Obesity is linked to an increased risk of various health issues, including cancer, but does the timing of weight gain make a difference? A recent study suggests that women should pay extra attention to weight gain after the age of 35, as it could significantly impact their risk of developing breast cancer.
The latest study published in Cancer Biology & Medicine suggests that the relationship between changes in body mass index (BMI) changes and cancer risk is quite complex. Researchers found that weight gain during key hormonal transitions, such as after age 35, can significantly influence breast cancer susceptibility. The results suggest how managing weight during this critical period could play a pivotal role in reducing breast cancer risk.
