Studies Support Simple Steps To Prevent Illness, Improve Health

Staying healthy needn’t be a complicated affair, according to five multinational studies. In reviews of scientific literature, researchers found, for example, that frequently eating fresh fish reduces the risk of colorectal cancer, one of the deadliest forms of cancer. A meta-analysis of 14 studies found that unconventional smoking cessation aids, like  acupuncture and hypnotherapy, were a significant help in quitting smoking. Other simple steps toward a healthier life: regular teeth cleaning to improve cardiovascular health and using low-dose aspirin to reduce cancer risk.
