Eating fruit and walking can halve chance of dying from breast cancer - Independent
Extract:
"Women with breast cancer can halve their risk of dying from the disease if they eat fruit and take up walking, research released yesterday has shown.
Even those who are overweight or obese gain the same benefit from the strategy - provided they follow both parts of it. Eating fruit and vegetables without walking or walking without eating fruit has no effect, the researchers said.
The study of 1,500 women diagnosed with early stage breast cancer between 1991 and 2000 is the first to examine the combination of exercise and diet and its effect on survival. Previous studies have looked at one or the other and come up with mixed results."
Avoiding salt and salty food is most important for reducing the risk of most cancers, including breast cancer, especially for women who are overweight or obese. I am amazed, yet again, that researchers into cancer have failed to mention this as a priority...)o: - See http://www.wildeaboutsteroids.co.uk/conditions.html
