5 Ways to Promote Breast Health

Today, simple lifestyle choices can have an extreme impact on our health. What we eat, our lifestyle behavior, and how active we are greatly affects the way our body performs. By taking simple steps to support our body’s unique capacity to balance itself, we can experience more vibrant health naturally. Good nutrition, regular exercise, and healthy habits are positive ways to promote long-lasting breast health. Try to incorporate these five simple strategies into your life to support and maintain breast health and improve your overall vitality as well..

1. Stop smoking and limit your alcohol intake. Abnormal breast cell growth is linked to a steady consumption of alcohol, and may fuel hormone-sensitive breast conditions. If you smoke, try to quit as soon as possible. Habitual smoking increases your risk for developing a number of dangerous health conditions. A new study shows that women who smoked for at least 35 years had a 60 percent higher risk of serious breast health problems and more than four times the risk of abnormal colon cells. Women who smoked for more than 15 years were 34 percent more likely to develop abnormal breast cell conditions..

2. Exercise often, or as many times a week as you can. Even mild to moderate exercise, such as walking for thirty minutes, can benefit your health in a myriad of ways. Exercise may positively affect estrogen metabolism, which in turn may inhibit abnormal breast cells from establishing themselves in the body..

3. Maintain a healthy weight. Fat cells make more estrogen, and may influence or perpetuate hormone sensitive breast cells. A healthy weight, depending on your height and lifestyle, also benefits your cardiovascular, metabolic and overall health..

4. Eat a diet high in organic vegetables, especially cruciferous vegetables and dark leafy greens. Broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, and kale all provide crucial vitamins and antioxidants as well as powerful compounds that support cellular health. DIM, a natural compound found in broccoli, has been shown to assist in the proper metabolism of estrogen..

5. Perform monthly self breast exams and see your doctor for routine exams and screening if necessary. Early detection of any breast problems increase your chance of beating abnormal and threatening breast conditions..
