Description
What killed 600 K men and women in 2020? Nope not Covid. Even in 2020, the second leading cause of death behind heart disease is Cancer. Sadly everyone has forgotten about the original C word. With the pandemic, Cancer screenings plummeted and people have lost focus on their true health risks. While breast cancer is the most common cancer in women and prostate cancer is the most common in men, the number one cancer killer is still lung cancer. Most people don’t even know that there IS screening available & recommended for those at high risk. Today we cover the current and updated cancer screening recommendations & summarize the gold standard recommendations from the USPSTF ( US Preventive Services Task Force) While the pandemic may have you concerned, don’t let it distract you from prioritizing your health.
