Is there a way to prevent getting cancer?

Question

could children get it...14 years olds???

Answer 1

Hi Angel,

Yes, cancer can be prevented. Some societies have high levels of cancer, whereas others rarely get cancer.

There are lots of ways to prevent cancer...lots of ways...and lots of ways to get rid of it, too.

I got rid of my own Stage 4 cancer in two weeks...that's how weak cancer cells are. Like someone said before me, we 'get cancer' frequently, and we get rid of it just as frequently.

It's not something to worry about.

Good luck and be well.

Answer 2

ok well im sorry to say all the people above that said it can be prevented are lying. it can't. there is no way. i mean people think that things like atioxidants and certain vitamins and foods can help but there is no way of preventing cancer. if there was, nobobody would have it. and i find it really offensive how one of the ladies said she cured herself.. she didnt God did. She should count her lucky stars. anyway to answer the second part of your question kids can get cancer at any age including 14 yrs. its happened millions of times. have you ever heard of st. jude? its a hospital made for kids with cancer. My best friend had leukemia when she was in elementary school.

Answer 3

anyone at any age can get it BUT there are ways of preventing some cancers. You need to take care of yourself. Eat healthy, get annual check ups, exercise, refrain from smoking, etc. It may not prevent cancer but taking these steps can at least catch it in the early stages and when it's caught early, it's much more treatable and the odds of beating it are higher. Keep in mind it's rare in teens and younger people.. not an impossibility.. but rare.

Answer 4

We all get cancer, all the time, but we don't know it.
Our immune system takes care of errant cells.
The secret is in maintaining our immune system.
We can take vitamin "C" to clean out 'bad bugs'.
Then eat lots of yoghurt everyday to rebuild it.

Answer 5

anybody can get cancer at any age some can be partially prevented and some are genetic

Answer 6

I believe anyone of any age can get cancer. There are no gauranteed ways to prevent cancer but eating foods with antioxidants can help.

Antioxidants- Foods to eat

Antioxidants are our body's front line defense against free radicals.


Carotenoids are a family of antioxidant phytonutrients including alpha carotene, beta carotene, lutein and lycopene. Leafy green vegetables and foods with red, yellow and orange colored pigments are characteristic of foods high in carotenoids.


Lutein is found in fruits and vegetables like mango, papaya, oranges, kiwi, peaches, squash, peas, lima beans, green beans, broccoli, brussel sprouts, cabbage, kale, lettuce, prunes, pumpkin, sweet potatoes and honeydew melon.


The red color in fruits and vegetables comes primarily from the carotenoid lycopene. Dietary sources of lycopene are tomatoes, pink grapefruit, the skin of red grapes, watermelon, red guavas, papaya and apricots.


Some dietary sources of beta-carotene include mango, cantaloupe, carrots, pumpkin, papaya, peaches, prunes, squash, sweet potato, apricots, cabbage, lima beans, green beans, broccoli, brussel sprouts, kale, kiwi, lettuce, peas, spinach, tomatoes, pink grapefruit, honeydew melon and oranges.


Alpha-carotene is another important antioxidant. Sources of alpha-carotene are sweet potatoes, apricots, pumpkin, cantaloupe, green beans, lima beans, broccoli, brussel sprouts, cabbage, kale, kiwi, lettuce, peas, spinach, prunes, peaches, mango, papaya, squash and carrots.
