Is cancer a nutrient thief?

Johns Hopkins shares 5 early cancer signs that we highlight in our training — these will surprise you!

Cancer can steal your energy as it uses your body's nutrients and energy to grow and advance.

Extreme exhaustion/fatigue that persists and doesn't get better with rest — It doesn't mean you have cancer, but it can be an early sign of cancer to talk to your doctor about (Use our Two-Week Rule!).
Fever is a common and temporary symptom of colds, flu, and infection, but it can also be an early warning sign of cancer.

If you don't suspect illness or infection and you're getting persistent, recurring fevers, particularly at night and maybe even with sweating, it's time to call your doctor.

3 MORE SYMPTOMS NOT TO IGNORE

💪Cancer Survivors Inspire Generosity and Action

The DetecTogether's Gala, Auction, and Golf Tournament was a great success! We raised 1.2 million dollars! The event brought together survivors and kind-hearted, passionate supporters to champion our life-saving mission.

As the only nonprofit dedicated to teaching early cancer detection, DetecTogether empowers individuals to take action and save their own lives. Hearing the heartfelt stories of survivors inspired us all.

The enthusiastic participation in the Auction demonstrated guests’ commitment to the cause, ensuring that more people can benefit from the power of early cancer detection education.
