A healthy diet may reduce the risk of certain types of cancer, as well as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and stroke. Women who consume a Mediterranean diet supplemented with extra-virgin olive oil and mixed nuts, for instance, may have a lower risk of developing breast cancer. The Mediterranean diet emphasises plant-based foods like fruits and vegetables, whole grains, legumes, and nuts. People who adhere to the Mediterranean diet favour olive oil over butter and consume fish instead of red meat.

Methods to reduce the risk of breast cancer:

1) Limit alcohol: The more alcohol you drink, the greater your risk of developing breast cancer.
The general recommendation — based on research on the effect of alcohol on breast cancer risk is to limit yourself to no more than one drink a day, as even small amounts increase risk.
2) Maintain a healthy weight: If your weight is healthy, work to maintain that weight. If you need to lose weight, ask your doctor about healthy strategies to accomplish this. Reduce the number of calories you eat each day and slowly increase the amount of exercise.
3) Be physically active: Physical activity can help you maintain a healthy weight, which helps prevent breast cancer. Most healthy adults should aim for at least 150 minutes a week of moderate aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity weekly, plus strength training at least twice a week.
4) Breast-feed: Breast-feeding might play a role in breast cancer prevention. The longer you breast-feed, the greater the protective effect.

5) Limit postmenopausal hormone therapy: Combination hormone therapy may increase the risk of breast cancer. Talk with your doctor about the risks and benefits of hormone therapy. You might be able to manage your symptoms with nonhormonal therapies and medications. If you decide that the benefits of short-term hormone therapy outweigh the risks, use the lowest dose that works for you and continue to have your doctor monitor the length of time you're taking hormones.
