Healthy News You Can Use
Understanding Pancreatic Cancer
The pancreas is a gland that produces a hormone which helps us control our blood sugar levels. However, when this gland becomes cancerous, the symptoms are so similar to other disorders, it is not caught at an early stage. This results in the spread of the cancer - making it one of the deadliest of cancers.
Click here to discover its risk factors and symptoms. Should you have any of the symptoms contact your primary care physician.
Are You at Risk for Lung Cancer
The sooner lung cancer is diagnosed, the better the chances for survival. Until recently, however, early detection has been difficult - which may be one reason why lung cancer remains the No. 1 cancer killer of both men and women in the U.S.
The good news is that now doctors have a screening test that can catch lung cancer early. It's called low-dose computed tomography (LDCT). Anyone at high risk for lung cancer should get an annual LDCT lung cancer screening.
To learn if you are at high risk and would benefit from an LDCT screening,
