Preventing Cancer

This program profiles a 66-year-old man who had colorectal cancer and a colostomy six years previously and has changed his lifestyle to prevent a recurrence, reducing cholesterol and alcohol in his diet and increasing dietary fiber and exercise. The program discusses ways of preventing certain cancers in the first place: follow the NCI guidelines on eating, modify alcohol intake, don’t smoke. The program also covers the general field of carcinogens or suspected carcinogens in chemicals and pollutants to which we are exposed every day, and seeks to draw a distinction between reasonable caution and excessive fear. (19 minutes)
