There seems to be pink everywhere in October. Ribbons and the color pink help to remind everyone of the importance of early breast cancer detection.

Who’s at Risk Several factors indicate a woman is at a higher risk of devel-oping breast cancer:

• Age - The risk of developing breast cancer increases with age. Some 77 percent of new diagnoses of breast cancer each year are in women over the age of 50.

• Personal medical history - Women with a history of breast cancer in one breast have a three- to four-times higher risk of developing a new cancer in the other breast. Women with a history of benign breast growths are at a higher risk.

• Breast density - Cancer is more likely to occur in breasts that have a lot of lobular and ductal tissue (that is, dense tissue) than in breasts with a lot of fatty tissue. In addition, when breasts are dense, it is more difficult for doctors to see abnormal areas on a mammogram.

• Radiation exposure - Women whose breasts were exposed to radia-tion during radiation therapy before age 30, especially those who were

treated with radiation for Hodgkin’s lymphoma, are at an increased risk for develop-ing breast cancer.

• Family history - You have a higher risk of developing breast cancer if a close rela-tive has had the disease.

• Lifestyle - Studies have shown that the use of al-cohol may be linked with a higher risk of breast can-cer. In addition, some stud-ies have linked obesity with a potentially higher risk. And while the final word is not yet in, still other stud-ies have indicated that a healthy lifestyle, including exercise and a diet low in

fat, especially saturated fat, is linked with a reduced rate of breast cancer.

• Other risk factors - Women who started menstruating at an early age (before age 11), who have had no children or didn’t have their first child until after age 30, or who didn’t go through menopause until after age 55 have a slightly higher risk of developing breast cancer.

Breast examination “Early detection improves the chanc-es that breast cancer can be treated successfully,” says Kay Groeschl, RN, a breast health coordinator with Agne-sian HealthCare Women’s Imaging who serves with Lisa Michels. “A clinical breast exam by a healthcare professional should be a part of a woman’s regular physical check-up.”

Breast self-examination is another way to discover abnormalities. “You should know what is normal for your breasts. If there are any changes, see your healthcare provider as soon as possible,” say Groeschl.

Mammograms Mammograms can detect breast abnormalities before you can actually feel them. Mam-mograms remain one of the most effective tools for detecting breast cancer in its earli-est, most treatable stage.

“Scheduling a mammogram should be part of a woman’s annual check up,” say Toni Stan-ley, MD, board-certified general surgeon with Agnesian HealthCare’s Fond du Lac Regional Clinic. “A mammography screening every one to two years, starting at age 40 is recom-mended. Special circumstances, such as a family history of breast cancer, may indicate a need for earlier mammograms.”

Every woman’s situation is unique and you should discuss your healthcare plan with your personal healthcare provider.

Agnesian HealthCare offers the latest screening tool for the early detection of breast cancer, state-of-the-art digital mammography. With digital units in both Fond du Lac and Waupun, providers can accommodate women conveniently in two locations.

These systems provide the largest field of view currently available, which can be extreme-ly helpful for precision imaging of patients with diverse shapes and sizes.

There are many advantages of a digital system. The images are clear and easy to read, and it offers a better view of the breast, especially near the skin line, chest wall and in women with diverse breast tissue types.

Digital images are processed electronically in real-time, meaning a digital mammographic image can be displayed in a matter of seconds for the mammography technologist to evaluate if the image is technically OK. Once the exam is completed, the images are sent to the radiologist for comparison to previous exams and interpretation.

“Digital mammography expands our ability to protect the breast health of women and to de-tect breast cancer earlier in more women,” according to Bill Daly, director of Medical Imaging with Agnesian HealthCare. “While traditional film mammography is very good, digital mam-mography provides better and more detailed images for a significant number of women.

Think pink. Know your medical history and the risk factors. Have annual exams and know how to perform a self-breast examination monthly after your cycle. For more information on breast health, visit agnesian.com. ●

• Mammogram: A special type of X-ray that shows an image of the inside of the breast.

