Cancer
Over 500,000 Americans die from cancer every year. Cancer is a disease in which abnormal cells develop in an organ and can spread throughout the body destroying healthy tissue. The growth of these abnormal cells is caused by damage and changes in your DNA. These changes can be caused by your own habits, your environment, or your family history. Half of all men and one-third of all women in the United States will develop cancer in their lifetimes. Luckily, some cancers can be prevented and others can be successfully treated.
