1, health care prescription for preventing breast cancer
1. Refuse or control alcohol intake: For women, the harm of drinking is far greater than that of men. Women who drink alcohol have a higher risk of breast cancer than those who seldom drink alcohol. People who drink 1 cup or more every day have a higher risk of breast cancer than those who rarely drink, which is most significant among premenopausal women. At present, alcohol can stimulate the secretion of prolactin in the anterior pituitary gland, which is related to the occurrence of breast cancer. Therefore, women, especially those before and after menopause, should give up drinking and drink less.
2, drink less stimulating drinks such as coffee: coffee, cocoa, chocolate, these foods contain a lot of xanthine, xanthine can promote benign hyperplasia of breast, and benign hyperplasia of breast is related to breast cancer. If women, especially premenopausal women, eat too much of this kind of food, with the intake of xanthine, the risk of breast cancer will greatly increase. Therefore, women, especially those over middle age, should drink less coffee and eat less chocolate.
3, do not smoke, but also refuse second-hand smoke: women who smoke or often contact second-hand smoke have a 40% chance of developing breast cancer. Quitting smoking can quickly increase your chances of getting cancer.
4. Eat high-quality nutritional supplements: In order to prevent diseases such as breast cancer, you also need to take all vitamin and mineral supplements that the human body needs. Especially vitamins A, D and E, cruciferous vegetables and fish oil containing omega-3 fatty acids can help you reduce breast cancer.
5. Reduce fat intake and eat healthy fat: A high-fat diet, especially trans fatty acids, will increase the probability of breast cancer to some extent. However, both monounsaturated fatty acids and fish oil can reduce the risk of breast cancer. Reduce the overall intake of fat to 25%-30% calories, abandon foods containing trans fatty acids, reduce the intake of saturated fat, and appropriately increase the intake of olive oil and fish oil containing omega-3 fatty acids.
6, the breast is the most taboo to be strongly squeezed: this should pay special attention. There are two disadvantages when the breast is squeezed by external force: 1, and the soft tissue inside the breast is easy to bruise or cause internal hyperplasia. 2. After being squeezed by external force, it is easier to change the external shape, so that the swollen breasts collapse and sag. Pay attention to two points to avoid forcibly squeezing breasts: (1) and correct sleeping position. Women had better sleep on their backs. Try not to lie on your side in one direction for a long time, which will not only squeeze the breasts, but also cause uneven development of both breasts. (2) When the husband and wife share the same room, they should try to avoid the man squeezing the breast hard. Otherwise it will become an internal disease.
7. Wear the right bra or not: Choosing the right bra is a necessary measure to protect the breast, and it must not be taken lightly. To choose a bra of moderate size, you should do the following three things: (1). Wearing a bra can't be oppressive, that is, the bra can't be too small. It is appropriate to choose a model that can cover all the outer edges of the breast. (2) The bra shoulder strap should not be too loose or too tight. (3) Its material should be a somewhat elastic belt.
It is very important to prevent women's health. You can refer to the method recommended by Bian Xiao. Let's take a look at what can effectively prevent breast cancer and Bian Xiao.
2. Foods that can prevent breast cancer
Classic preventive food (1): soybean+Chinese cabbage. Phytoestrogen contained in soybean can effectively inhibit the production of estrogen in human body, and high estrogen is one of the main causes of breast cancer. Experiments show that the proportion of breast cancer in a group of mice who often eat soybean flour is 70% lower than that in mice who don't eat soybean flour. In addition, Chinese cabbage contains a compound called indole -3- methanol, which can increase the amount of an important enzyme in the body, help decompose excessive estrogen and prevent breast cancer.
Classic preventive food (2): flax. Contains phytoestrogens, which can effectively reduce the negative effects of estrogen in the body. Flaxseed is a good choice, or choose two tablespoons flaxseed oil to mix well.
Classic preventive food (3): black raspberry. Contains polyphenols and natural substances, which can inhibit the growth of cancer cells.
Classic preventive food (4): broccoli and carrots. It helps to form inorganic salts and inhibit the growth of tumors.
Classic preventive foods (5): purple grapes and grape juice. Rich in flavonoids, it can prevent cancer cells from growing. 1/4 cups of raisins can also play the same role, which is a fast food rich in flavonoids.
Classic preventive food (6): radish and carrot. Radish contains a variety of enzymes, which can eliminate the carcinogenic effect of nitrosamines; Its lignin can stimulate immunity. Carrots can be converted into vitamin A after ingesting into human body, which can maintain the normal structure and function of human epithelial tissue and make carcinogens difficult to infringe.
Summary: After reading the above, do you know how to prevent breast cancer? I hope the above content can help you. I hope every woman has a healthy body.
3. Conventional symptoms of breast cancer
1. Breast lump
80% of breast cancer patients are diagnosed as breast masses for the first time. Patients often inadvertently find breast lumps, mostly single, hard, irregular edges and unsmooth surfaces. Breast cancer is mostly painless mass, and only a few of them are accompanied by dull pain or tingling to varying degrees.
2. nipple discharge
During non-pregnancy period, blood, serous fluid, milk and pus flow out from the nipple, or milk still flows out after stopping breastfeeding for more than half a year, which is called nipple discharge. There are many reasons for nipple discharge. Common diseases include intraductal papilloma, mammary hyperplasia, mammary duct dilatation and breast cancer. Unilateral single-hole bloody secretion should be further examined, especially if accompanied by breast mass.
3. Skin changes
There are many signs of skin changes caused by breast cancer. The most common thing is that the tumor invades the Cooper ligament connecting the breast skin and the deep fascia of the chest, making it short and inelastic, pulling the skin at the corresponding position, resulting in "dimple sign", that is, a small depression appears in the breast skin, like a small dimple. If cancer cells block lymphatic vessels, there will be "orange peel-like changes", that is, many small spots appear on the breast skin, just like orange peel. In the late stage of breast cancer, cancer cells infiltrate the skin along lymphatic vessels, glandular ducts or fibrous tissues and grow, forming scattered hard nodules in the skin around the main cancer focus, which are called "skin satellite nodules".
4. Abnormal nipple and areola
The tumor is located in or near the nipple, which can cause nipple invagination. When the tumor is far away from the nipple and the large duct in the breast is invaded and shortened, it can also cause the nipple to retract or bulge. Eczematous carcinoma of the nipple, namely paget's disease of the breast, is characterized by itching, erosion, ulcer, scabbing, desquamation and burning pain of the nipple skin, leading to nipple invagination.
5. Axillary lymphadenopathy
More than 1/3 of breast cancer patients admitted to large hospitals have axillary lymph node metastasis. At the initial stage, the axillary lymph nodes on the same side may be enlarged, and the enlarged lymph nodes are hard, scattered and pushable. With the development of the disease, lymph nodes gradually fuse and attach to the skin and surrounding tissues. Metastatic lymph nodes can be felt in advanced clavicle and contralateral armpit.
