how to prevent cancer

Cancer is uncontrolled proliferation of cells producing a malignant tumor. It enters surrounding tissues and may cause other tumors of the same type appearing far from the original site. Cancer can lead to death. Before going into the detail on how to prevent cancer, it is important to look at various associated with cancer for better understanding of this write up.
Terms associated with cancer:
Mutagens: these are substances which changes the genetic code of the cells. Mutagens produces mutation. Mutagens sometimes are formed when foods especially meat are fried or roasted.
Carcinogens: substances, food, or other agents that encourages the development of cancer are called carcinogens. The most common carcinogens are tobacco smoke, certain food additives such as nitrites, chemical contaminants such as pesticides, some viruses and molds, and radiation
Anti carcinogens: these are substances or food that neutralizes the action of carcinogens and slow or prevents the development of cancer. Virtually all anti carcinogens are plant-based.

Cancer to a greater percentage can be prevented by reducing the risk factors and by adopting appropriate preventive methods.
Preventing cancer by reducing the risk factors: to prevent cancer avoid the following; cured meat, grilled meat and deep fried meat.
Avoid excess calories from protein or fat sources such as meat, fish, eggs or milk.
Cut down on the consumption of smoked, pickled, salted, or highly spiced foods, to the barest minimum.
Avoid alcoholic beverages, coffee, and tobacco; these when combined increases their carcinogenic effect.
And lastly avoid the consuming very hot foods and beverages.
The rise factors mention above has the single ability to reduce risk of cancer diseases there by indirectly preventing cancer.

Prevent cancer by eating the right food: apart from reducing the risk factors that may lead to cancer, the major means of preventing cancer is by eating the right food. Food that are rich in pro vitamin A and vitamins C and E, dietary fibers, phyto-chemical elements (these are plant-based element that has been found contain anti carcinogens.)

Fruits such as citrus, plums, pineapples, grapes, blackberries, acerolas, guavas, are rich sources of vitamins and contain abundant vitamin C. whole grains are rich sources of dietary fiber its increases bowel movement. It also retains and removes carcinogenic substances that may be in the digestive tract. Vegetables contain pro vitamin A, vitamin C, and antioxidant phyto chemicals. Red beets contains anti carcinogenic phyto chemical. Carrot is a rich source vitamin A. legumes contains anti carcinogenic chemicals and dietary fiber.

Unfortunately most of these vitamins and anti carcinogenic chemicals that helps to prevent cancer that can be easily found in food mentioned above are easily destroyed during food processing especially cooking and at the end the value of the food to the body is reduce as a great percentage of these vitamins and chemicals that prevents cancer is lost.

As such I strongly recommend dietary supplements that can supply these important vitamins and anti carcinogenic chemicals that fights and prevent cancer. These supplements are manufactured from natural products and are so prepared that most of the valuable vitamins and anti carcinogenic elements that prevent cancer are intact.
I recommend the following; creatine citrus 300g, this a rich source of vitamin C, super anti oxidant this contain the important anti carcinogenic elements that help to prevent cancer, super potency megavitee; this is a good source of vitamins A and E and dietary fiber.
