It is now known that physical activity reduces the risk of breast cancer but the exact relationship between “dose” and timing of exercise - particularly in relation to menopause – is less well defined. A new study from the Department of Epidemiology at the University of North Carolina was recently published on-line in the journal Cancer.
The study examined
these relationships in more than 1500 women with breast cancer and 1200
controls who did not in the Long Island Breast Cancer Study Project
The results
indicated that exercise had no preventative effect when the onset of breast
cancer prior to menopause was examined.
However, lifetime exercise was strongly related to cancer-free survival
when breast cancer onset after menopause was examined. Child-bearing women who
had exercised between 10-19 hours per week prior to and after menopause experienced
a 30% reduction in the risk of breast cancer. Surprisingly, exercise intensity did not seem
to affect the relationship. The
data indicated that substantial postmenopausal weight gain may eliminate the
benefits of regular exercise.
These results are strong evidence that exercise and weight maintenance
are powerful factors in the prevention of breast cancer.

ReplyDeleteI'm considering getting breast implants, am I going to be prone to cancer? I've read somewhere that there is no scientific evidence that it does have effects but is there anything else I should know about? Or any risks?

It is said that breast implants actually decrease the risk of cancer. Actually the silicone does interfere with the mammogram results, but if they are put under the chest muscles it will not bother much. Or else before going for a mammogram test, tell the doc to take x-rays from different angles so that any lumps don’t get missed.
ReplyDeleteHello...
ReplyDeleteNatural breast reduction is not magic pills, but it is more than that will give you instant results.
However, there is a darker side to these breast enhancing surgeries. For instance, the silicone implants can possibly induce breast cancer into the body. Payudara
