15. Undergoing hormonal replacement therapy
According to a recent study published in the Lancet Journal, there’s a strong connection between hormone replacement therapy and breast cancer. Most women often use HRT during menopause, so, before taking this path, talk to your doctor.

Supplements and vitamins were created to improve our health, but they can have serious consequences on your body if you abuse. A study from the University of Colorado Cancer Center also proved it. It seems that taking way too many doses of any supplement can eventually lead to cancer.
The study was made on beta carotene supplements and concluded that a higher beta carotene intake increased lung cancer risk by more than 20 percent.
