*Just a quick note – if anyone wants to guest post for my blog in August, please email me and let me know, I have a couple lined up but some more never hurt when taking exams 😛 – email me at gobakeyourself@yahoo.com.au*
Now, let us begin this post… enjoy! 🙂
Ok, so do you remember meeting Ms Gluten-Free Machine, Lorna Foreman?
Well, allow me to introduce you another fantastic author – Ms Patricia Dean-Escoto – HOW COOL IS MS DEAN-ESCOTO’S NAME? 😀
But more than the name, more than the cool, it is what Ms DE is trying to promote around the world, and that is preventing cancer, specifically breast. Let me give you some stats:
*Taken from Cancer Australia*
- In 2010 in Australia, Breast Cancer was the second leading cause of female deaths by cancer, accounting for 15.3%
- In 2009, it was recorded that the likelihood of developing breast cancer before the age of 85 years old was 1 in 8 women
- In 1982, the number of breast cancer patients was 5,317 – in 2009, it was 13,668Â
Is it our environment? Is it natural in humans? What is causing this increase?Â
For now, cancer is threatening, it is a disease which takes lives easily, it is the stark truth of the matter. While we wait for a drug to be made which will forever eradicate the fatality associated with it, we have to take care of ourselves and promote and encourage our community to as well. This is why I am so proud to be hosting Ms DE, who is promoting this through her wonderful new book, Top Ten Superfoods For Preventing Breast Cancer.Â
