Today kicks of breast cancer awareness month and what better time to wear your pink ribbons as we promote the importance of prevention and education on breast cancer.
Did you know….
-1 in every 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer
-Obesity and smoking are amongst the top leading causes of breast cancer
-Daily exercise can reduce your breast cancer risk by as much as 16%
Although statistics are interesting to hear, it’s not until we implement these healthy lifestyle means that we truly take the means to be well and stay well.
Join us this month as we promote the importance of nutrition, fitness and wellness in preventing and overcoming breast cancer.
