Cancer prevention: a personalized paramedical pathway — COS

Some people have a genetic predisposition to cancer. However, while genetics alone cannot explain the alarming rise in cancer rates in the Western world, our lifestyles can. In France, 4 out of 10 cancers could be prevented by reducing risk factors, which include smoking, alcohol, a poorly balanced diet and sedentary living.

It has been proven that stopping smoking, reducing alcohol consumption, eating a balanced diet and taking regular exercise can help combat the development of cancer. More specifically, reducing your alcohol consumption reduces the frequency of esophageal and mouth cancer. Lower salt consumption reduces the incidence of stomach cancer.

COS is on hand to coordinate the paramedical care of anyone seeking to reduce the risk of developing cancer in the future. Our package of cancer prevention services is naturally tailored to individual requirements. We are able to offer the following services:

• Personalized nutritional rebalancing
• A sports coaching service to guide you in resuming a suitable form of exercise
• Help to give up smoking and other additions

This means that if you have smoked for many years, the COS team can offer you a tailor-made support package designed to help you stop smoking at your own pace. Similarly, a nutritionist can study your eating habits and advise you on a healthy, balanced diet. You can then leave your bad habits where they belong – in the past!
