Estrogen And Breast Cancer - What's The Link? EP265

ITS HERTIME with Cody and Jess

If you had to name one of your biggest health fears, would breast cancer be top of your list? Public health campaigns have put this important health issue on our radar and obviously that’s a good thing. Because according to the American Cancer Society, breast cancer is diagnosed in 1 in 7 women. If you gather a small group of your girlfriends, someone is going to get it. It is real.

Yet, when we talk about this concerning disease, the focus is often on detection (think mammograms) and treatment (think mastectomies). And, in my opinion, far too little is said about prevention.

What about you? Are you in the know? How clued up are with knowing about the best lifestyle habits to reduce your breast cancer risk?
In this episode, Cody shares what science is saying, what she has experienced through working with dozens of women with breast cancer diagnosis, as well as from personal experience through breast cancer scares and from supporting her sister who has been living with a stage 4 breast cancer diagnosis for over 20 years.
To help prevent breast cancer, it’s important to recognize the links between elevated hormones and ill health. This is particularly true for estrogen.
