11. Drink green tea

According to the National Cancer Institute, there are countless studies that point out the benefits of drinking green tea on a regular basis. And although more research is needed to understand the link between green tea consumption and cancer, most studies suggest that green tea drinkers can lower their risk of developing colon, lung, prostate, ovarian, and breast cancer.

Some health experts think that the powerful compounds found in green tea are responsible for minimizing cancer risk.

12. Enjoy a glass of wine

Please name a better way to prevent cancer. Yeah, you can’t… thought so. Generally, alcohol can protect against Helicobacter pylori, the bacterium that can lead to ulcers, therefore stomach cancer. A study conducted at Queens University found that moderate amounts of alcohol, wine included, can guard you against H. pylori.

However, do not exaggerate. Drinking more than two alcoholic beverages per day can actually maximize your risk of developing throat, liver, breast, and esophageal cancer.
