Yeah - the article doesn't say much and lacks specifics.
There are certainly cancers that are due to "bad luck" or "bad genetics". You can't worry too much about those.
But do you want to control as much cancer as possible? There are simple rules:
1. Do not smoke.
2. Minimize consumption of grilled and preserved meats.
3. Eat lots of fruits, vegetables, and berries.
4. If you live in an area with lots of granite in the ground, have your basement and your well water tested for radon and mitigate it if needed.
And that's it! How important are these steps? Studies for decades have shown that smokers who regularly eat broccoli and carrots have about 40% less lung cancer than those who don't regularly eat them. (and no - taking Vitamin A supplements doesn't work!)
