Each colored dot represents a different type of cancer, and they are placed on the body to show where each cancer typically occurs.

To reduce the risk of cancers associated with overweight and obesity, here are some straightforward steps you can take:

1. Eat a Balanced Diet: Eat plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Limit processed foods, sugars, and fats.

    

2. Regular Physical Activity: Aim for at least 40 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise, such as working out or running.

    

3. Maintain a Healthy Weight: Keep your body weight within a healthy range for height and age. Even a small weight loss (such as 5% of your current weight) can significantly improve health.

    

4. Regular Check-ups: Visit your healthcare provider regularly to monitor your health and manage any conditions that could contribute to weight gain, like thyroid disorders.

    

5. Limit Alcohol and Avoid Smoking: Both smoking and excessive alcohol consumption can increase your risk of cancer, compounding the risks associated with obesity.
