Q. Why are younger African American Women more prone to breast cancer? Though women in their forties are more prone to breast cancer, why are younger African American Women more prone to breast cancer? Is life style of black women paving way for breast cancer?

A. I cant stress enough the importance of the right diet,for young black men and women,high blood pressure,breast cancer ,diabetes mullitus..all go back to what we put in our bodys,...25yrs as a therapist i have seen more overweight black men and women,who had no clue why they have the disease that they had,as adults it is our job to teach the new generation,right and wrong,and that also starts in the kitchen.....peace...mrfoot56
