Comments (0)Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the whole world. It has a high mortality rate especially when diagnosed in the latter stages. Breast cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer in women. Because of my work in the hospital, I have seen many patients suffer from the said disease. I have seen all the loneliness that it has brought the patients and their families because they know how hard it is to cure the disease. They have to go under different treatments like surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy surgery, immunotherapy.
The treatments are highly toxic to the body that it affects even the normal cells. There are many bodily changes that will also occur while having the treatment. As time passes researchers are finding more ways to combat cancer. The latest of which is using the broccoli component which is sulforaphane to target stem cells that aid in the formation of tumor growth. Though this was not yet tested in humans, this is has a high potential breakthrough to prevent or treat breast cancer.
