Abstract
This review highlights the critical role of adolescence in establishing lifelong health habits to prevent cancer. Key strategies include promoting healthy diets, physical activity, and sun protection. It also emphasizes the importance of educating adolescents about the risks of tobacco and alcohol, promoting HPV vaccination, and addressing mental well-being. Combating adolescent obesity and understanding genetic and environmental factors are also discussed. Effective prevention requires a multi-stakeholder, evidencebased approach.
