Fourteen Simple Things You Can Do To Reduce Your Risk for Breast Cancer
As a retired diagnostic radiologist who read way too many mammograms I am
excited because I finally have a path to try to connect to so many women who
are having and have had mammograms. I was always chagrined since we would
really torture and radiate many breasts but it was as if these breasts were
not connected to a human type person. It bothered me that so many
mammography programs make no effort at all to educate their clientele about
what "they can do" to reduce their risks of breast cancer. I would suggest
to the directors of these programs that we try to educate the patients and
their response was 100% predictable. They would always first deny the
relationship between diet and breast cancer and then add that their patients
would not listen anyway.
*01. Increase your consumption of fresh, organic fruits and vegetables.*
Increasing your consumption of fresh organic fruits and vegetables has been
shown to reduce the risk for breast cancer.
"There is strong evidence from epidemiologic studies that eating more fruits
and vegetables decreases a woman's risk of developing breast cancer. This
conclusion is strengthened by the similar results obtained from animal
studies and experiments using isolated breast cells." Quoted from the
Cornell University Program on Breast Cancer and Environmental Risk Factors.
They go on to recommend uncooked fruits and vegetables. The reason for this
is the heating damages some of the beneficial nutrients in the fruits and
vegetables. Carrots, squash, sweet potatoes, broccoli and spinach top the
list for being most protective. The Cornell study however does not stress
the fact that these need to be "organic." Non-organic commercial fruits and
vegetables besides being largely nutritionally bereft are also heavily
sprayed with a wide variety of toxins.
*02. Avoid using any pesticides or chemical sprays in your home. Try to
avoid new carpet.*
The relationship between pesticides and other toxic chemicals such as
benzene and toluene and cancer has long been established. There are better
ways to rid your house of undesired guests than using chemical sprays. It
sounds difficult but even if you can't get rid of all your pests you will
live a longer and healthier life if you refrain from spraying. New carpet is
another source of extremely toxic chemicals that "off gas" for at least a
year or so after it is installed. Try to avoid new carpet especially in
children's rooms.
