Diet and exercise


Diet, physical inactivity, and obesity are related to approximately 30–35% of cancer cases.[1][15] In the United States excess body weight is associated with the development of many types of cancer and is a factor in 14–20% of all cancer deaths.[15] Physical inactivity is believed to contribute to cancer risk not only through its effect on body weight but also through negative effects on immune system and endocrine system.[15]
Diets that are low in vegetables, fruits and whole grains, and high in processed or red meats are linked with a number of cancers.

Immigrants develop the risk of their new country, often within one generation, suggesting a substantial link between diet and cancer.[18]
