stress linked to breast cancer

Subjects such as breast cancer are in the public interest, as these are relevant to the entire population (in this case women, although male), as occur in people of all kinds, of all nationalities and all social strata.

This time what matters to us are the causes of the disease, which have been investigated by a group of Israeli scientists from Ben-Gurion University of the Negev in Beer Sheva, leading to an interesting conclusion that links breast cancer to stress.

Analyzing the cases of 255 women between 25 and 45 years diagnosed with breast cancer and 367 women of the same age range who were diagnosed no cancer of any kind, the scientists concluded that determinants of stress have a crucial relevance in developing the disease.

According to this study women who had crossed over a stressful situation before twenty years, such as the loss of a loved one, job loss, divorce, etc., Were 60% more likely to develop cancer breast cancer than women who had not experienced such situations before twenty years.

However this does not mean that breast cancer can avoid taking a life without stress. This is just a brick wall, and follow medical advice, healthy eating and physical fitness are all pillars that help to prevent this dangerous disease.
