Abstract

Sinisa Franjic

The occurrence of cancer can be prevented through primary prevention: maintaining desirable body weight, ade- quate nutrition, sufficient intake of fruits and vegetables, regular physical activity, changes in sexual behavior and reduced exposure to carcinogens in the environment, and avoiding tobacco and alcohol. Scientific research indicates that one-third of the disease can be prevented primarily by stopping smoking and changing eating habits. Early de- tection of cancer, or screening, plays a very important role in the fight against cancer.
