 Tips Help Prevent Breast Cancer
Breast cancer is a disease in which cells in the breast grow out of control. There are different
kinds of breast cancer. The kind of breast cancer depends on which cells in the breast turn into
cancer. The most common kinds of breast cancer are karsinoma duktul invasif and karsinoma
lobular invasive. The chance of a woman developing breast cancer during her life is a little less
than 1 in 8, according to the American Cancer Society. It is critical to get regular screenings and
maintain overall good health in order to prevent breast problems such as breast cancer. Here is a
list of other things you can do.
1. Perform monthly breast self-exams.
2. Receive regular mammograms. This is especially important for those with one or more
risk factors and those over a certain age.
3. Wear a properly fit bra . Use a sports bra for exercising and make sure you are measured
properly for the best fit for any bra.
4. Maintain a safe weight and avoid obesity
5. Exercise regularly. The American Heart Association recommends that individuals do
moderate exercise for at least 150 minutes per week, or 75 minutes per week of vigorous
exercise.
6. Reduce fat intake and eat fruits, vegetables and other high fiber foods.
7. Keep alcohol consumption to a minimum. Alcohol is considered a macronutrient in that it
provides energy (about 7 calories per gram). The equivalent of a 1-ounce shot of liquor is
approximately 80 to 90 calories.
8. Stop smoking. Smoking is the main culprit in heart disease, strokes, bronchitis and
emphysema, and gastric ulcers and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and
various diseases including breast cancer.
If you have any symptoms of breast cancer, such as a mass, changes in skin or nipple,
nipple discharge, changes in the size or shape or pain, you should speak to your doctor.
