Men's Health Week 2020 - 12 ways to reduce your cancer risk

It’s Mens Health Week and are you aware that almost half of all cancers could be avoided?
Here’s 12 small steps to reduce your risk: https://cancerfocusni.org/cancer-prevention  #RestoringTheBalance


Cancer Prevention - is about creating balance

During Mens Health Week 2020, people in Ireland are being asked to start the process of #RestoringTheBalance and to do practical things - no matter how small - to be part of the solution.  Cancer awareness and prevention is an area where this can be realistically achieved.

Did you know that there are a number of steps that men could take to cut their cancer risk?  For example, making small healthy lifestyle choices every day; knowing the signs of cancer; checking for changes in your body; getting screening tests; asking to be checked out if you notice anything unusual or if you’re worried about your health.
