What Is Pancreatic Cancer?
6. Prevention
You cannot make yourself completely safe from pancreatic cancer, but you can at least reduce your risk. One way to help achieve this is to eat a healthy diet. This means limiting how many processed foods you eat and eating plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. Not smoking can also make a big difference.
You can also reduce your risk of pancreatic cancer by maintaining a healthy weight. This can be achieved with a healthy diet and plenty of exercise, and this will give you further health benefits also. If there is a history of the condition in your family, you can speak with a genetic counselor to see what your risks are.
