Breast cancer is one of the top killers of women. According to the Americancancersociety.org "Breast cancer is a malignant tumor that starts in the cells of the breast. A malignant tumor is a group of cancer cells that can grow into (invade) surrounding tissues or spread (metastasize) to distant areas of the body.The disease occurs almost entirely in women, but men can get it too".
Breast cancer symptoms includes all and more of these below
- Swelling of all or part of the breast
- Skin irritation or dimpling
- Breast pain
- Nipple pain or nipple turning inward
- Nipple discharge excluding breast milk
- A lump in the underarm area
- Redness, scaliness, or thickening of the nipple area or breast skin.
You can prevent or reduce the onset of breast cancer by cultivating a nontoxic lifestyle doing the following.

Limit alcohol consumption: The more alcohol you drink the greater your risk of developing breast cancer. Limit alcohol consumption--- when you choose to drink alcohol including beer, wine or liquor limit yourself to no more than one drink a day. If you're a wine lover try my favorite wine by America's first organic Winery called frey organic red wine made without sulfites and harsh ingredients. You can get a bottle of frey organic wine at twinliquors.com for about $9.99. It is not as sweet-sugary as other wines like reunite but it's very smooth and will relax you.
Hint---Breast feeding is healthy for your breast because the longer you breast fed your kid the greater your protection from breast cancer.
Do not use long-term hormonal therapy because it can increase your risk for breast cancer. Also you can choose abstinence, birth control herb like paintbrush or withdrawal method as an alternative to birth control pills and patches to reduce your risk for breast cancer.
Avoid exposure to carcinogenic or immune disrupting cosmetic ingredients, cigarette smoke, avoid carcinogenic food additives, avoid been overly exposed to environmental pollution like polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons found in vehicle exhaust for a long period of time. Also avoid toxic chemical ingredients like parabens, phthalates, Diethanolamine (DEA), Triethanolamine (TEA) and Monoethanolanine (MEA) etc; and food ingredient like BHT, BHA, MSG, ASPARTAME and more.
Control your weight: Being over weight or obese increases the risk of breast cancer. This is especially true if obesity occurs later in life, particularly after menopause.
Do get plenty of exercise because being physically active can help you maintain a healthy weight and mood which, in return helps prevent breast cancer. 45minute to one hour every 4 days a week of brisk walking, jogging, dancing, yoga and more alkaline food without high corn syrup, wheat gluten, refined flour and artificial sugar can really helps trim weight gain.
Eat plenty Alkaline food containing good fat like Avocado, flaxseed, Bananas etc. Alkaline water and good herbal supplements like Alive whole food energizer multi-vitamin max potency containing vitamin D may be useful. Drink plenty of raw fruit juice or purified water with lemon.
Finally, i don't reccomend routine annual mammograms---radiation therapies and chemotherapy but seek an alternative advice first---Try an alternative screening called "Breast Thermography".
"Breast
Thermography is an FDA approved screening tool for detecting breast cancer and
has no harmful effects on the
body. I can't imagine a more important way to support your
health than actively engaging in preventative screenings. And what better gift
to give yourself than health and peace of
mind?
This
screening is perfect for women of all ages who are concerned about developing
breast cancer and want to take a pro-active approach to their health. I notice
that many of my female patients resist screening tests because they are "afraid
to find out" if something is going wrong. The good news about Breast Thermography is
that we can detect cellular changes up to 10 years prior
to the cells becoming cancerous" -------from Santa Cruz Naturopathic Medical.
Dr. Juli Mazi, N.D. (Naturopathic Doctor) from Santa Cruz Naturopathic Medical Center says Breast Thermography is an excellent imaging technique for detecting breast cancer. There is no radiation involved and no compression. We offer this as a clinic to our patients and to the community. The next Breast Thermography Clinic is May 18-19. If you're interested in signing up for this, call 831-477-1377.
Let's go beyond the Pink Ribbons, No wars, No fights to join-----there are Alternative preventive remedies as well as post treatments available----seek and you shall find---don't give up on yourself, don't be afraid---You'll be fine !
