There is no known way to prevent people from getting leukemia or any other cancer. Cancer is an ancient disease and can even be found in fossilized remains that are thousands of years old.

You can, however, minimize your chances of developing some form of cancer by not smoking, exercise, eating a well balanced diet, and remaining strong mentally and physically. Being healthy and strong when or if you get cancer definitely factors into your ability to survive cancer.

The same thing that can prevent you from all types of accidents.
Nothing. But stop worrying. Leukemia is not the worst thing that could happen to you, and probably, it wont.

The only way to prevent yourself from getting leukemia is to
stay healthy.We all have cancer cells in our bodys and all you
need is something to trigger them.Having a strong immune
system is the only prevention.But don't worry it can't be passed
like the common cold.And it's very difficult to trigger the cells!!!

there is no way to prevent from getting leukemia.it is a blood cancer, and runs in the family, etc. but it doesn't always have to run in your family for you to get it. it never ran in my family, and i have it. i wish there was a way to prevent it though.
