Will eating honey make breast nodules worse?

Eating honey for breast nodules generally does not directly aggravate the condition, but it needs to be judged based on individual circumstances. Although honey is rich in nutrients, the sugar it contains may affect hormone levels in the body, especially for some people who already have hormone disorders. Long-term excessive intake may have certain adverse effects.

The main causes of breast nodules include genetic factors, fluctuations in hormone levels in the body, and unhealthy lifestyles, among which high estrogen levels are one of the important pathological factors. Honey itself does not contain estrogen, but high sugar levels can induce insulin secretion and fat accumulation, and the increase in body fat may indirectly promote the production of estrogen, which may bring potential risks to hormone-dependent diseases. For simple breast hyperplasia nodules, eating honey in moderation is harmless to the body, but it is recommended to avoid excessive intake. For patients suspected of being at risk of malignancy, special attention should be paid to the types of food intake, fat and high-sugar diets should be controlled, and the doctor's treatment should be cooperated with, and changes in lesions should be reviewed regularly. If the breast nodules are obviously painful, it means that the tissue may be inflamed or abnormal hormonal stimulation, and more attention should be paid to dietary structure and etiology treatment.

In order to reduce the hidden dangers of breast health caused by improper diet, daily diet should be healthier. Patients with breast nodules can eat more foods rich in dietary fiber, such as oats, brown rice and vegetables, to help excrete excess hormones in the body; choose foods rich in antioxidants, such as blueberries and green tea, which can help tissue repair and reduce inflammatory responses; reduce the intake of high-fat, high-sugar and spicy foods. At the same time, maintaining a regular schedule and moderate-intensity exercise, such as yoga and swimming, can also optimize the balance of hormones in the body. Most importantly, patients with breast nodules should undergo regular ultrasound examinations and follow-up, especially when there are obvious enlargement, pain and other changes, consult a doctor in time to avoid delaying treatment. Diet, as a means of auxiliary intervention, should vary from person to person and should be combined with formal medical measures.
