AB  - The  prevention  of  disease  has  become  an  increasingly  important  focus  in  the  past  two  decades  for  patients,  their  health  care  providers,  and  insurers.1-3  Worldwide,  scientists  and  population  health  experts  are  uncovering  the  impact  that  genetics  and  the  environment,  individually  and  in  combination,  have  on  the  development  of  particular  diseases.  Heart  disease  has  historically  been  the  leading  cause  of  death  in  the  United  States  and  remains  a  focus  for  primary  prevention  through  pharmacologic  (aspirin,  statins)  and  lifestyle  interventions  (tobacco  cessation,  weight  loss,  diet  modification).4,5  Cancer  however  was  a  “close  second”  as  a  cause  for  death  in  the  United  States  in  2010  and  is  expected  to  surpass  heart  disease  as  the  primary  cause  for  mortality  in  the  next  decade.6  Cancer  prevention,  therefore  is  positioned  to  become  an  important  adjunct  to  primary  cancer  therapy.
