Of course, avoiding unhealthy habits like smoking and drinking are important steps people can take to prevent cancer. But did you know dietary supplements can also play an important role in reducing your risk of getting cancer? Let&#8217;s take a look at the surprising benefits of dietary supplements for reducing cancer risks.\u00a0<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><h3>What Are Dietary Supplements?\u00a0<\/h3><div>Dietary supplements are nutrients, such as vitamins and minerals, taken orally in the form of pills or capsules. They can be used to prevent deficiencies that may occur due to poor nutrition or health issues. For example, pregnant women may take folic acid as a supplement because their body may not produce enough on its own during this time period. There is some evidence that dietary supplements can reduce the risk of certain types of cancers, but more research is needed to understand how exactly they work in this area.<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><h3>The Benefits of Dietary Supplements\u00a0<\/h3><div>There have been studies examining the correlation between certain dietary supplements and cancer prevention. Some findings suggest that calcium, vitamin D, and omega-3 fatty acids may help reduce the risk of certain types of cancer. Additionally, vitamin C has been shown to have anti-cancer properties and may help protect against some types of tumors. However, it is important to note that these studies were conducted on animals or cells in a lab setting and more research is needed before any definitive conclusions can be made regarding the effectiveness of dietary supplements in humans for cancer prevention.\u00a0<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div>Although more research is needed regarding the overall effectiveness of dietary supplementation in cancer prevention, you can still act now to improve and\/or maintain your overall health. The supplements in my <strong><u><a href=\"https:\/\/drnicollemd.com\/maxhealth-nutraceuticals\/maxhealth-total-wellness-bundle\/\">MaxHealth Total Wellness Bundle<\/a><\/u><\/strong> may provide the extra boost you need.<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div><a href=\"https:\/\/drnicollemd.com\/supplements\/maxhealth-total-wellness-bundle\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-38597 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/drnicollemd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/MaxHealth-Total-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"MaxHealth Total Wellness Bundle\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drnicollemd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/MaxHealth-Total-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/drnicollemd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/MaxHealth-Total-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/drnicollemd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/MaxHealth-Total-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/drnicollemd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/MaxHealth-Total-600x600.png 600w, https:\/\/drnicollemd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/MaxHealth-Total-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/drnicollemd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/MaxHealth-Total-610x610.png 610w, https:\/\/drnicollemd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/MaxHealth-Total-96x96.png 96w, https:\/\/drnicollemd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/MaxHealth-Total.png 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><p>These are my favorite Wellness and Immune-Boosting Supplements to use!

Eating healthy foods such as fruits and vegetables will provide your body with essential vitamins and minerals that cannot be found in supplement form alone; thus helping lower your risk for disease. In addition, maintaining a healthy weight through regular exercise will also help reduce your risk for developing certain types of cancers.\u00a0<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><h3>Food For Thought<\/h3><div>While more research needs to be done on the effects of dietary supplements on cancer prevention specifically, there is evidence suggesting they could be beneficial in reducing one\u2019s risk for certain cancers when combined with healthy eating habits and regular exercise. Ultimately it&#8217;s up to you to decide if taking dietary supplements is right for you\u2014consulting with your doctor before doing so is always recommended! Whatever you decide though make sure you keep up with healthy habits like eating right and exercising regularly\u2014these practices remain key components towards reducing one\u2019s risk for developing cancer!<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Please talk with your doctor about any complementary health approaches, including supplements, you use.
