Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The topic of primary prevention focuses on reducing the risk of getting breast cancer in the first place. A dietary discussion concerning the connection between breast cancer and dietary intake is relevant to this topic as certain foods and nutrients may increase or decrease the risk of developing breast cancer. Techniques for performing self-breast examination (B) and recommendations for mammography (C) are more focused on early detection rather than prevention. Treatment options (D) are not applicable to primary prevention as they are used after a diagnosis of breast cancer has been made.
