Have you been screened for colorectal cancer?
During this National , learn how screening can detect colorectal cancer early — and even prevent it entirely. Early detection through screening has helped the colorectal cancer death rate drop over the past several decades. Colorectal cancer screening can help to:
• Find colorectal cancer early, when treatment is most effective.
• Prevent cancer from developing. Cancer in the colon or re**um often starts as a polyp. Most of these polyps are benign (not cancerous) but could become cancerous if not removed.
• Find bleeding that you can't see, which may mean you have a polyp.

Did you know that HPV (human papillomavirus) can lead to several types of cancer in men and women? Getting an HPV vaccine can prevent over 90% of those cancers! Raising public awareness helps to improve the understanding of HPV and the importance of prevention, screening, diagnosis and treatment of HPV related diseases.

COMER BIEN DURANTE EL TRATAMIENTO PARA CÁNCER

Hola, hoy vamos a hablar de cómo podemos ayudar a nuestros familiares y amigos si están recibiendo tratamientos para combatir el cáncer a través de una mejor alimentación. Sé que nos es fácil, pero cambiando/añadiendo algunos alimentos estos pueden tener más alternativas para sus comidas.
¿Porque es importante una buena nutrición mientras recibe tratamiento para el cáncer? Como sabemos comer equivale a salud. Es por eso por lo que las personas en tratamiento para cáncer deben tener una buena alimentación pues así aumentan el proceso de su sanación. Al comer más sano estará proveyendo a su cuerpo de cosas buenas, como por ejemplo vitaminas, minerales, aminoácidos, fibras y otros. Lo que consume puede hacer que usted se sienta mejor y tengan menos efectos negativos.

Por eso hoy quiero compartir una receta saludable y fácil de preparar:
Ingredientes
4 onzas de queso mozarela
Pimiento rojo asado (en botella de Goya o Cento) cortado en tiritas (al gusto)
1 taza de rúguela (Arugula)
1 pan franceses (French baguette) o pan de agua o panecillos o cualquier pan similar, cortado por la mitad
2 cucharadas de salsa pesto
1 cucharada de queso parmesano rayado
Preparación
Unte a cada lado del pan la salsa pesto. Añada el queso mozarela a ambos lados del pan y encima ponga los pimientos rojos y la rúguela (arugula). Luego forme un “sándwich”. Póngalos en la presa para paninos o en su horno (puede utilizar alguna olla pesada para aplastarlos) por espacio de 3 a 5 minutos. Añada al final el queso parmesano y espere de uno a dos minutos hasta que el queso se haya derretido. También lo puede hacer en un salten, aplastando el pan con una espátula. Rinde de dos a tres porciones.
