Answer 1

Why do people develop breast cancer?
The exact cause of breast cancer is unknown. However, factors contributing to developing breast cancer are being female, advanced age, heredity, poor diet, alcohol, obesity, hormones, environmental causes, tobacco smoke, radiation exposure, dioxins, and poor light exposure.

Do you get it from your mom?
Breast cancer is not an infectious disease you contract from someone else. However, heredity may play a role in developing breast cancer. In 5% of breast cancer cases, there is a strong inherited familial risk. If a mother or a sister was diagnosed breast cancer, the risk of a hereditary gene mutation is about 2-fold higher than those women without a familial history.

Do men develop breast cancer?
Men have a much lower risk of developing breast cancer. About 1.08 per 100,000 men are diagnosed with breast cancer every year, and this figure is increasing.

Answer 2

There are a variety of reasons for a person to get any type of cancer. One of the major factors in all types of cancer is the person's diet and their lifestyle habits.

Everyone has cancer cells in their body. It results from mutated DNA that causes the cells to grow and multiply without control. For most of us, our immune systems will recognize this problem and take care of it before it becomes too large. When the group of cells grows large enough to be noticed there are already thousands of cells, and the cancer is named after the location or type of tissue where it is located.

Some men do get breast cancer, but it is not spread directly from their mothers.

I don't follow the normal theory of hereditary diseases. I believe that most illness are caused by lifestyle factors such as our diet, the amount of exercise, the environment, and our habits are learned from our parents. If we do the same things as our parents, then we can expect to have the same illnesses.
