Cuppa For CANSA

Invest in your health - detect men's cancers early

New research shows men have a greater risk of developing cancer. “All men should invest in their health by learning how to detect men’s cancers early and by living a healthy balanced lifestyle” said Sue Janse van Rensburg, CEO of CANSA. Read more...

A healthy balanced lifestyle includes:

  • Not using any tobacco products
  • Eating high fibre and low fat foods
  • Drinking lots of fresh clean water
  • Getting plenty of exercise
  • Watching your weight

Smoking is the single biggest cause of cancer in the world. Over 44000 South Africans die from tobacco-related diseases annually. Read more...
