I am no researcher, nor a medical specialist. I am just a woman doing anything and everything I can to minimize my risks of developing cancer, despite being a BRCA2 carrier. So personally, I feel especially empowered by the research increasingly focusing on the chemical endocrine disruptors and carcinogens that are ubiquitous in our foods and consumer products. I feel empowered by this research to make better and more informed decisions that will better enable me to avoid cancer.
