British scientists have conducted a major study on the relationship between breastfeeding and breast cancer. A survey of 750 thousand women showed that breastfeeding is one of the most powerful means of preventing breast cancer, including in its most aggressive forms, leading to death. Experts are convinced that if women did not voluntarily refuse to breastfeed their newborn babies, a huge number of cases of breast cancer could have been prevented.
Very often, women do not want to breastfeed children for a reasonably banal reason - they consider it "unglamorous", spoiling the outlines of their figure.
Curiously, recent studies have shown that the effect of breastfeeding on the prevention of breast cancer is small. Now, more impressive results have been established: breastfeeding reduces the risk of cancer by 20%.
