Education linked to cancer

In fact the more educated that you are the less likely it would appear to die from cancer, according to research done by the American cancer society, people who have been educated to degree level have a 76% reduced risk of dying from cancer, which is astonishing.

There are also no boundaries, as higher education would have the same effect on people no matter what their race, age or sex.

The difference is not being educated as such, but by the person understanding the dangers of taking risks etc, while some people feel that smoking is fine, the more educated person weigh up the pros and cons to find that by taking risks may be ok for some, the danger is still there so best avoid it.
