"Should Women at High Risk for Breast Cancer Avoid Soy?"

involving more than 10,000 breast cancer patients

But what about women who carry breast cancer genes?

Fewer than 10% of breast cancer cases run in families,

but when they do it's most likely mutations

to one of the tumor suppressor genes, BRCA1 or BRCA2,

and so if either one of them is damaged, has mutations,

This idea that we had tumor suppressor genes

the cancer cell doesn't turn the normal cell malignant,

rather the normal cell suppresses the cancerous one.

There are gatekeeper genes that  keep cancer cells in check,

that's why their function is so important.

Until recently, dietary recommendations for those with mutations

by eating lots of antioxidant packed foods,

about damaging your DNA  in the first place.

But what if we could also   boost BRCA function?

In my video on the topic, the last one I did,

I showed how in vitro, soy phytoestrogens

But does that translate out of the petri dish

So a healthy diet may be particularly important

Meat consumption, for example, was linked

to twice as much risk in those with BRCA mutations,

97% increased risk instead of just 41% increased risk of breast cancer

but just more important when there's more risk.
