Factors Linked to Breast Cancer Prevention and Survival
There are many ways that we can be healthier women. From the food we eat, to getting enough clean and fresh water to drink everyday, makes a big difference in our long term health. Studies are now showing that foods, cosmetics and even household cleaners used can be a factor in whether we can avoid breast cancer. Chemicals used to preserve food or wash our clothes have been shown to contain hormone inhibitors or mimickers. Radiation as used in x-rays can also be a factor and the reason that more women are seeking mammogram alternatives that don't involve radiation. Breast thermography is one of those alternatives that provide accurate readings for early diagnosis of breast cancer. Early diagnosis is the key in the rise in survival rates and individual quality of life after treatments.
It is also of paramount importance that after breast cancer is discovered and during treatment that the patient drink plenty of water everyday. This helps to flush out the toxins in the body, both from the drugs used to treat the disease and for overall health. It should also be noted that eating a wide variety of fresh vegetables and hormone free meats contribute to faster healing as well.
