Women With Overweight/Obesity and a History of CVD are 31% More Likely to Develop Breast Cancer – IARC

IARC – International Agency for Research on Cancer / World Health Organization shared on LinkedIn:

These findings suggest preventing obesity among postmenopausal women with CVD may lead to greater reductions in breast cancer incidence compared to the general population.”
