“Why me?” is a question that is frequently asked by breast cancer patients. While the easiest answer is bad luck; it is well known that the disease is multifactorial, with all these factors being interrelated. Although some of these factors are well-established, a vast majority of them remain unexplored. This ignited a desire to delve into the existing published literature and utilise personal clinical experience to identify all possible risk factors in breast cancer; among which easily manageable problems such as vitamin D, B12 deficiency, excessive weight gain and sedentary practices, consumption of hormones-enriched milk products and processed foods as well as a weak immune system have proven to cause a massive hormonal imbalance which has a huge impact on breast cancer development.
This book highlights the correlation of such factors and the risk of acquiring breast cancer and focuses on utilising this knowledge to not only prevent new breast cancers in the general population but also prevent recurrences among existing breast cancer patients.
