A woman's risk of breast cancer usually increases when a family history of breast cancer. However, this risk can be reduced with lifestyle changes and behavior, particularly in terms of alcohol consumption.
A
new study from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis
shows, teenage girls with a family history of breast cancer have a
higher risk of suffering from cancers such as increased consumption of
alcohol.
Researchers
claim, this is the first finding that the relationship between alcohol
consumption in adolescents with risk of breast cancer. The
reason for this mostly just research linking alcohol to breast cancer
risk in women age 50s, 40s, 60s and the risk of invasive breast cancer,
instead of the initial risk that can lead to invasive breast cancer.
Previous
research published in the Journal of the American Medical Association,
in which Colditz also act as researchers discovered, there has been a
moderate increase in breast cancer risk by consuming 3-6 glasses of
alcohol per week per adult women, regardless of whether he has a family
history of breast cancer .
In
his research Colidtz also find interesting facts, which are not found
to increase the risk of benign breast lesions in young women (with no
history of breast cancer) related to alcohol consumption. However, they seem obvious risk with increasing body mass index in childhood, waist circumference in adolescence and height.
The
findings indicate, there are differences in risk factors between women
with a history of breast cancer and those who did not.
Height associated with breast cancer risk. And some data showing explosive growth led to a higher risk of developing cancer later in life. Obviously, it's not something we can control. But
if we can understand what is going on hormones and processes in the
body, and the role of physical activity and diet, we may be able to
modify some of the accumulated risk of early breast cancer.
Almost
every person who drinks alcoholic beverages have experienced dizziness
or feeling miserable after drinking another in an amount exceeding the
dose. However, more than just drunk, habitsAlcohol is actually a very broad impact on health.
The
negative consequences of drinking alcohol will about the various organs
in the body, from the brain, mouth, gastrointestinal tract, to the
large intestine.
Excessive
alcohol drinking in general cause a reaction of confusion, slowing of
reaction time, blurred vision, until the loss of concentration and
muscle coordination, all of which can make a person's injury or fatal
accident.
In
addition, the use of alcohol in a short time and can lead to excessive
alcohol poisoning or alcohol intoxication which could endanger lives.
Intoxication
occurs when the amount of alcohol consumed in the limit of tolerance of
the person triggering the physical and mental disorders.
The heavy drinkers in the long term risk of chronic inflammation of the digestive tract, particularly the stomach. Chronic
inflammation that occurs in the gastrointestinal tract to form
intestinal ulcers and erosion to cause structural changes in the gut
until finally transformed into malignant cells (cancer).
Another
serious impact of alcoholism is a disease of bone loss (osteoporosis),
impotence, until fertility problems and breast cancer.
Even so, the effects of alcohol were not always bad. In
the last five years the benefits of moderate alcohol consumption has
become a major topic of many news though is still considered
controversial.
One that should be highlighted from the results of research on the benefits of alcohol consumption in moderation is. Some studies also mention the positive impact will only be found in people who are middle-aged.
In
fact, consumption of alcohol in moderation is also not recommended for
women who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, or for those aged
under 21 years.
