Avoiding a high fiber, low sodium diet is not a preventative measure to avoid cancer. In fact, consuming a diet high in fiber and low in sodium is recommended for reducing the risk of certain types of cancer. The other four options are all valid preventative measures, including increasing consumption of foods rich in vitamins A and C, avoiding salt-cured, pickled, or smoked foods, increasing consumption of vegetables from the cabbage family, and avoiding cigarette smoking, smokeless tobacco, and sunbathing.
