Reject tobacco.

No matter how many years you have been smoking, no matter how old you are, please make up your mind to quit smoking immediately. Quitting smoking can not only reduce the incidence of lung cancer, but also achieve better therapeutic effect for patients with lung cancer. After quitting smoking, the carcinogenic toxins deposited in your body will gradually reduce, and gradually restore your immune function, strengthen your physical strength, and prevent cancer and other diseases.

Reduce the impact of environmental pollution.

Try to avoid going out and exercising when the air pollution is serious, wear masks when traveling, and install efficient range hood in the living environment, such as kitchen, reduce the use of solid fuel, install air purifiers, etc.

Stay away from occupational hazard factors.

Producers avoid or reduce direct exposure to known carcinogenic factors, strengthen personal protection, regular physical examination, and so on.

Develop good living and eating habits: regular life, exercise, increase immunity, eat more vegetables and fruits.

Eat less foods that are high in fat and cholesterol.

Get into the habit of regular physical examination.

At present, there is no reliable evidence that lung cancer can be passed on to the next generation. However, family members' similar living environment, eating habits, genetic background and work and rest patterns, especially family members smoking, will increase the risk of lung cancer, and sometimes show the phenomenon of family aggregation of lung cancer. There is no evidence that lung cancer is contagious, but some carcinogens, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis, are contagious.
