breast cancer is getting very common .every women must know how to do breast examination. when to visit doctors and knows the modifiable risk factor for this highly prevalent disease.
4. Clinical Presentation of breast cancer
•Non-painful lumps or masses
•Lumps or swelling under the arms
•Noticeable flattening or indentation of the
breast
•Change in the nipple
•Unusual discharge from the nipple
•Changes in the feel, size, or shape of the
breast tissue
7. Who is at risk
Modifiable risk factors
Non Modifiable risk factors
8. Who is at risk Pakistani research
A total of 2,246 women were studied,
majority of the breast cancer patients (69.59%) were
in age ranges of 40s and 50s.
BMI greater than 25kg/m2
marital status of unmarried
lack of breast feeding, smoking
lack of physical activity and post-menopausal status were
found to have significant positive associations with breast
cancer.
It was also observed that increased parity reduced the
disease risk
13. v
What is healthy diet and what
do you choose
High
sugar
High
fats
High
sodiu
Main hazard is their
ingredients
14. v Some research suggests that there may be a link
between eating red meat and breast cancer. Most of the
concern is about processed meats (because of high fat,
salt, and nitrate levels) and beef given extra hormones
and antibiotics.
Dietary iron and breast cancer
Some postmenopausal women appear to have high
circulating iron concentrations because of high intake of
meat, fortification of foods with iron, and the wide use of
iron-containing dietary supplements
15. Vit D and breast cancer
A high concentration of plasma 25(OH)D is associated with a
significantly reduced risk of premenopausal breast cancer [72].
Reduction in risk of breast cancer depends on the amount of vitamin
D. A serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) level of 50 ng/ml was
associated with 50% lower incidence of breast cancer, compared to a
baseline of < 10 ng/ml [73]. Every 1 ng/ml increment of plasma
25(OH)D level can decrease breast cancer risk by 16%
16. EXERCISE BENEFIT CANCER
Exercise helps to prevent obesity, a major
risk factor for several types of cancer
Exercise enhances immune function
Exercise activates antioxidant enzymes that
protect cells from free radical damage
