Diet and Nutrition: Breast Cancer Risk Factor

Just 10% of breast cancer risk can be solely explained by genetics. That means that 90% of risk is related to factors that we can both directly, and indirectly, impact for positive health outcomes.

Eating more whole foods and less processed foods can reduce the risk of breast cancer and other chronic diseases. Together, we can ensure everyone has equitable access to culturally appropriate, nutritious, and affordable food at every stage of their life.
