This is an interesting title by Dr. Raphael E. Cuomo, a professor at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine. The main argument is that addictive behavior makes us more susceptible to cancer. Addiction is not only about substance abuse, alcohol or smoking, but also in many other forms in our modern society. These include addiction to social media or other "screen forms" and the desire for unprocessed food.

Dr. Cuomo details these mechanisms, such as weakening our immune system, increasing chronic inflammation, abandoning insulin signaling and debilitating repair mechanisms, thus detailing their cancer risks. Fortunately, this all improves it all by reducing screen time, better sleep, better eating and exercise. This list is very similar to what you will read about lifestyle and aging, so for me it is more motivated to continue to work on lifestyle measures that I have pursued healthy aging. I highly recommend this interesting and well-written book.
