TNM staging of breast cancer

Although breast cancer is relatively common in our daily lives, the treatment of diseases such as breast cancer is still very difficult. Especially when breast cancer develops to the late stage, it is more difficult to treat. Therefore, we must treat it as soon as possible. It is best to detect the disease in the early stage and take active treatment. We all know that the later the breast cancer progresses, the greater the damage it causes to the patient, and it may also be life-threatening.

Three types of people are more likely to get breast cancer:

The first category is people with a family history of breast cancer. The occurrence of breast cancer is closely related to family history. If your relatives, mother, sisters, etc. have had breast cancer before, then your chances of developing breast cancer may be several times higher than that of the average person.

The second category is long-term use of hormones, especially emergency contraception and androgens. Some health products contain androgens. In order to stay young and improve their health, female friends choose to take health products or beauty serums. However, you must know that not all health products are safe. Long-term use of hormone-containing drugs may cause breast cancer.

The third category is people who suffer from excessive psychological pressure and chronically poor sleep. Today's women are under too much pressure at work, working overtime for a long time and often staying up late without getting enough sleep. However, staying up late frequently will affect the endocrine system and cause hormone disorders, especially estrogen. Once the estrogen level is out of balance, it will affect all aspects of the female body and is likely to cause breast cancer. Therefore, female friends are reminded that for the sake of your health, don’t stay up late often. Only by getting up early and going to bed early can you work efficiently.

Eating four types of fruits and vegetables can prevent breast cancer:

1. Kelp Shreds

Kelp silk belongs to the sea products, rich in minerals and various nutrients, which can play a very positive role in the prevention of breast cancer. It is worth mentioning that it can also prevent women from skin aging problems, which has a very special meaning for women. Although kelp silk can prevent breast cancer in women, it cannot be consumed as a regular meal every day, otherwise it is easy to cause goiter and other diseases.

2. Kiwi

Kiwi is called the king of fruits because the vitamin C it contains is irreplaceable by many fresh fruits. Because kiwi fruit is rich in vitamins, it can prevent various diseases of the body and is also a good preventive effect for breast diseases. In addition, kiwi fruit contains certain special elements that can block the production of nitrite in the body. Nitrite is an important component of cancer production, so it can play a very positive role in the prevention of cancer. It not only has excellent preventive effects on breast cancer, but also has very good preventive effects on other cancers in the human body.

3. Fungi

Fungi are edible foods and contain many nutrients that are lacking in other vegetables and fruits. Fungi have a good reputation as the king of hormone regulators in the body. Therefore, eating mushrooms regularly can enhance the body's immune ability. After the immune ability is enhanced, it can have a strong preventive effect on many diseases of the human body. It is said that there is a very famous scientific study abroad that shows that if women can eat mushrooms more than three times a week, they can effectively prevent diseases such as breast cancer and cervical cancer.

4. Carrots

Most people know that carrots are rich in carotene and are a good nutritional supplement for children. But many people don't know that in addition to having a positive effect on the development of children, carrots are also very beneficial for women. Carrots are rich in carotene. After being digested and absorbed by the body, they transform into carrot A. Carrot A can prevent skin damage, resist the invasion of tumor cells, and thus effectively prevent breast cancer.
