<h2>Some Cancers ARE preventable.</h2>
Many forms of Cancer come from our environment. The food we eat, the air we breathe, the products we use in our daily life.
<h4>You <em>can</em> do this</h4>
Don't smoke; protect your skin from the sun; limit your alcohol consumption; maintain a healthy weight; do regular physical activity; eat healthy food with fruits and vegetables; be aware of changes in your body; know your family's medical history;

<h4>Prevention and Detection</h4>
Awareness through education is the first and best step in the prevention of some cancers. Awareness through early detection can result in a better outcome for many cancers. Through cancer education we strive to empower the public so they feel as if they are part of the process rather than just a victim. Everyone benefits from cancer education, prevention and early detection via screening.  It definitely makes a difference in the fight against cancer.
