Posted By Dr. Mercola | November 01 2007 | 1,940 views

Breast cancer has risen sharply in Beijing, China's capital, and in Shanghai, its top financial centre during the last decade due to unhealthy diets, a poor environment and increased stress at work, state media reported on Tuesday.

In Beijing, the incidence of breast cancer has increased 23 percent in 10 years, with about 45 women out of every 100,000 diagnosed with the disease, the China Daily said, citing the Beijing Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