• Lumpectomy: Surgery where only the lump, a border of surrounding normal breast tissue and usually (but not always) under-arm lymph nodes are removed.

• Mastectomy: Surgery that removes the entire breast and usually (but not always) underarm lymph nodes.

• Radiation therapy: Commonly used after a lumpectomy. During treatments, a ma-chine sends high-energy x-rays directly to your breast and possibly to your underarm, destroying cancer cells remaining in these areas.

• Chemotherapy: Treatment with cancer-fighting drugs that travel through the bloodstream to reach cancer cells any-where in the body. It may be used to reduce the chances of the breast cancer coming back in women who have no evidence of the disease or used in women who have the disease that needs treatment.

• Hormone therapy: Treatment to block or counter the effects of estrogen, which can fuel the growth of some breast cancer cells.

• Tamoxifen: Anti-estrogen drug taken af-ter surgery, usually for five years, to reduce the chance of cancer coming back. It is also used to treat metastatic breast cancer and prevent the development of breast cancer in women at high risk.

• Aromatase inhibitors: Drugs that stop estrogen production in postmenopausal women.

• Herceptin: A monoclonal antibody that at-taches to a growth-promoting protein that is present in small amounts on the surface of normal breast cells and most breast cancers.

Breast cancer affects one in eight women in America.Approximately, 2.5 million women are survivors of breast cancer worldwide and fewer women succumb to breast cancer each year due to awareness, advancements and early detection.

Whether a woman is fighting the disease or hoping to prevent it, diet can play a key role, experts say. Researchers continue to study the role certain foods play in raising or lowering a woman’s risk of developing the disease, and what role diet plays in staying healthy after a cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Hospitals, nutritionists and oncologists all have recognized the merit of increasing certain intake of foods.

Eating a healthy diet is not necessarily about avoiding certain food com-pletely, but, rather, seeking to consume a balanced diet.

For a breast cancer survivor, reducing the risk of a recurrence or other can-cer may involve a slow but steady diet change, best planned with a regis-tered dietican and an oncologist.

A consultation with a registered dietician is recommended because food can be a friend or a foe during active treatment.

A few tips from registered dieticians:• Engage in a whole foods diet, meaning plenty of fruits and vegeta-

bles, fiber, water and good taste in at least five servings per day. Plant sources are emphasized.

• Add to your grocery list olive oil, Omega-3 fish sources and nuts.

• Also recommended: lean meats, fish, skinless chicken, egg whites and legumes. All provide low-fat proteins. Get carbs in whole-grain foods with fiber, skim or 1 percent milk, fruits, vegetables and le-gumes. ●

Only about a third of American women are meeting their fruit and vegetable intake rec-ommendations, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. And that means they are likely missing out on poten-tially important breast and ovarian health ben-efits. Along with vitamins, minerals and fiber, fruits and vegetables contain a type of phy-tonutrient called carotenoids, which research suggests help support women’s health includ-ing breast and ovarian health.

Based on a new report called America’s Phy-tonutrient Report: Women’s Health by Color, older women have total carotenoid intakes 20 percent greater than younger women af-ter accounting for differences in caloric intake. Similar to the original America’s Phytonutrient Report: Quantifying the Gap which found that on average eight out of 10 American adults are falling short on phytonutrient consumption, the new report revealed a troubling shortfall, this time among women and carotenoids. America’s Phytonutrient Reports are released by The Nutrilite Health Institute, a worldwide collaboration of experts who are dedicated to helping people achieve optimal health – through research, education, and practical, personalized solutions. Nutrilite is the world’s leading brand of vitamin, mineral, and dietary supplements, based on 2008 sales.

Carotenoids are compounds that give fruits and vegetables their vibrant colors, which re-search suggests may offer breast, ovarian and other health benefits for women. Using

NHANES energy-adjusted data to compare the diets of women 45 years and older with those younger, the report finds that many women of all ages lack carotenoid-rich foods in their diet, but the relative magnitude of the “carotenoid gap” is greater among women less than 45 years old as compared to older women.

