Greetings DIYers your DIY Activist here!!
Today we are going a little bit of our normal routine. As we are know today we are repping pink for breast cancer. So by that being said I have some educating facts for your women out there and you men too. For all those mothers who breast feed there youths for more that 6 months I rise my black fist to you guys, womb-man power ( woman). And for those who just could stand the pain that comes with it I over stand, and to those who just didn't care to do it , because there is an alternative.(formula) am disappointed in you. Research has proven that breast feeding decreases your chance and you babies chance of breast cancer. And thanks to the this web site Cancer Research UK for sharing what they have discovered, so here's an article that the posted. Please read and visit the site and educate your self and your loved ones. And don't forget to leave your comments and lets reason, stay positive, keep reading, and keep following.

How is breastfeeding related to breast cancer?
Breastfeeding can protect you against developing breast
cancer. We don't know exactly how breastfeeding is protective but we
know that it definitely is.
A large Cancer Research UK study in 2002 compared breastfeeding
history in women who had breast cancer with women who hadn't. It was a
very large study, involving the histories of 50,000 women with breast
cancer and nearly 100,000 women without.
The longer the women had breastfed during their lifetime, the less
likely they were to get breast cancer. According to the researchers,
this was a very striking finding. They made sure that the women's age,
menopausal status, ethnic origin, number of births and their age at the
birth of their first child were all taken into account. Breast feeding
still lowered breast cancer risk by 4.3% for every year of feeding.
There is also a 7% reduction in risk of breast cancer for each child
born.
A 4% lowering of risk doesn't sound much. But, as breast cancer is
quite a common disease in developed countries, breastfeeding every child
for an extra 6 months would mean about 1,000 fewer cases of breast
cancer in Britain each year.
This research is a major step in explaining the difference in breast
cancer rates between the Western world and developing countries. In
developing countries, women tend to have more children and to feed each
of them for much longer. Interestingly, in Japan 90% of women who have
children breastfeed. Japan is often talked about in relation to the
incidence of breast cancer because, although it is obviously a developed
country, breast cancer rates are much lower than they are in Western
countries. Usually, people talk about diet as the explanation for this.
But it may well be cultural differences in feeding babies that explains
it.
These findings are important for helping us to prevent future cases
of breast cancer. But the research may also help us in developing
treatments. Any new knowledge about how breast cancer is triggered can
help scientists to develop treatments to tackle it.
Researchers are now looking into whether breastfeeding can help to
protect women who carry one of the breast cancer faulty genes – BRCA1 and BRCA2.
One Swedish study, published in 2004, found that breastfeeding may
reduce breast cancer risk for BRCA1 carriers who breast feed for more
than a year in total. There was no difference for BRCA2 carriers. Since
then, other studies have given conflicting results and so it isn't
possible to draw definite conclusions about whether breastfeeding can
change breast cancer risk in BRCA carriers. Research is continuing to
try to find out whether breastfeeding reduces breast cancer risk in
women with these gene changes.
