How to prevent lung cancer?

1. Quit smoking or don't start smoking: Smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer, so quitting or avoiding smoking is the most important measure to prevent lung cancer.

2. Limit exposure to secondhand smoke: Avoid being around people who are smoking, as secondhand smoke can also increase your risk of lung cancer.

3. Avoid exposure to radon gas: Radon gas is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can cause lung cancer.

Have your home tested for radon levels and take steps to reduce them if necessary.

4. Limit exposure to air pollution: Air pollution, especially in urban areas, can increase the risk of lung cancer.

Try to avoid areas with high levels of air pollution and wear a mask if necessary.

5. Limit exposure to asbestos and other carcinogens: Exposure to asbestos, arsenic, nickel, and chromium can increase the risk of lung cancer.

Take precautions to limit exposure to these substances in the workplace.

6. Eat a healthy diet: A diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can help reduce the risk of lung cancer.

7. Exercise regularly: Regular physical activity can help reduce the risk of lung cancer.

8. Maintain a healthy weight: Being overweight or obese can increase the risk of lung cancer, so maintaining a healthy weight through diet and exercise is important.

9. Get vaccinated against HPV: The human papillomavirus (HPV) can increase the risk of lung cancer, so getting vaccinated can help prevent infection.

10. Regular check-ups: Regular check-ups with your healthcare provider can help detect lung cancer early, when it is most treatable.

11. Consider lung cancer screening: If you are a current or former heavy smoker, talk to your healthcare provider about lung cancer screening options, such as low-dose computed tomography (CT) scans.

12. Avoid tanning beds: Tanning beds can increase the risk of skin cancer, which can spread to the lungs, so avoiding them can help prevent lung cancer.

13. Limit alcohol consumption: Excessive alcohol consumption can increase the risk of lung cancer, so limiting alcohol intake is important.

14. Avoid occupational hazards: Certain occupations, such as mining and metalworking, can increase the risk of lung cancer due to exposure to carcinogens.

Take precautions to limit exposure in these situations.

15. Stay informed: Stay up-to-date on the latest research and recommendations for lung cancer prevention and talk to your healthcare provider about any concerns or questions you may have.