“This points to a troubling phenomenon where younger women may be missing some of the benefits of consuming more carotenoid rich fruits and vegetables, and yet calorie for calo-rie, older women are eating more of these im-portant nutrients,” said Keith Randolph, Ph.D., Technology Strategist for Nutrilite.

Powering Up ProduceChoosing to increase the amount of the fruit and vegetables richest in carotenoids is impor-tant for long-term preventative health among women. While foods like spinach, tomatoes and carrots are certainly part of a healthy diet, there are opportunities for women to choose a wider variety of produce.

“It’s concerning that so many American wom-en lack a variety of carotenoid-rich foods in their regular diets,” says Amy Hendel, Nutri-lite’s Phytonutrient Coach. “By selecting the most carotenoid-rich produce choices, wom-en can purposefully increase their carotenoid and phytonutrient intakes which can impact health significantly as they age.”

Hendel, a registered physician assistant and health/wellness expert, offers these easy substitutions to “power up” your plate and add new flavors to your meal plan:

Green: A serving of cooked kale provides tri-ple the amount of lutein/zeaxanthin as a serv-ing of raw spinach.

Red: A serving of guava delivers more than one and a half times the lycopene in a raw to-mato.

Yellow/Orange:

• A serving of sweet potatoes has nearly double the beta-carotene as a serving of carrots.

• A serving of carrots delivers four times the amount of alpha-carotene as a serving of winter squash.

• A serving of fresh papaya has roughly 10 times the beta-cryptoxanthin found in an orange.

Hendel adds, a good goal for most individuals is to consume 10 servings of fruits and veg-etables daily, with an emphasis on quality, not just quantity. If this proves challenging, con-sider a natural, plant-based dietary supple-ment which includes phytonutrients such as carotenoids.

Inside a milk duct of a breast, the DNA of a cell is damaged. The damage is not repaired. Yet the abnormal cell does not die. It multiplies.

So begins the odyssey of breast cancer.

When a cancer is confined to the duct, it is called ductal carcinoma in situ, or DCIS. This “stage zero” cancer, called noninvasive because it has not invaded the breast tissue, has been detected more frequently in recent years be-cause advanced imaging technologies allow it to be seen.

Invasive cancers are labeled at stages one through four, depending on their size and how far they’ve spread, or metastasized. Breast cancer tends to metastasize to the liver, lung and bone.

Most women who are diagnosed with breast cancer sur-vive and do very well. When breast cancer is caught early, greater than 90 percent of women survive.

New screening techniques help

That good news is due in part to an array of screening techniques — including mammography, breast ultra-sounds, MRI and breast-specific gamma imaging — and sophisticated treatments.

Since breast cancer is a hormonal disease, experts say anything that increases a body’s exposure to estrogen over the life cycle increases risk.

There are several risk factors. Doctors point to life events that maximize ovulation, which produces estrogen to re-build the uterine lining after menstruation. Also, if you had an early first period; if you never had a child; if you had a

child later in life; if you had a late menopause; if you had more than 10 years of high-dose estrogen, such as in birth control pills; and if you used hormone replacement therapy.

Though breast cancer is still the most common among American women, second only to skin cancer, its incidence has dropped 2 percent a year since 2002, according to a report released by Harvard researchers a few months ago.

The report linked the drop to a decrease in the use of hor-mone replacement therapy after the publicity surround-ing a federal Women’s Health Initiative study on the topic. The study was abruptly shut down in 2002 after it showed hormone replacement therapy put women at increased risk for both heart disease and breast cancer.

Obesity is a risk factor for breast cancer, according to some doctors, because fat tissue transforms androgen into estrogen.

Yet another risk factor is, simply, age. The older a woman gets, the odds are higher that she’ll get breast cancer. It isn’t until age 60 that her risk becomes as high as one in 27, according to the National Cancer Institute.

And after all the recent debate on mammograms pro-duced no clear-cut resolution, women should decide for themselves if they would rather face a false positive re-sult or have the testing every year after age 40. Also, self exams are encouraged. Doing both increases the odds of finding asymptomatic breast cancers, or a lump, early in the disease process — and is likely to keep those inci-dence numbers on a downward trend. ●

Cancer coping tips:• Ask for help. Accept help from parents, friends, strangers; join support groups. Asking for help is a strength, not a weakness.

