This is actually very good news, because it means that more than 90% of breast cancers are caused by something we do, and that means there's a great hope you can reduce the risk.

Recent research indicates promising strategies of prevention.

Firstly, you need to get some sun. Try getting out in the sunshine between 10 to 15 minutes, twice a week, where you can expose your skin to allow the sunlight to penetrate deep into your skin and start to create vitamin D.

Secondly, add foods to your diet that are high in vitamin D, these include mushrooms, eggs, mackerel, salmon and sardines, and super foods such as bee pollen, as a note, in case your thinking about just popping some vitamin D supplements instead, is the research is yet to show that supplements are as effective as the vitamin D from foods and sunlight.

And a few more things you can do that could help cut the risks of breast cancer as well as improve your overall health:

Exercise. There's no need to break out into a sweat here, a simple 30 minute walk each day is good enough. In fact it's been shown to very beneficial for your health and wellbeing, including: reducing blood pressure, reducing levels of depression and anxiety, retarding the progression of dementia and diabetes, cutting the risk of death, and also an effective was of losing weight.

Time to watch your waistline. If you're feeling that belly bulge, consider slimming down and losing a few pounds. Try adding a few super foods to your diet, like barely grass, wheatgrass and spirulina. These will strengthen your digestion and aid the elimination of toxins from the body.
