1 in 8 US Women are at Risk…
When we come across the term Cancer, we think about it as the most dangerous and difficult to cure disease. While we talk about breast cancer, it is a kind of cancer developed in the breast cells. About 1 in 8 U.S. women (just under 12%) will develop invasive breast cancer over the course of her lifetime. According to the National Cancer Institute, 232,340 female breast cancers and 2,240 male breast cancers are reported in the USA each year as well as about 39,620 deaths are caused by the disease.
The bitter fact is that breast cancer has no symptoms.
A latest study conducted in London found that there are four deadly subtypes of Cancer :
- Luminal A
- Luminal B
- HER2 and
- Basal-like
These tumors often are aggressive and do not respond to therapies that target hormone receptors or standard chemotherapies.
What Causes Cancer?
- Lumps is the common sign of breast cancer.
- Dense breast tissue.
- Alcohol consumption.
- Getting Older.
- Genetics.
- Radiation to Chest or Face before the age of 30.
- Certain Breast Changes.
- Vitamin D deficiency.
- Exposure to Chemicals.
Medication of diseases like diabetes and high blood pressure leads to Breast Cancer. Also cancer spreads via cells, lymph nodes and blood, increasing their risk. Breast Cancer Surgery involves the physical removal of the tumor, typically along with some of the surrounding tissue. Other treatment for Breast Cancer include Radiation Therapy to destroy cancer cells. Chemotherapy that includes a combination of several drugs which is more effective than one drug. Hormone Therapy is also done to block the effects of estrogens on the growth of breast cancer cells.
One of the preventive measures of breast cancer is visiting your doctor regularly, annual mammogram and physical exam by a doctor, eating organic, avoiding junk food, morning walk, fitness exercises. Natural cure for breast cancer include vitamin D, Green Tea, Fish oil Supplements, Cannabis oil and Retinoic acids. There are other powerful herbs and nutrients that have been clinically proven to prevent and treat breast cancer. These include calcium, cesium chloride, selenium, iodine, astragalus and red clover.
Breast cancer is not just a disease that strikes women. It strikes at the very heart of who humans are as women: how others perceive us, how we perceive ourselves, how we live, work and raise our families – or whether we do these things at all. There can be life after breast cancer. The prerequisite is early detection.
