Cancer

Most people have lost a loved one to some form of cancer, and the threat of cancer continues to concern many Americans as media coverage highlights the wide array of risks and increasing incidences of some cancers. For example, women in United States have a breast cancer rate of approximately 12% and the rate of pre-menopausal breast cancer in women under 50 has increased by 30% in the last 30 years. Even more frightening: One out of eight American women will develop breast cancer in their lifetime. Those statistics are alarming, but the good news is there are ways to prevent and minimize your risk of cancer.

How Can I prevent cancer?

Research at leading medical institutions has proven that exercise and nutrition can not only prevent breast cancer and other types of cancer, but may be able to shrink existing cancer. For that reason, Dr. Brock recommends exercise and dietary modification to all patients as one of the first steps in cancer prevention. In fact, small dietary and exercise improvements can also help lower your cholesterol, reduce your risk of heart disease and diabetes, and make you healthier all around.

In addition to making exercise and dietary improvements, hormone optimization can also help lower your risk of cancer. Progesterone, for example, is one hormone in women that protects against breast cancer. Because it is common for women going through menopause to have declining hormone levels, it's important to get a full hormone evaluation to find out if you have any imbalances.

What if I have a hormonal imbalance?

The Regenerative Medicine Center specializes in bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), an all natural hormone replacement therapy that can help you restore your body with adequate levels of the hormones it needs in order to greatly reduce your risk of cancer and other diseases. To find out if you have any hormonal imbalances or learn more about BHRT, schedule an appointment with us today.
