Weight , alcohol, and exercise on breast cancer recurrence risk @Neil_Iyengar
🏃♀️Growing evidence on the benefit of exercise
🍷Any amount of alcohol can increase risk
🥦Plant based, high fiber, avoid 🥩
@Neil_Iyengar - lifestyle modification as a tool for modifying risk of #bcsm recurrence
🔸Obesity linked with 13 cancers
🔹Weight gain after #bcsm diagnosis associated with increase mortality (partially above 10%)
🔺exercise quite important in risk reduction (40%)
