Abstract

Breast cancer is a complex disease influenced by genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors. Lifestyle choices, including diet, physical activity, alcohol consumption, and weight management, play significant roles in modulating breast cancer risk. Understanding the impact of these lifestyle factors and implementing effective prevention strategies are crucial for reducing breast cancer incidence and improving overall public health. This article reviews current research on the relationship between lifestyle factors and breast cancer risk, highlighting mechanisms underlying their effects. It discusses evidence-based prevention strategies, including lifestyle modifications and behavioral interventions, aimed at lowering risk and promoting breast health. By elucidating the interplay between lifestyle choices and breast cancer risk, this review aims to inform healthcare providers, policymakers, and individuals about proactive measures for mitigating risk factors and optimizing breast cancer prevention efforts.
