Explanation:

1. Get Screened

Health screenings for women and those for men are tests used to uncover illness EARLY on, before symptoms APPEAR. Early detection of diseases such as cancer can make a significant difference in treatment and even life expectancy. Your doctor likely advises you of the tests you should undergo and when, but another good source of this information is MyHealthFinder.gov. This SITE features current health screening recommendations based on age and SEX from the USPSTF, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA).1

2. Don't Smoke

Smoking shortens both the length and quality of a person’s life. It's responsible for MANY diseases and is the leading preventable cause of death in the U.S.2 If you smoke, quitting is your number one health priority. The USPSTF recommends that healthcare providers counsel patients to stop smoking, and for those who are not pregnant, suggest FDA-approved smoking cessation medications.
