The article is based on a study conducted by the authorswhich had the primary objective of researching on various health issues and ideas which are of significant value in the life of individuals.

Most of the diseases when recognized at an earlier stage before spreading to the rest of the body, is easily controlled. Unfortunately, this is not the case with the majority of cancer patients realize cancer when it has already advanced. The primary preventive measures are put in place before the occurrence of the final illness.
