"BREAST CANCER AT MENOPAUSE.."

Fear of breast cancer is very real for many women. And Britain has one of the highest rates of breast cancer in the world. One in twelve women in the UK will develop breast cancer at some point in their lives and about 13,000 die from it here each year. Most of us know someone who has had breast cancer and endured what can be traumatic treatment. Many of us would admit it is our biggest dread. And as we get older the statistical chances of developing breast cancer increase. The best approach to protecting yourself is to be armed with information. No one knows for certain what causes breast cancer. Overweight, excess consumption of saturated fats, alcohol, emotional distress, family history, exposure to pesticides and radiation, the hormonal changes of the menopause have all been linked to it but no conclusive cause has emerged. However, research does indicate that some women seem to be more at risk than others. These women may have a mother or sister who has had breast cancer. Obese women, those who have never had children and women who gave birth for the first time after the age of thirty-five seem to have a higher risk, as do women who started their periods early and had a late menopause. Other factors include starting the Pill at a very young age and staying on it for more than four years and also not breast-feeding babies. A small minority of breast cancer cases, about 10 per cent, seem to be linked to inheriting a faulty gene called BRAC 1. And women do seem to run higher risks of breast cancer at and after the menopause. Yet these statistics are not universal. In some parts of the world, notably the Far East, breast cancer is not the major killer it is here in the West. Why? The UK seems to have a breast cancer death rate which is about six times higher than that of women in Japan, for instance, which gives us an important clue. Studies conducted in the USA have shown that when Japanese women move to the West, they develop more cases of breast cancer. The level then rises to one similar to that seen here. Many experts think the main factor is diet and this is borne out by the fact that as the traditional Japanese diet becomes more westernized, cases of breast cancer are increasing among Japanese women in Japan itself. There are a number of differences between the normal Japanese diet and ours. They eat a good quantity of unsaturated fats in oils and fish whereas the Western diet is high in saturated fat from meat and dairy foods. The traditional Japanese do not eat much dairy food at all. The other main difference is their large consumption of soya bean products including tofu, miso (soya bean paste), tamari (wheat-free soy sauce), tempeh and soya milk. What currently fascinates cancer researchers is the idea that it is something in this diet that has protected the Japanese from certain kinds of cancers by maintaining the balance between normal healthy cell development and the over-multiplication of cells that is the first detectable sign of cancer. Changing your diet may be the best way to protect yourself from breast cancer.
