For many years, the pink ribbons have fluttered within the multicolored jewel tones of Fall, indicating a special time to become aware of the risks and realities of breast cancer. At the Center For Natural and Integrative Medicine, we focus on preventative medicine and healthy lifestyle choices.

We feel that Breast Cancer Awareness should go on year round, and not just for October, or just for a special day or a season of pink ribbons. It is this mission that has compelled us to present a free seminar, September 18, at 6:00 P.M., at the Center For Natural and Integrative Medicine, entitled “Stop Breast Cancer Before it Starts.”

Don’t Play Russian Roulette With Your Breast Cancer Risks!

If you or someone you love is at risk, or has an intensified concern about this disease, you are warmly welcomed to attend this program, free of charge.

During the program you will learn what risk factors can be modified to lower your risk for breast cancer. You will discover definitive changes you can make in your daily life to avoid this maiming and deadly disease. You will also learn about things you can not change. For example, if you were born a woman, your chances of contracting breast cancer are statistically one hundred times greater for developing breast cancer than if you were born a man.

Three Big Things Everyone Should Know About Breast Cancer:

Dr. Thomas Moraczewski will present information to you about these essential areas of breast cancer and your health:

I. What are your potential risk factors of contracting this disease?

II. What are the early detection practices, and how can they help you avoid a deadly prognosis?

III. What can you do to prevent a recurrence of breast cancer once you have survived it? Did you know that 25 to 30 percent of breast cancer survivors must fight the disease a second time?

Please consider this our personal invitation to become not only aware of breast cancer, but educated about it. We ask you to kindly RSVP for this popular free seminar because our seating is limited. Please call 407-355-9246, and secure your place. The information you learn could save your life, or life of someone you love.

Hold These Three Thoughts:

Do you know that breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in women? Sadly, the first cause of cancer death among women is lung cancer.

Do you also know that we now have more than 2.8 million breast cancer survivors, including those still being treated, in the United States?

According to the American Cancer Society, “the chance that breast cancer will be responsible for a woman’s death is about 1 in 36 (about 3%).” We feel that education, concerning such information as early detection is essential in reducing these statistics.

Thank you for reading this week’s blog from the Center of Natural and Integrative Medicine, and we hope you will mark your calendars for our very special seminar,  “Stop Breast Cancer Before it Starts,” on Sept. 18th.

Yes, we will proudly wear our pink ribbons in October, but we wear them in our hearts all year-long.
