I think it’s about reducing the risk not eliminating it sadly.Also if one’s health is good we may have a better chance of fighting this disease mentally , emotionally and physically.
As a post menopausal person I wonder if part of this diet/exercise/lifestyle thing is to reduce the fat in my breasts which is converted to oestrogen which has caused my Er+ disease. ie to reduce BMI by making my body leaner.
One question I am interested in is how many women with breast cancer were treated pre bc with hormone drugs- I was prescribed high dose HRT , many women undoubtedly have used the oral contraceptive pill -to my non medical mind I wonder if there is a link to some types of breast cancer.Not that it changes things for me but it may for my daughter’s generation.
