I really feel bad for these victims that are infected with the disease and know that they really have to be strong people to overcome breast cancer and to get help. ||

I never knew that there were so many different options for breast cancer treatment these days. I was shocked. It is now easier to treat breast cancer and the victims that die from it are now cut in half. It is proven that more people making a living from treating breast cancer than dying from it.

 * **Limit alcohol.** A link exists between alcohol consumption and breast cancer, but the strength of the link remains to be determined.


 * **Maintain a healthy weight.** There's a clear link between obesity, weighing more than is appropriate for your age and height, and breast cancer, especially if you gain the weight later in life, particularly after menopause.


 * **Stay physically active.** Regular exercise can help you maintain a healthy weight may aid in breast cancer prevention.


 * **Consider limiting fat in your diet.** Results from the study of dietary fat and breast cancer risk suggest a decrease in risk of invasive breast cancer for women who eat a low-fat diet. But the effect is modest but you may even decrease your risk of other diseases, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease and stroke.


 * **Avoid long-****term hormone therapy.** Hormone Therapy that is used to relieve the symptoms of women’s’ menopause can induce more cancerous cells, or defective cells because of estrogen levels. Talk to your doctor on eliminating or using a short-term hormone therapy.


 * **Eliminate excessive use of Antibiotics.** Scientists have found a link between the long-term use of antibiotics and the risk of breast cancer. The longer the use of antibiotics, the more elevated the risk of breast cancer becomes.


 * **Birth control Pills?** Data from many previous studies suggest a slight increase in risk of premenopausal breast cancer. These studies showed that women who took the pill for four or more years before their first full-term pregnancy had a large increase in premenopausal breast cancer risk.


 * **Mammograms:** Regular [|screening tests] for breast cancer, such as an annual mammogram and a breast exam during your annual checkup, allow you and your doctor to ensure that your breasts are as healthy as they can be. Screening also increases the likelihood that your doctor will find breast cancer early, when it's most treatable. ||
