Risk Factors for Breast Cancer Too Broad to Be Very Useful

Therapeutics refers to the science of therapies or remedies/cures for disorders/illnesses of the human body, both mental and physical. Knowledge of risk factors pertaining to any particular disease would help reduce that disease in the population. It is the submission of the current work that the risk factors listed (as part of the related therapeutics) for breast cancer currently, may be too broad to be really useful to women. The outcome is an ever-rising number of breast cancer cases, the most widespread female cancer disease in the United States of America. The verdict for certain food and drink items like alcohol should be made, sooner rather than later. More work should be done to pin down the specifics of each of the risk factors listed by the appropriate agency/authority involved.
