- DeathfireD, on 02/16/2008, -1/+18Theres a difference between sun exposure and to much sun exposure. You don't have to go out shirtless for 3 hours to get the required amount of sunlight.
- Anon5, on 02/16/2008, -0/+13Actually, masturbation is good for you; it may protect against prostate cancer.

#17 - don't get sun exposure, it causes cancer
Agh, doctors -- you never know when to believe them. - reitsu, on 02/16/2008, -0/+12Hmm...... I can only think of one tip, and that's: everything in moderation.
- atbnet, on 02/16/2008, -0/+10What's the point of living if I can't spank it?
- giantdouche, on 02/16/2008, -1/+11ANTI-OXIDANTS. ANTI-OXIDANTS. ANTI-OXIDANTS.
Seriously, they prevent DNA mutation, which is EXACTLY what cancer is. - unfinity, on 02/16/2008, -0/+9You know, I've actually read that regular sex/masturbation can help reduce the risk of testicular and prostate cancer - spank away!
- n1f7y, on 02/16/2008, -2/+8thanks for the update captain obvious
- BlueStarr, on 02/16/2008, -0/+3Genetics is the ultimate factor in a persons susceptibility to disease. They're saying it will help... not make you invincible but help to combat. But what this article is ultimately saying is to nourish your body with vitamin rich, healthy foods. And in the end that's not rubbish, it's fact.
- haydesigner, on 02/16/2008, -0/+3@reitsu "Hmm...... I can only think of one tip, and that's: everything in moderation."
@jc7012 "Everything causes cancer, just live your life to the fullest."
Is it possible to do both? - BlueStarr, on 02/16/2008, -0/+3um...no. Eat health. Exercise. Live life.
Get it now? - Alpha1337, on 02/16/2008, -0/+3"Having an unfaithful husband also increases her risk."
,,, because women are incapable of cheating.... - inactive, on 02/16/2008, -0/+3That's how to live a life that isn't any fun. If you get sick you get sick, but not having fun doesn't guarantee you won't get cancer.
- TylerM, on 02/16/2008, -0/+3Knowing the world, I'd go and do all this stuff and they'd cure cancer.
- poopz, on 02/16/2008, -0/+3Is there anything wrong with putting a few pieces of broccoli on your dinner plate? Taking your vitamins every day? I mean obviously I'm not going to do all of the 31 things religiously, but these are some good tips for preventing cancer that actually have research behind them..
- inactive, on 02/16/2008, -0/+2#32. Smoke Weed.
I had a lump in my groin area so I smoked weed every night for a week, and the lump is gone. - zakatov, on 02/16/2008, -0/+2at this point anyone with half a brain would see that garlic doesn't protect against a genetic predisposition for cancer
- FadieZ, on 02/16/2008, -1/+3My family is Lebanese - we use garlic more than people use salt, yet I've had cancer, my mom has had cancer twice, my uncle has terminal cancer, my grandfather died from cancer, my aunt died from cancer and I'm currently getting another biopsy for cancer.
I mean garlic tastes good and all, but *****. Does it really work?
P.S. Sorry but I hate ***** like this. Everything causes cancer, even stressing about cancer. So stop worrying about cancer and live, trust me it's way more fun. You're going to die anyway, aren't you? - BlueStarr, on 02/16/2008, -0/+2Knowledge is power. But what the list is pretty well founded. Eat healthy!
- kita8, on 02/16/2008, -0/+2i kno lots of ppl that got cancer and lived the good life.
if the sun can give u cancer, and so can sunscreen, then consider ureself screwed :P - cjmal, on 02/16/2008, -0/+2I had no lump in my groin area. I smoked weed for a week. It was fun.
- inactive, on 02/16/2008, -1/+2Favourite suggestion: Drink a beer.
Yes! - chall85, on 02/16/2008, -3/+4These stupid ill-informed lists are the reason I stopped using Stumble. Half of this list is speculation at best. Best to do your own research.
- Zaneris, on 02/16/2008, -1/+2You can't cure something that is just a malfunction of your own body, what you should be saying is that there is no 100% effective treatment for cancer. There will never be a magical cure for all cancerous cells.
- po43292, on 02/16/2008, -1/+2And if you don't get it you still might get in a car accident or something.
- inactive, on 02/16/2008, -0/+1after you do all those things, get in your SUV and breathe toxic car fumes while you commute for 2 hours a day.
- inactive, on 02/16/2008, -1/+2quackery
go talk to your doctor for cancer info - kamizu, on 02/16/2008, -0/+1"30. Go for a spray-on tan." - Anyone else reminded of Lee Hottie's douchebaggery?
http://youtube.com/watch?v=SDeWJqKx3Y0 - cast55, on 02/16/2008, -0/+1If beer is one of the 31 things, then 31 beers should keep me up with the health nuts, right?
- inactive, on 02/16/2008, -1/+2Nanomachine treatments would be 100%, and we'll probably be there in under 20 years.
- Ymeg, on 02/16/2008, -0/+132. Get your ***** checked every year. If your family has a history of it, you should act as if you will get it.
- Ymeg, on 02/16/2008, -0/+1Stop your *****.

