Smoking

Alcohol
Drinking alcohol contributes to tissue damage, leading to DNA changes in the cells and gradually cancer. It even prevents DNA repair and suppression of tumor immune surveillance.
No Physical activities/obesity

Overweight
Overweight and obese people are more likely to get cancer. Obesity is strongly associated with changes in the physiological function of the adipose tissue, leading to insulin resistance and chronic inflammation.
