EBPI researchers Tina Lohse, David Fäh, Matthias Bopp, and Sabine
Rohrmann recently published their finding that following official cancer prevention recommendations (World Cancer Research Fund/American Institute for Cancer Research) is associated with reduced all-cause and cancer deaths. About 8% of premature cancer deaths are estimated to be preventable, if people follow these recommendations.
