Breast feeding can reduce risk of an aggressive cancer subtype: study
Babies aren’t the only ones benefitting from breastfeeding.
Their mommies are lowering their risks of getting breast cancer.
According to a new study, women who breastfeed lower their risk of
developing an aggressive form of breast cancer often found in women of African
American or Sub-Saharan African descent.
The cancer subtype, called
hormone-receptor negative, is an aggressive strain of the disease that is more
likely to be aggressive and life-threatening, researchers said.
