Cancer Screening Guidelines By Age and Lifestyle

September 20, 2018Cancermjefferson
CancerThe American Cancer Society has pinpointed recommendations for  people by age. These are guidelines that can help lower your cancer risks.

The choices you make about diet, exercise, and other habits can affect your overall health as well as your risk for developing cancer and other serious diseases. It’s also important to follow recommendations for cancer screening tests. Screening tests are used to find cancer in people who have no symptoms. Screening gives you the best chance of finding cancer as early as possible – while it’s small and before it has spread.

By selecting the tab provided, you get information on healthy lifestyle choices that can help lower your cancer risk, and cancer screening test recommendations by age and gender. LEARN MORE.
