Breast cancer is rated the number one cancer killer for Chinese woman, according to the statistics released by the Cancer Hospital of Shanghai Fudan University. The statistics showed that between 1991 and 2000, the death rate for urban woman has grown over 39 percent and is still growing at 3.5 percent each year. The experts attributed the rate increase to unhealthy diet and delay in child birth age as well as no breast feed chosen by certain women.
