Over the past few decades, breast cancer has been a pervasive and distressing experience for American women. Plant Powered Metro New York hosts Dr. Ron Weiss for this free, special presentation marking Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

When Dr. Weiss graduated from medical school in 1988, breast cancer was diagnosed in one out of every eleven women in America. Today, one in eight American women are diagnosed with the disease. How did the cancer incidence rise so quickly? Dr. Weiss will explore the reasons why, as well as what we should know about breast cancer screening. He will explain the evidence and mechanisms of how whole unrefined plant foods are effective in the prevention and treatment of breast cancer. He will also discuss which foods promote breast cancer progression and why.

A Zoom meeting link will be sent to registrants on the day of this event.
