Breast cancer is the second most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer death among women in the United States. Hu Naiwen, a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) physician at the Shanghai Tong Te Tang in Taipei, Taiwan, shares his knowledge on his YouTube channel to help viewers better understand and prevent breast cancer, as well as fight cancer through the TCM practice of acupoint tapping.
Breast cancer is a disease where breast cells grow out of control. Data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) show that approximately 264,000 women and 2,400 men are diagnosed with breast cancer in the United States each year, and about 42,000 women and 500 men die from the disease. Additionally, the death rate from breast cancer is higher among black women than among white women. Although the mortality rate of breast cancer has decreased in recent years, the harm it poses should not be underestimated.
