Today, thanks to cutting edge diagnostic and therapeutic tools in oncologic medicine, breast cancer is a highly preventable and treatable disease.
Recovery is followed to a return to normal life and daily activities, but precise behavioural rules have to be observed. Physical exercise appears the key to a succesful recovery and an indispensable strategy to adopt in order to keep the cancer away from representing.
Twenty minutes of moderate daily physical activity can play a huge role in preventing recurrences.
Recurrences represent one of the main issues in the managenent of this condition. Even after a seemingly full recovery, uncertainties always persist over the true eradication of the tumor.
In this case, it’s up to patient to help the tumor completely disappear or come back again.
The most common tumor among women can be prevented and fought by adopting a series of lifestyle modifications.
Too often, patients seem to forget the disease once they’ve been healed, and so wrong behaviours continue.
After a succesful pharmacologic chemioterapic surgery it’s imperative to stay away form tabacco, alcohol, and fat diets.
In fact, these elements represent the primary risk factors which set the pathological mechanisms underlying the tumor’s fist appearance.
Overweight is the main modifiable risk factor involved in the development of a primary tumor and should be avoided in all women, especially in those who passed through menopause.
Physical activity must be adopted along with a healthy diet abundant in fruit and vegetables and whole meal products.
Forgetting or ignoring these basic rules may lead to a second encounter with the disease, as the same risk factors are fully recreated.
