October is celebrated worldwide as ‘Pink October’ to raise awareness of breast cancer. This month is dedicated to spreading information about prevention, early detection and treatment options, and to supporting those affected and their families.
The podcast focuses on prevention. Topics such as nutrition, exercise and stress management are the main focus.
Nutrition and prevention: Experts recommend a balanced diet, rich in antioxidants, and minimising alcohol consumption.
Exercise is key: Regular physical activity strengthens the immune system and helps maintain a healthy body weight.
Pink October is an opportunity to educate yourself about breast cancer, take advantage of preventive check-ups and support affected women. The Swiss Medical Network podcast offers valuable information on the latest developments in research and gives practical tips on prevention.
We can all contribute to the fight against breast cancer by having regular check-ups, leading a healthy lifestyle and being aware of the disease.
