Re: White women more prone to breast cancer because of lifestyle

I appreciate this post as it pertains to research. Having access to medical journals one cannot dispute the link to breast cancer and health care related behaviors. I once believed that breast cancer was strictly genetic when indeed that is not the case. this information is meant for us to be better informed and not to shame us. I for one want all the information I can get my hands on.
