However, new research indicates that it is perhaps behavioral factors above all else that most frequently cause individuals to develop cancer. The riskiest behavior identified by researchers is, unsurprisingly, smoking. Other behavioral risk factors include excessive weight, exposure to UV rays, lack of physical activity, alcohol consumption, diets that do not include sufficient levels of vegetables and fruits, and diets that are too high in consumption of processed and red meats. The researchers&rsquo; findings suggest that humans can take proactive steps to minimize their risk of developing cancer.<\/p>\n<p id=\"takeawayheader\">Key Takeaways:<\/p>\n<ul id=\"takeaways\">\n<li id=\"takeaway1\">Studies show that changes to&nbsp;one&#8217;s lifestyle can help&nbsp;one to avoid up to 42% of cases and 45% of deaths caused by cancer.<\/li>\n<li id=\"takeaway2\">Smoking, obesity, drinking, excess UV exposure, lack of exercise, and unhealthy diets low in produce and high in processed red meat are all contributing factors of cancer.<\/li>\n<li id=\"takeaway3\">Lifestyle changes&nbsp;one can make to reduce risk of cancer include not smoking, drinking kava instead of alcohol, weight loss plans, special workouts, and increased vegetable consumption.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"quote\">&#8220;This study demonstrates that while all cancers may not be avoidable, a large percentage of them are within&nbsp;one&#8217;s control.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"readmoretext\">Read more: <\/span><a id=\"source\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.bulletproof.com\/cancer-prevention-study\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/blog.bulletproof.com\/cancer-prevention-study\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"task_trail\" style=\"display: none;\">(abstract 3M7OI89LVYO612L159IFER0JS6HC6Z 35L9RVQFCOIK75KBDLZLT870JKOHUI A23CTGXNDDW5LC)(authorquote 3XT3KXP24ZYXE571XJE1PUYE5B46IY 3TDXMTX3CBUZ1P5UNLJ3DEUZGBU6I7 A34MRQ1OP87XC6)(keypoints 36AZSFEYZ4086N8WSHUSFZA0RECVB6 3570Y55XZPJNOI953GESBT1C08ZGYT A224B7BAQ0MZSN)<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are a number of factors in a person&rsquo;s life that can potentially be the cause of cancer, including genetic history, environment, and more.
