Breast Cancer and Genetics: Healthy Future Despite Family History | Dr. Kristi Funk

Breast cancer is more than just genetics. The greatest risk appears to come from choices that you have the power to control.
Dr. Kristi Funk puts that power back in your hands as she details the simple everyday choices that women can make to reduce their cancer risk to just a fraction of the average person.
She also unleashes the power of new research that can help guide you to make the healthiest decisions possible.
Just 13% of women with breast cancer also have a close relative diagnosed with the disease. The time to put the power in your hands is now.
Dr. Funk joins “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll for part two of a three-part Let’s Beat Breast Cancer series on The Exam Room Podcast.

[@sectionalsofa]

@@bethanylyles5241 Dr. Kristie Funk really knows her stuff. She looks at the risk/benefit ratio and all things considered, she recommends mammograms. Just a an aside: I grew wary of getting regular mammograms in my mid 40s, but decided to give it another chance at 47. A small tumor was found. Had I waited till I was 50 as I had planned, it would have grown. Who knows what would have happened.

An upbeat, energetic doctor who sets a great example of walking the walk!

Thanks Dr Funk, very educative podcast. The whole world needs to hear you talking about breast cancer. You have a good way of holding people's attention. Keep it up.

My triple negative invasive ductile carcinoma has come back, 3 years after chemo. I've been plant-based for almost 3 years now.

[@monicaa78]

I'm sorry to say this because I love all of these podcasts, but I HATE THIS ONE. I am already an ovarian cancer survivor and to hear the criteria behind needing to get genetic testing is scary. I met 2 of them. 😲 Thank you very much for this Podcast. I will be getting genetic testing done as soin as possible as I obviously need to.

Good is better than bad but it OK with your partner? I feel my partner should be as disciplined as I am. He still eats everything. I do not want him to for many reasons.

Hard to follow, I know she's trying to be all enthusiastic, and fun but hard to track maybe too much coffee or whatever, exhausting to listen too.

Breast Cancer rates have skyrocketed since 2021.

[@kathleenking47]

What?!

[@presterjohn1697]

@@kathleenking47 Yes cancer rates across the board jumped steeply in 2021. People can decide for themselves what's driving those numbers.

Very informative. The vegan seems like the better way to go.