• Don’t lose sight of who you are. Being a cancer survivor isn’t your whole identity. Keep your goals; do things that bring you joy.

• Surround yourself with a positive environment. Avoid people or things that are negative. You need as much positive energy as you can get.

It is extremely important for breast cancer survivors to maintain a healthy weight. Being overweight and gaining weight after treat-ment ends have been linked to poorer survival and cancer recur-rence, according to the Susan G. Komen Foundation. Zumba is a fun, dance fitness party that enthralls participants to move and become healthy. Zumba FDL and the Susan G. Komen for the Cure have partnered to host a ‘Party in Pink’ Zumbathon Fundraiser on Friday, Octo-ber 22nd at Fond du Lac High School from 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm. Tickets are $15 and all proceeds benefit Susan G. Komen for the Cure. RSVP for tickets by email [email protected] or you can purchase tickets at the door.

Breast cancer survivors have many unique sources of stress. Although it can be hard, there are healthy ways that can help deal with this stress. “I am happy to see so many women finding a healthy outlet to their stress in Zumba.” says Zumba instructor, Kirsten Quam. “Zumba can help with so many health issues before and after they have occurred.”

Being overweight and gaining weight also increase the risk of other health problems, such as heart disease and diabe-tes. Regular physical activity and eating a healthy diet are the best ways to maintain a healthy weight.

Zumba instructors from Northeastern Wisconsin and Zum-bafanatics from across the area will participate in Fond du Lac’s own Party in Pink to support Breast Cancer Aware-ness on October 22nd! Anyone and everyone is welcome in Zumba and anyone and everyone can do Zumba! ●

In fact, according to the National Sleep Foundation, a short nap of 20 to 30 minutes can help improve mood, alertness and performance. And when a person is fighting a disease such as breast cancer, connecting with your cat - especially during a restful and regenerative cat nap - provides a calming influence, according to a recent Purina Cat Chow survey.

Inspired by one cancer survivor’s touching story of the role her cat played during her battle with cancer, Purina Cat Chow is do-ing its part to help the fight against breast cancer. For the third consecutive year, the company is donating more than $200,000 to Susan G. Komen for the Cure and will raise awareness for breast cancer through its “Cat Nap for the Cause campaign.” In addition, when a person becomes a fan of www.facebook.com/purinacatchow and registers to take a cat nap this Octo-ber, another $2 donation will be made to Susan G.

National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Celebrity cat lover and breast cancer awareness sup-porter Kate Walsh joins the campaign to raise funds and awareness.

“One of my favorite things to do is hang out with my cats Billy and Pablo ... and I’m not kidding. I know many people share the same bond with their pets,” says Walsh, star of the ABC hit show “Private Practice.” “As a cat lover and daughter of a courageous woman who has been a breast cancer survivor for more than 10 years, I’m thrilled to support a campaign that empowers cat lovers and breast cancer supporters to make a difference and raise funds simply by taking a cat nap this October.”

The Purina Cat Chow national survey found that 84 per-cent of women battling breast cancer said their cat had a calming effect on them during their treatment. Cats also provided daily support to the patient, according to 76 percent of survivors surveyed.

Dr. Karen Sueda, a diplomate at the American College of Veterinary Behaviorists, says that cats are perceptive to their owners needs during an illness.

“Whether pet owners are fighting a disease such as breast cancer or going through a rough period in life such as job loss or financial stress, their cats often display in-tuitive behaviors of knowing when they need extra love and support,” says Sueda.

Susan G. Komen for the Cure is the world’s largest grass-roots network of breast cancer survivors and activists fighting to save lives, empower people, ensure quality care for all and energize science to find the cures. The organization has invested more than $1.5 billion toward ending breast cancer, becoming the world’s largest source of non-profit funds dedicated to the fight against breast cancer.
