Breast Cancer Awareness. By the Teencology

1. FOOD FOR THOUGHT
Breast Cancer Awareness

2. • If you're concerned about BREAST
CANCER, you may be wondering if
there are steps you can take
toward breast cancer prevention.
Some risk factors, such as family
history, can't be changed.
However, there are lifestyle
changes you can make to lower
your risk.

4. HEALTHY DIET
• A healthy DIET isn't a magic bullet
against cancer, but new research
suggests it may help. Two studies
just released by the University of
California, San Diego, and the
Genesis Prevention Center at
University Hospital in South
Manchester, England, show that a
meal plan rich in fruits and veggies
and low in starchy carbohydrates
may help prevent BREAST CANCER
and BREAST CANCER recurrence.

5. • Only 1 out of 10 breast cancers has a known
inherited genetic link.
• Nine out of 10 breast cancer cases can be triggered
and/or promoted by unhealthy lifestyle factors and
environmental exposures including:
– Obesity
– Lack of exercise
– Smoking
– Alcohol consumption
– Unhealthy chemicals consumed through eating,
drinking (many plastic containers used in
packaged food and drinks can be harmful)

6. • Scientists found a strong link
between the intake of high fat
foods during puberty and the
speed at which cancerous cells
develop.

7. • Teenage girls who gorge on junk food
may be at a higher risk of BREAST
CANCER, a study claims.
• The increased fat makes them more
likely to develop an aggressive form
of the disease earlier.
• Scientists, funded by the national
cancer institute, found a strong link
between the intake of high fat foods
during puberty and the speed at which
cancerous cells develop.
• Lead researcher Sandra Haslam, of
Michigan university, said: “our findings
show the culprit is the fat itself rather
than weight gain.”

8. • PREVENTION IS
BETTER THAN
CURE …….

9. VEGGIES :
Not all superheroes wear
capes. :3

11. • By taking a few steps we can
prevent Breast Cancer. A
healthy diet not only lowers
breast cancer risks but also
prevents various other
diseases from taking over
you.
• So lets drop the packets of
chips and hold on to our
fruits and vegetables !
