successfully prevented, especially if there are no genetic predispositions. A large percentage of all cancers diagnosed are related to excess body weight, physical inactivity, excessive alcohol consumption, smoking and poor diet. The good news is that all of these risk factors are preventable. - CONTENT Introduction What Are The Main Causes Of Cancer And How To Prevent Them? How To Have A Nutritious Diet Against Cancer?

Download or read book Comprehensive Cervical Cancer Control written by World Health Organization and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2006 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most women who die from cervical cancer, particularly in developing countries, are in the prime of their life. They may be raising children, caring for their family, and contributing to the social and economic life of their town or village. Their death is both a personal tragedy, and a sad and unnecessary loss to their family and their community. Unnecessary, because there is compelling evidence, as this Guide makes clear, that cervical cancer is one of the most preventable and treatable forms of cancer, as long as it is detected early and managed effectively. Unfortunately, the majority of women in developing countries still do not have access to cervical cancer prevention programmes. The consequence is that, often, cervical cancer is not detected until it is too late to be cured. An urgent effort is required if this situation is to be corrected. This Guide is intended to help those responsible for providing services aimed at reducing the burden posed by cervical cancer for women, communities and health systems. It focuses on the knowledge and skills needed by health care providers, at different levels of care.
