Fewer Canadians are Dying from Cancer

Despite declining rates of lung cancer, prostate cancer, breast cancer, colorectal cancer and pancreatic cancer the overall number of cancer cases diagnosed and number of cancer deaths is rising steadily due to population growth and aging. About half of all cancer deaths are preventable principally through lifestyle changes.

Consider implementing a workplace wellness program that focuses on key lifestyle habits that contribute to overall health and well being including healthy eating, weight management, physical activity, smoking cessation and stress management.
