Summary:
"A comprehensive
guide
to total breast health from the go-to breast care expert for Good Morning America and The Doctors. One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast
cancer
over the course of their lives, and breast
cancer
is the #1 killer of women ages 20-59. But did you know that only 15 percent of those diagnosed have a single relative with breast
cancer
? For most of us, family history and genetics do not determine who gets breast cancer--we do! You have power over this disease. In
BREASTS
: The
Owner
's
Manual
, Dr. Kristi Funk shows you how to harness that power. This practical
guide
equips women with the most up-to-date tools for
cancer
prevention and outlines a compassionate roadmap for
treatment
options. Kristi Funk, MD, is a Board-certified breast
cancer
surgeon based in Los Angeles and co-founder of the Pink Lotus Breast Center, which has transformed the delivery of breast healthcare in America. Long before Dr. Funk performed Angelina Jolie'
s
widely-discussed double prophylactic mastectomy, Dr. Funk strategized with her about the most effective and honest way to communicate her decision to the world. Their announcement led to a permanent increase in preventive testing for the BRCA gene. Now, Dr. Funk takes the broader conversation about total breast health to women everywhere with this straight-talking
guide
. Her mission is to educate as many women as possible about what they can do to stop breast
cancer
before it starts.
Every
year, 1 million cases of breast
cancer
are diagnosed globally, with more than 240,000 in the US alone.
BREASTS
: The
Owner
's
Manual
will help many women avoid this unwelcome journey and will provide wisdom and practical advice for those already walking this challenging path."--From publisher.
