Aim for 150\u2013300 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity per week or 75\u2013100 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity. You can also try to do muscle-strengthening activities at least twice a week. Include physical activities like walking, biking, gardening, dancing, swimming, climbing stairs, yoga, pilates and resistance training.<\/p>\n<h3>Limit alcohol consumption<\/h3>\n<p>Limiting alcohol consumption can reduce your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adityabirlacapital.com\/healthinsurance\/active-together\/2022\/02\/09\/what-can-you-do-to-reduce-your-risk-of-cervical-cancer\/\"><strong>risk of cancer<\/strong><\/a>.

Going for a walk\/jog\/run early in the morning when the sun rises is advisable. The sun is at its peak around 12 p.m.- 2 p.m., which can mean direct harmful sunlight exposure.<\/p>\n<p>To avoid unhealthy exposure to the sun, you can:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Wear sunscreen. Apply it 30 minutes before going outside, and reapply every 2 hours, especially after swimming or sweating.<\/li>\n<li>Wear protective clothing like long-sleeved shirts, pants, and a hat with a wide brim. Cotton clothes are a breathable fabric and a great option to choose from, offering the best protection.<\/li>\n<li>Wear sunglasses that block UV light.<\/li>\n<li>Use a lip balm with at least SPF 15.<\/li>\n<li>Avoid tanning beds and sunlamps, which are artificial sources of UV exposure that can damage skin cells.<\/li>\n<li>Apply UV-protective window film to your car or home windows.<\/li>\n<li>Regularly check your entire skin for signs of skin cancer, such as spots, bumps, bleeding sores, warts and ulcers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong id=\"Important-preventive-measures\">Important preventive measures<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/protect.checkpoint.com\/v2\/r05\/___https:\/\/www.who.int\/activities\/preventing-cancer___.YXBzMTphZGl0eWFiaXJsYWNhcGl0YWw6YzpvOmYxYTBkNTFkZTQzZDY3MGNmZjczNzYwYWIzN2Q2OTQwOjc6MzkxZjphZDA1MGQzYjY0OGU4Nzk5ZWYxNmY5YTFhNGU4MDIxODM1MTA2OTM5YjE4Njk1NTE4YTA0ODUzZjBmMDVjYzcwOnA6VDpO\"><b>According to WHO<\/b><\/a>, 30\u201350% of all cancer cases are preventable.
