Cancer is a prevalent illness that spreads throughout the human body's circulatory system and eliminates human life. The human body contains an abundance of cells that grow, divide, and die conventionally. Occasionally the immune system collapses, and a haphazard number of cells grows, resulting in cancer. Cancer cells clump individually and form a tumor, an extra mass of tissue. Breast cancer is a complex heterogeneous disease that has been posed as the world's second-largest root of mortality. Therefore, therapeutic strategies are becoming highly ineffective is reached clinical scarcity due to massive side effects and multidrug resistance. Lupeol is non-toxic, further study is needed to determine its chemo-preventive potential as a better alternative to fatal chemotherapeutic agents in breast cancer patients. Therefore, in this chapter, we fundamentally reaffirm Lupeol’s preventive properties in the breast cancer model, with a focus on multi-targeted natural and molecular impacts.