If you want to complain about it, say how it only protects against 4 strands of the disease.
P.s. Infowars is as credible as a high school drop out selling you an invisibility potion.
edit: Why would it only increase it in 'non virgin girls'? Does man juice somehow prevent it? - inactive, on 02/16/2008, -0/+1hhmm i didn't even see "smoking marijuana" on there...THC apparently kills cancer causing cells, who knew!!?? Smoke a joint once a week and be safer from death..hahah
- whaleplushie, on 02/16/2008, -1/+2this list is crap:
#10: "Grilling meat can create a variety of cancer-causing chemicals. "
#14: "Throw some salmon on the grill tonight." - bshock, on 02/16/2008, -0/+1Did you actually read the wiki article you linked, asherchang? This one simply suggested that at antioxidants had no effect on mortality on healthy people, and might only have a slight increase in mortality for the vulnerable. That hardly seems like a justification for including your little gem of wisdom in an already highly questionable list.
- bariswheel, on 02/17/2008, -0/+1Read The China Study.
- cfuse, on 02/17/2008, -0/+1Tell anyone who has had cancer that it was largely predictable - and get a free punch in the face.
- Puisapres, on 02/16/2008, -0/+1Dugg for the good word about artichokes - they taste good, and they're great for you.
While I agree with most of the posters about how "everything causes cancer," you have to admit that this list has some really good tips. - jnosanov, on 02/16/2008, -0/+1"Quit smoking?"
- saboo1618, on 02/19/2008, -0/+0good thing i like broccoli!
- loverslobby, on 02/21/2008, -0/+0thats a good compilation
- holysocks, on 02/16/2008, -0/+0in other words, be asian
- asherchang, on 02/16/2008, -0/+0#32: Don't go overboard with the antioxidants http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antioxidant#Adverse_e ...
#33: Organic foods aren't always better for you.
#34: (If you're a guy) Always empty your tubing regularly
#35: Make sure to have safe sex so you won't get HPV (It can cause cancer in both guys and girls) - asherchang, on 02/17/2008, -0/+0http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/health/20035 ...

Ok. - Yage2006, on 02/16/2008, -1/+1I did not read all of them but off the top there are some that have been dis proven.
Also many studies have shown that dietary supplements are not only ineffective but actually harmful to the body.
Readers Digest is not peer reviewed either. So I would take all of that with a big grain of salt. - Kaylasita87, on 02/17/2008, -1/+1There is no way of preventing cancer. It is stupid to try.
- goddamnyouall, on 02/17/2008, -0/+0sounds just like something the world would do.
goddamn you, world! - inactive, on 02/17/2008, -0/+0So if I stop being a lazyass, smoking, and eating horrible foods I'll reduce my risk of cancer?
Sounds like some liberal ***** to me. - TimberWolfGirl, on 02/27/2008, -0/+0Riddled with breast cancer in my family and damn right I'm going to listen to articles like this and believe that this works because my reality is I need to do what I can to prevent it (no matter the outcome) instead of treating it when it comes up. In the meantime live life to the fullest and best way I can. Just like people believe that religion helps them get through the day, I have to believe that this will help me. But whatever happens, happens.
