6 Things You Can Do To Prevent Breast Cancer.

With 49 000 new cases and 11 000 deaths per year, breast cancer has experienced a doubling of cases during the past 25 years. And yet, we can prevent this cancer by some simple habits. The risk of breast cancer may be lowered, so play your part!

Just like it is for lung cancer, the causes of breast cancer are easily identified, Only recently a number of these factors have been formally recognized by the light of specific studies. So lets take a look at what you can to to prevent breast cancer and live a healthy life.

Eat less and better.

Again, food is central to the prevention of cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, but also breast cancer, Food is also responsible in the occurrence of a second cancer. Regardless of overweight, trans fats (pastries, pizza, etc.) are increasing by more than double the risk of breast cancer. If it adds an overweight (especially in case of breakdown "android" fat, in short a big belly), the fatty tissue acts like a gland secretory estrogen promoters of cancer, especially after menopause.

Keep Moving!

Thirty minutes of real physical activity (not just vacuuming and ironing!)
would reduce the risk of breast cancer by 30 to 40%. Keeping your body in shape is one of the best weapon against all form of cancers. It may be difficult at first to get out and doing some physical activities but the rewards are fantastic. A simple bicycle ride every day is enough to stay in shape. So let's move!

Drink less than one glass of alcohol per day.

Once the equivalent of 10 grams (one glass), the rate of circulating hormones (estrogen always) grows, as does the risk of tumor growth, especially breast. The risk increase by 9% every 10 grams of alcohol ingested. Alcohol is one of the worst enemy for pregnant women.

Make your first baby around 25 years old.

This factor is the "heavy" in terms of risk ... At least 20% of cancers would be redundant due to the increasingly late age of the first full-term pregnancy, which is nearly 30 years today.

Nurse your baby ideally for 6 months.

The risk decreases with the number of children and especially if they were breastfed: endogène secretion of estrogen are dropping considerably during pregnancy and weaning.

Protect yourself against xenoestrogens.

A xenophobic estrogen is a chemical compound, which is recognized by a living organism as an estrogen.

You must especially avoid periods where your body is changing and more vulnerable to hormonal changes, ie when you are pregnant of a baby girl (for him to avoid breast cancer later.

Breast cancer accounts for one third of new cancers in women. If it is detected early, it is better supported. Women with breast cancer benefit from treatment tailored to their pathology. Four technologies are mainly used. In order of importance: surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and hormone therapy. Since the year 2000 medical advance has been made on all fronts in the fight against breast cancer. Early detection and treatment are essential to defeat the disease.

Good Luck!

Male Breast Cancer

When you mention the words breast cancer you would generally think of women who would be prone to this death dealing disease. The real fact is that many men can have breast cancer, and suffer the same ill effects as women do. Male breast cancer may be treated with surgery, chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, and radiation treatment. Breast cancer in men is associated with diseases or body conditions that increase estrogen exposure or that have effects similar to increased estrogen exposure. Body conditions that decrease levels of the male reproductive hormones, androgens, have also been associated. Male breast cancer is most commonly found through the discovery of a lump or thickening in the breast similar to that occurring in women. Usually this abnormal lump is painless and found accidentally.

Treatment depends on the type and stage of the breast cancer. Surgical and radiation options for men may differ from those available for women. Treatment for male breast cancer is usually a mastectomy, which is surgery to remove the breast. Other treatments include radiation, chemotherapy and or hormone therapy. Treatment tends to be the same as that for women with breast cancer of the same type and stage.

Tests such as x-rays and CT scans will usually give enough information for doctors to classify the stage of cancer growth. In some cases, it will also be necessary to examine a piece of the tumor to properly classify it. Testosterone can be kept at normal levels with bioidentical testosterone to help prevent these symptoms and diseases. Many men diagnosed with depression and taking antidepressants do better with bioidentical testosterone replacement instead. Male breast cancer is a real and serious problem; it no longer can be viewed as a major concern for women only. Cancer does not care if you are a man or a woman, or your financial status in life, the danger is very real for everyone.

Research by the University of North Carolina found that boosting your levels of antioxidants, such as those found in green tea and soybeans could reduce your risks. Eating a healthy diet won't just keep your weight in check it'll keep your cancer risks in check too, all men produce estrogen which is perfectly normal, but estrogens levels can significantly increase with weight gain.

By eating right with a regular weight loss program, you can decrease your chances of getting cancer; this applies to men as well as women. So guys, the next time you feel the need for a snack watching the big game, put down the hot dog and pick up a carrot.
