OVERVIEW OF CANCER RISK FACTORS
You can reduce the odds of developing cancer by changing one or more controllable risk factors. A risk factor is anything associated with a higher propensity to develop the disease. It is important to realize, however, that even people with no risk factors can develop a particular cancer.

PANCREATIC CANCER
Prominent cases like Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and actor Patrick Swayze have drawn public attention to pancreatic cancer, which has one of the most dismal prognoses in modern medicine.
COLONOSCOPIES AT AGE 50
It’s no wonder many people put off an invasive procedure such as a colonoscopy so long. The truth is they shouldn’t, it is important to our overall health. Only 1 in 4.76 routine risk colonoscopies have no abnormal findings. Usually these are polyps, which are often how colon cancer starts.
QUITTING SMOKING
The zenith of America’s nicotine habit was 1965 when 1 in 2.39 adults smoked—that’s 1 in 2.97 women and 1 in 1.95 (a full 51% of) men. Since that time, smoking has been on the decline, but behind every quitter is a story
VEGETARIANISM
The odds an adult is a vegetarian of some kind are 1 in 31.36. And research increasingly suggests that vegetarianism might not only be good for your body—it’s also good for the environment.
