Dr. Robert Whitfield warns that processed foods and pesticide-laden produce, especially berries with thin skins, can harm breast health by damaging your gut. Poor gut health from these exposures links to worse outcomes for both brain and breast tissue.
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, you know, 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.
