With 1 in 29 women in South Africa being diagnosed with breast
cancer, it's no wonder that cancer is one of the most serious diseases women
face!
That's why we wanted to share some tips from CANSA - The Cancer
Association of South Africa - to help increase your odds for breast cancer
prevention:
·
A breast
self-examination (BSE) should be done at least once a month.
·
Get an annual mammogram
or do a clinical breast examination at any CANSA Care Centre.
·
Limit alcohol
consumption. Your risk goes up by 7% with each drink you have per day.
·
Follow a healthy diet
and exercise regularly.
