There are recent studies found in the International Journal of Cancer about ways we can reduce our risk of breast cancer. I didn't know this but I found out that breast cancer is 4-5 times lower in China than in more developed countries like...you guessed it the United States. The study was done on over 1,000 cancer patients in China and what they found is that women who had traditional diets, specifically mushrooms and green tea experienced better results. Women who ate 10 grams or more of fresh mushrooms a day were two thirds less likely to develop breast cancer. Also those same women who drank green tea everyday as well only had 11 to 18% the risk of breast cancer of non consumers. With that being said drink up!
