Abstract

Breast cancer (BC) is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and second most common cause of cancer death in US women. Family history and genetics are well-known BC risk factors, but they only account for 15–20% of BC cases. Therefore, in addition to family history, healthcare providers must consider a woman’s modifiable and nonmodifiable personal risk factors that are associated with an increase in BC risk. The World Cancer Research Fund/American Institute for Cancer Research estimate that 30% of BC cases in the US are preventable. Lifestyle education is imperative given the magnitude of BC occurrence. Evidence supports prevention as an effective, long-term strategy for reducing risk. Healthcare providers are key stakeholders in empowering patients to adopt a healthy lifestyle for primary BC prevention. In this paper, we review the available evidence on modifiable BC risk including weight management, nutrition, physical activity, alcohol and tobacco use and provide strategies to counsel patients on lifestyle modifications.

主要生活方式因素对乳腺癌风险的影响:体重、营养、体育活动、酒精和烟草的影响

乳腺癌(BC)是最常见的癌症，也是美国女性癌症死亡的第二大常见原因。家族史和遗传是众所周知的BC危险因素，但它们只占BC病例的15-20%。因此，除了家族史外，医疗保健提供者必须考虑与BC风险增加相关的女性可改变和不可改变的个人风险因素。世界癌症研究基金会/美国癌症研究所估计，美国30%的BC病例是可以预防的。考虑到BC的发生率，生活方式教育是必要的。证据支持预防是降低风险的有效长期战略。医疗保健提供者是授权患者采用健康生活方式以预防原发性BC的关键利益相关者。在本文中，我们回顾了可改变BC风险的现有证据，包括体重管理，营养，身体活动，酒精和烟草使用，并提供策略，建议患者改变生活方式。
