OVERVIEW

The content of this enduring activity is derived from expert-led sessions presented at HerHealth Oncology Summit 2025, a live oncology-focused educational conference..

This CME/CE course offers a compelling exploration into how lifestyle factors can significantly influence cancer risk and outcomes. Drawing on decades of clinical and research insights, the session examines the physiological impact of chronic stress, the protective role of mindfulness, the anti-inflammatory effects of nutrition, and the immune-enhancing benefits of physical activity.

Participants will learn how chronic stress alters immune response and cellular function, increasing the risk of cancer progression. Mindfulness practices have been shown to reduce inflammation and improve telomere length. The course also delves into evidence linking obesity, poor diet, and inactivity to increased cancer incidence and how plant-forward diets and moderate exercise can mitigate these risks.

Designed for physicians and nurses, this course equips healthcare professionals with actionable strategies to support patient well-being through integrative, preventive approaches, placing lifestyle at the forefront of cancer prevention and survivorship care.

  • Describe how chronic stress affects cancer risk and explain the role of mindfulness in mitigating its impact.
  • Identify the connections between nutrition, inflammation, and cancer prevention.
