HISTORY
Research continues to show that
some cancers can be prevented.
What can I do to prevent cancer?
More than 70% of all cancers may be related to the lifestyle choices we
make. In other words, more than two-thirds of cancer cases could be
prevented if we made some changes.
Prevention and early detection give us the best chance of controlling cancer:
• Prevention means trying to keep cancer from developing,
by reducing our risk.
• Early Detection means finding cancer_in its earliest stage,
when it is easiest to cure. This is often before symptoms appear.
Seven Steps to Health
Research continues to show that some cancers can be prevented. Take
these steps now to reduce your risk of developing cancer.
1. Be a non-smoker and avoid second-hand smoke.
2. Eat 5 to 10 servings of vegetables and fruit a day. Choose high fibre,
lower fat foods. If you drink alcohol, limit your intake to 1 to 2 drinks a
day.
3. Be physically active on a regular basis: this will also help you maintain
a healthy body weight.
4. Protect yourself and your family from the sun. Reduce sun
exposure between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. Check your skin regularly and
report any changes to your doctor.
5. Follow cancer screening guidelines. For women, discuss
mammograms, Pap tests, and breast exams with a health
professional. For men, discuss testicular exams and prostate
screening with a health professional. Both men and women should
also discuss screening for colon and rectal cancers.
6. Visit your doctor or dentist if you notice a change in your normal state
of health.
7. Follow health and safety instructions both at home and at work when
using, storing and disposing of hazardous materials.
For more information on prevention and risk reduction, please
call the Canadian Cancer Society's Cancer Information Service
toll-free at 1-888-939-3333.

What is cancer?
Cancer is a disease in which abnormal cells in some
organ or tissue go out of control — growing and increasing
in number. Normal cells reproduce themselves
throughout a person's life, but in an orderly and
controlled manner. In normal cells, growth occurs, worn
out tissues are replaced and wounds heal.
When cells grow out of control and form a mass, the mass
is called a tumour. Some tumours grow and enlarge only
at the site where they began and these are called benign
tumours.
Other tumours not only enlarge locally, but they also have
the potential to invade and destroy the normal tissue
around them and to spread to distant parts of the body.
Such tumours are called malignant or cancer.
Distant spread of a cancer occurs when malignant cells
detach themselves from the original (primary) tumour,
are carried to other parts of the body through blood or
lymphatic vessels and establish themselves in the new
site as cancer. A tumour that has spread in this manner is
said to have metastasized (spread) and the secondary
tumour (or tumours) is called a metastasis..
