We often imagine cancer as something that arrives suddenly unexpected, unannounced, life-altering.

But what if many risks don’t arrive overnight? What if they grow quietly, day by day, through habits that feel normal, convenient, even harmless?

Highly processed foods, excess salt, packaged meals, quick fixes ....they have slowly woven themselves into our daily lives, especially for this generation. Over time, these choices can influence inflammation, cellular health, and long-term disease risk often without clear warning signs.

In this thoughtful conversation, Dr Tapaswini Pradhan, Senior Consultant : Head & Neck Oncosurgery, at Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals, New Delhi/ Noida, reflects on what clinicians witness over years of practice: the subtle but powerful role diet plays in shaping cancer risk.

This is not about fear. It’s about awareness. About gently asking ourselves: What are my everyday food choices preparing my body for?

Because prevention rarely begins with a diagnosis. It begins with informed, mindful decisions.

“I do it and use it once in a while… so it should be fine, right?”
That’s one of the most common assumptions doctors hear. But risk doesn’t always wait for heavy or long-term use.

Remember, even “occasional” habits can slowly increase your cancer risk, often without obvious warning signs. To***co in any form, whether smoking, chewing, consuming supari, or gutkha, carries harm. Add alcohol, and the risk compounds. What many don’t realise is how these everyday choices work silently over time, long before symptoms appear.

In this part, Dr Tapaswini Pradhan, Senior Consultant – Head & Neck Oncosurgery at Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals, New Delhi-Noida, explains why to***co and alcohol are medically proven carcinogens and how delayed awareness changes real lives. Because when you understand the why, you’re far better equipped to protect yourself and the people you care about.

with Dr Tapaswini Pradhan 👩‍⚕️ : Your future is not written on your palm, it is written in your courage.....

Never believe that the lines of your hand decide your destiny… Because even those who do not have hands still hold dreams, strength, and a future full of possibilities. 💫

Life may have rewritten parts of your story, but it has not taken away the pen. The journey may be heavy. Some days test your patience, faith, and hope. But happiness grows when we choose to notice the good, kind words, supportive hands, moments of peace, and inner strength we never knew we had, even in broken moments. 🤍

Happiness doesn’t come from everything being perfect. It comes from choosing to see light even when the road feels dark. From finding hope in small victories, strength in each breath, and meaning in every sunrise you witness. So be happy, not because life has been easy, but because you chose courage over despair, hope over fear. Every step you take, even the smallest one, is proof that your future is alive, waiting, and meaningful. 🌈

Believe this: even on the hardest days, there is something good waiting to be noticed. And as long as you can see good in something, hope will never leave you, and you are never alone in this journey.
I walk with you — always. 💞

With warmth and belief,
Dr Tapaswini Pradhan 👩‍⚕️

with Dr Tapaswini Pradhan 👩‍⚕️ : When Life becomes a song 🎶.......

Life plays its own tune sometimes joyful, sometimes painfully slow. And there are moments when the lyrics vanish, leaving only questions behind. There are moments when you forget the words to your own life. Moments when the journey feels too heavy to sing along. And that is okay.

Because even when the lyrics fade, life continues through the melody offered by others , a caring hand, a listening heart, a loved one who stays beside you in silence. As long as good souls surround you, as long as compassion hums softly around you, life’s music never truly stops.

Hold onto those who bring music into your days. Let their love guide your steps. The song continues.....softer, deeper, stronger.... always.

With faith and warmth,
Dr. Tapaswini Pradhan 👩‍⚕️🌿🎶

As Dr. Tapaswini explains, the word “cancer” is more than just a medical term; it represents a conversation we all need to have.

In this podcast, she goes beyond the origin of the word cancer, using it only as a starting point. She explains how cancer actually develops, why early awareness is crucial, how common myths and misconceptions delay diagnosis, and how informed conversations can genuinely improve outcomes.

The full episode focuses on understanding cancer without fear — through facts, clarity, and compassion.

🎧 We encourage everyone to watch Dr. Tapaswini’s podcast, listen mindfully, and share it forward.
Awareness remains one of the most powerful tools we have in the fight against cancer.

with Dr Tapaswini Pradhan 👩‍⚕️ : Life is never a straight, smooth path.....

Life is never a straight, smooth path. It twists, it tests, it teaches. Life is woven with delicate threads, joy and sorrow, hope and uncertainty, challenges and miracles. Its real beauty lies not in perfection, but in the way each moment teaches us something about ourselves.

To our brave patients and survivors, you live this truth every single day. You have been given battles no one should face…yet you stand tall with a heart that refuses to give up.

Life’s problems are often painful, but they are also powerful teachers. They show us our resilience, our capacity to endure, our ability to love even when we’re hurting.

Every lesson you’ve learned through tears, through courage, through quiet nights, has carved a strength within you that shines brighter than any suffering.

Always remember, you are more than your challenges; you are the wisdom that grows from them.

With compassion and faith,
– Dr Tapaswini Pradhan 🌿✨

Many conditions affecting the mouth, tongue, throat, and voice box begin with small changes that are easy to overlook — yet these early signs often hold the key to timely diagnosis.

In India, most people seek help only after symptoms progress, not because the disease appears suddenly, but because early indicators are subtle and easily dismissed. A quick self-check or clinical screening can detect abnormal changes long before they become serious, making early evaluation truly lifesaving.

with Dr Tapaswini Pradhan 👩‍⚕️ : Coal darkens everything it touches… but a diamond shines quietly after surviving pressure. 🌙✨

Life is not always gentle. It throws challenges we never asked for, pain we never imagined, and moments where giving up feels easier than holding on.

But our dear friends,
The true question is - What do you choose to become under pressure?

Coal breaks. Coal spreads darkness. But a diamond… a diamond holds the pressure, endures the fire, survives the darkness - and comes out shining in silence.

Our dearest warriors… Many of you have lived this truth - your treatments, your fears, your sleepless nights have pressed you from all sides… yet you rise, you smile, you fight again.

This is not ordinary strength — this is diamond strength. Strength that is forged, not found. Strength born from suffering, but glowing with grace. Your courage has already carved you into something rare… something radiant… something that carries light even on the darkest nights.

You are not what tried to break you. You are what you choose to rise as. And to me —

You are all diamonds. 💎✨

With love and unending prayers,
– Dr Tapaswini Pradhan. 💛✨

with Dr Tapaswini Pradhan 👩‍⚕️ : You too can evolve through every season life brings....

Life keeps changing its shades — sometimes bright with hope, sometimes heavy with shadows. But just like every changing colour of a leaf carries its own quiet beauty, every changing situation in our lives carries its own hidden meaning.✨

For all our dear warriors and survivors…
Some days feel too hard, too heavy, too uncertain. But remember this gently - when you spread your wings of faith and allow God’s spirit to lift you, no obstacle is too great, no night too dark, and no storm too powerful.

Trust the season you’re in. Trust the God who carries you through it. And trust the new colours your soul is learning to bloom in. 🌿💗

With all my prayers,
Dr Tapaswini Pradhan👩‍⚕️
