Breast cancer is the most common life-threatening cancer to affect women worldwide. Around 1.5 million new cases per year occur in the world; over 200,000 yearly cases are in the US, with 40,000 deaths.It is interesting that the highest rate is in affluent Western nations, such as England, the US, and Western Europe. Could they have the same lifestyle and eat similar food? I think I know what Dr. Colin Campbell (the author of "The China Study") would say, "Lifestyle is huge in chronic disease causation."The death rate is declining slightly, but the incidence has not declined to any significant degree. Detection and treatment have improved, but preventative treatment and recommendations have been minimal. Most women do not know that 50% to 70% of breast cancer can be avoided by having a normal weight, avoiding cigarettes and alcohol, and exercising regularly.
