The word CANCER was not new to me. I knew a little about it when I was studying , I watched patients during my internship, few of them died, few survived. During my job as a diet consultant in a multi specialty hospital, saw many patients, tried to ease the pain and the effects before, during and after the treatment.
Then I had it too. I was not afraid or puzzled. I was somewhat confident. What I learnt from life-
Cancer is unavoidable. I don't think it can be prevented but few habits can definitely prevent it or lower the risk.
1. Listen to your body. It's your body. You know what's going on inside . If there is sudden change in weight, stamina, urine, stool, skin, hunger, thirst, your feelings, your thoughts, your movements, be vigilant and find the root cause of it.
2. Watch your weight. If you are overweight or underweight , find the cause for it. Try to be in healthy limits. In my case I was in a healthy weight range (55 kgs) when cancer hit me it shoot up to 65 kgs. I knew the reason.
