The numbers are going down but I do think for most women a breast cancer reduction diet is much more important than genetics. Of course breast cancer researchers still die also (RIP Dr. Beth Levine) so that isn’t the entire answer.
I’ve lost count of the women I know with breast cancer.
Something’s going on. Maybe the numbers were always this bad. I don’t know. None of my aunts in their 80s and 90s got it. Maybe half of everyone woman in the family under 65 has it. .. crazy enough I just found out today my sister-in-law has stage 1 breast cancer
Having had breast cancer, and looking back on my life then, the one thing that keeps rising to the top of the list is incredible stress. It’s not in my family history. Diet is good. Seems that the stress just couldn’t be contained and it exploded in the form of cancer. (Just MHO.)
