Over six million people in the world die of cancer each year and by 2020 this number is expected to reach 9 million. To prevent cancer from taking an unsustainable toll on the population, it is best to put cancer controls into action. With April being Cancer Control Month, it is a good time to evaluate your day to day actions to see if there is anything you can do to prevent and/or detect potential cancers.



Leading a healthy lifestyle is the best way to prevent the development of cancer. Regular exercise, cutting down on fatty foods, quitting smoking and reducing your alcohol consumption are all effective ways of lessening the likelihood of developing cancer in the future. As well, wearing sunscreen will protect your skin from the sun's UV rays, as will wearing a hat and keeping to the shade in the summer months. Regular visits to your doctor for screenings and check-ups are also highly recommended.



Lifestyle may play an active role, but genetics does as well, so it is especially important to get regular consultations with your doctor if you have cancer in your family. Self examinations are possible for the breasts, genitals and irregular moles, however it is advised to get a check up at least once a year to test for other, less noticeable, warning signs.



Modern science has come a long way in the last hundred years, and disease research has grown along with it. Thanks to those who have pledged donations and set about fundraising for a cure, a cure for cancer might not be far off. Pick an organization or foundation and organize a community event to raise some money. While you are at it, celebrate the victories of those who have faced cancer and defeated it, they offer an inspiration to us all.



There are many options for cancer treatment at the moment ranging from chemotherapy to hormonal treatments. Specific inhibitor drugs such as Antisense Oligonucleotides, Ribozymes and Angiogenesis inhibitors can be used in conjunction with chemotherapy to address cancer specific processes.
