Did you or someone you love ever ask: What exactly is cancer? Why did I get cancer? Did I do something to cause it, or was it just bad luck? Noble laureate Dr. Harold Varmus says, "The prevention of cancer requires us to look not just at genetic predisposition but at how our lifestyle choices and environmental exposures interact with our biology to affect cancer risk.”
We talk about how cancer develops, lifestyle and environmental factors that contribute to the risk, and empower you with steps you can take for prevention. https://bit.ly/4aNslCP
