Reducing the risk of breast cancer with just four habits is the goal of the “Let’s Beat Breast Cancer” campaign, created by the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM), who recently held an activation in the main square of the city of Puebla, inviting citizens to sign up for the challenge of beating this type of cancer by including four habits in their lifestyle.
The “Let’s beat breast cancer” campaign consists not only of informing but also of raising awareness among the general population to include four habits that positively impact the reduction of the risk of suffering from this cancer: choosing foods of plant origin (vegetables, fruits, whole grains and beans), exercising, limiting alcohol consumption and maintaining a healthy weight.
For Ginny Martinez, nutrition educator, certified instructor of the “Eat to Live” program of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine and ovarian cancer survivor, she said that “beating cancer is possible, nutrition education is the key. We can all improve our diet and change our habits. Knowledge saves lives.”
Numerous studies have shown that a plant-based diet offers greater protection against cancer than any other dietary plan.
