Men’s Cancer Awareness Workshop 2016

Want to reduce the risk of getting cancer?

This was one of the main topics discussed during the Men’s Cancer Awareness Workshop earlier this week.

Renowned Australian oncologist, Professor Ian Olver, said poor eating habits increase your risk of cancer in various parts of the body.

“Poor eating habits can also contribute to weight gain and being overweight or obese increase your risk of cancer.”

Prof Olver says improving diet can be as simple as trying to eat more fruit and vegetables, adding that processed food can increase ones chance of developing cancer.
