Lymphoma Cancer

Prevention

The risk of lymphoma can be reduced by:

• Maintaining a healthy BMR
• Avoiding activities that increase the chance of getting infected with AIDS and hepatitis C
• Avoiding unnecessary exposure to harmful chemicals and radiation, as overexposure to industrial and agricultural chemicals enhances the risk of lymphoma
• Getting regularly screened after the age of 50
• Quitting smoking
