Today is October 19 and, as every year,
World Breast Cancer Day is celebrated. And why is this day celebrated? Because it is vital to make society aware of
the great importance of research and early diagnosis .
Breast cancer is the
most common type of tumor among Western women (in Spain around 32,825 new breast cancers are diagnosed each year), although it also affects 1% of the male population.
Support for research is crucial in the fight against this terrible disease. Thanks to research, breast cancer mortality has been significantly reduced in recent years.
As with any other disease,
prevention plays a very important role in reducing the risk of breast cancer. A healthy, active lifestyle and a balanced diet will help you lower your risk level.
In addition,
self-examination will help you detect any possible problem at an early stage and early diagnosis is one of the best ways to increase the possibility of overcoming this disease. It is imperative that you regularly perform a thorough examination so that you can detect any abnormalities.
At La Newyorkina we are very committed to healthy and active living and, above all, we are very committed to research to combat this scourge that touches too many people from near and far.
That is why
we want to do our bit so that research against breast cancer does not stop. We want to raise our voice to raise awareness to everyone we can that this is a fight for everyone and, above all, we
want to give an injection of strength to all those heroines who fight daily against breast cancer, as well as their families and friends who fight this battle with them without fainting.
Today there is a color par excellence: pink. You will surely see fountains dyed pink, facades illuminated with this color, and a multitude of pink ribbons on lapels.
That's why we have decided that
during this weekend we will donate 10% of the sales of
Granola Pink through
our website to the Spanish Association Against Cancer. If you buy Granola Pink between today and next Sunday, October 21st, you will not only be buying a pack of granola, you will be contributing to create what we have called La Fuerza Pink.
And what is The Pink Force? The energy of many people who know that the fight against cancer is collective, the strength that sustains the great fighters.
Will you join us?
