RE: [cancercured] Re: Mammography

What is listed is proof that there is no reliable screening for breast
cancer and this is actually the same for most cancer screening. And, of
course, most screening adds more toxins to a body that may already be
over-loaded. Radiation is a definite cause of cancer and there is no such
thing as a "safe" dose. Every person should keep that in the back of their
mind. The smashing of the breasts makes fertile ground for DCIS to spread.
The recommended force to be used in order to compress the breast tissue
enough for a proper mammogram is 300 newtons. That's the equivalent of
stacking 50 one-pound bags of sugar on the breast.

My own Mother was a good little soldier and followed all the American Cancer
Society recommendations for women's health - yearly mammogram, a recommended
hysterectomy at age 38 followed by synthetic hormone shots until age 72,
synthroid beginning in her later twenties and a yearly pap smear. She was
diagnosed with invasive breast cancer and DCIS at the age of a very young 77
(wonder if it became invasive because of the yearly smashing of her
breasts!), had surgery to remove some of the tumors and passed away two
years later. By the way, the mammograpms did NOT pick up the DCIS until it
had already spread. She had a thermogram after doing some natural treatment
and it did not seem to show cancer (moral of this story is to have a
baseline thermogram done at an early age if you feel that testing is
profitable). She was not able to keep up with her natural protocol because
of dealing with my Dad who was slowly going down-hill with Alzheimer's - as
you can guess, the emotional stressors for her were great and this is when
she began going down-hill.

Dr. William Campbell Douglass, Jr. recommends the following:

Don't get a mammogram and don't bother with self-examination. (My comment:
There are a lot of docs that think early detection is not as wonderful as we
are made to believe. Many cancers will take care of themselves if left
alone.)

Be serious about your diet.

Take 500 mg of thiamin (B1) twice daily. It does wonders for lumpy breasts
and may help prevent breast cancer (I have no proof of that), unnecessary
visits to the doctor, and unnecessary surgery.

Take one drop of Lugol's solution (iodine) daily in a glass of water. Iodine
is excellent for breast health. A few people are allergic to iodine-observe
closely for rash after the first dose. An even more effective treatment with
Lugol's solution is to paint the cervix with it. Often the lumps will
disappear before the patient leaves the doctor's office! (According to Dr.
David Derry - In 1993 Ghent and Eskin published a landmark paper on the
treatment of severe fibrocystic disease of the breast with iodine
supplements. This paper was the result of more than 30 years of marvelous
research by Dr. Bernard. A. Eskin of the Medical College of Pennsylvania in
Philadelphia. First in animals and then in humans he proved fibrocystic
disease of the breast is the result of low dietary iodine. He has shown also
that this can go on to develop into breast cancer. I feel Dr. Eskin's
research represents a major step toward conquering breast cancer and likely
other cancers.)

Take flaxseed oil twice a day.

Avoid trans fatty acids in margarine and vegetable shortenings, used in most
processed foods.

If you are a potential mother, remember to breast-feed your babies. Women
who breast-feed are much less likely to get breast cancer.

Get plenty of sunshine. Breast cancer is less frequent in areas where there
is ample sunlight un-obscured by smog or fog. As added insurance, eat oily
fish and take cod liver oil as sources of vitamin D.

Drink water free of chlorine and fluorine.

Get plenty of calcium from raw milk and bone broths.

If you develop a large lump in the breast, do not submit to more surgery
than a simple lump removal and do not allow them to cut into the lymph nodes
in your arm pit.

Pass on the radiation and chemotherapy. Radiation is highly destructive of
not only tissues, but the immune system, which then makes you more
susceptible to all diseases. It is usually a terrible price to pay for a
temporary shrinkage of a tumor.

I would add the following:

Eat as close to nature (mean unprocessed foods) as possible - organic and
non-GMO foods. Meat and dairy should be organic and pasture-fed and not
grain-fed. If you drink milk it should be raw - better yet would be to
drink hemp milk, etc.

Decline synthetic hormone replacement. Check out iodine therapy and natural
progesterone for thyroid conditions, cysts and fibrocystic breast disease.

Keep hormones balanced through diet, supplementation, exercise, sunshine or
Vitamin D-3.

Use lymphatic drainage techniques such as rebounding, deep breathing and dry
skin brushing.

Get a good fitting bra. There are some very good ones out there, however
they tend to be pricey.

Control environmental toxins as much as possible.

Work on anger and negative emotions!

While living as cancer-free as possible will not guarantee 100% that cancer
will not develop (actually everyone develops cancer at one time or another
in their life time) or will not return, it will go a long way in supporting
the body to repair and heal in a natural way.

Be Well

How should women screen for breast cancer?

1. Mammography - surely will cause all women to die according to the
die-hards. Though digital mammograms use less radiation. Not good for
dense breast tissue.
2. Thermography - no one knows about it and it isn't available in the
majority of cities. To be used in conjuction with other screening
tools.
3. Ultrasound - May not pick up microcalcifications. Thus not picking
up many early cancers. To be used in conjuction with other screening
tools.
4. MRIs - Not covered by most insurances for screening. Too many false
positives so many doctors will not use them. To be used in conjuction
with other screening tools.
5. Self-breast exams - Many women never have lumps until the cancer is
very far advanced.

I feel that all women need to make the best choices they can for
themselves. No one should be made to feel poorly if they have chosen
mammography or not. There are, unfortunately, no clear answers.

Even living a cancer-free lifestyle will not assure anyone of remaining
cancer free.

So, do your best. Make the best choices you can.
