Short transcript excerpt of Robert Whitfield MD answering a question about dietary risks for breast health. He warns against heavily processed foods and preservatives, highlights concern about pesticide residues (glyphosates) on thin-skinned berries (the 'dirty dozen'), and links gut health to brain health.
What would you say are the worst foods for breast health? Oh, gosh. Anything that's got a ton of processed elements or preservatives in it. I think I try to get all of our patients to really understand carefully those. And actually, the dirty dozen in the food groups is a lot of people love berries, and the berries have very thin skin. So you have to be incredibly diligent about that because they absorb all the glyphosates, and that wreaks havoc, basically, on your gut. And if you can eliminate those types of things, your gut health will be better. And if your gut is better, then your brain will be better. Yeah, that checks out.
