Breast Cancer Awareness: don’t be driven by fear

It has been said by some independent health researchers that as many as 75% of all of the cancers we are now experiencing are preventable, yet the cancer industry merely pays lip service to primary prevention while focussing on early detection, which is not prevention.  The cancer industry makes billions of dollars from exorbitantly expensive screening programmes and even more expensive and highly invasive drugs, surgery and cancer-causing radiation, all of which are after the fact and all the while playing on our fears and good intentions, compelling us to dig deep and donate more and more money towards the search for the "CURE".

As many as 90% of women who underwent breast cancer procedures may have received more harm than benefit.

Please be clear about my position:  I am very much in favour of research into the root causes of disease and into primary prevention.  But I do have serious concerns that the people are being duped into not only emptying their pockets, but also laying their bodies on the operating table for little or no health benefit.

The cancer industry thrives on disease growth - not disease reduction

Of course there will never be a cure simply because cancer is caused by a myriad of factors that a single intervention will never be effective against on it own.  In my opinion we already know enough to prevent the majority of cancers and until there is more balanced allocation of the billions of Government and donor dollars for TRUE cancer prevention and not just for more research and after the fact treatment, I will not be supporting any cancer fund-raising efforts, including the vast Pink Ribbon corporation.  Especially when these fundraising campaigns use fear to prey upon people.

Hi gary,
Breast Cancer Awareness: don’t be driven by fear
By Trudy Scott, CN (Certified Nutritionist)

Dr. Nalini Chilkov's new book

October is Breast Cancer awareness month so here are 7 resources to keep you informed, hopeful and inspired to take charge of your overall health and breast health - for prevention and healing!

#1 Reduce stress in your life. Here is a blog post I wrote in 2010 with information from my colleague Ellyn Hilliard: 10 Unique Ways to Support You During Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Reduce the stresses in your life. Calm the nervous system. Meditate, go on a walk...

Start to look at chemicals in your life. Find natural alternatives to cleaning products.

#2 Exercise to prevent cancer and have fun at the same time 

up to a third of breast cancer cases in Western countries could be avoided with a nutritious diet and exercise

If exercise is a chore, find something fun to do and it will be a totally different experience 

#3 Be aware that a lot of pinkwashing goes on - it's quite awful how people are being taken advantage of. And know there is so much you can do that is healing and preventative. You can read more here: Pinkwashing for the cure (ridiculous!) or green for prevention?

Pinkwasher: (pink'-wah-sher) noun. A company or organization that claims to care about breast cancer by promoting a pink ribbon product, but at the same time produces, manufactures and/or sells products that are linked to the disease.Helyane Waldman's book "The Whole-Food Guide for Breast Cancer Survivors: A Nutritional Approach to Preventing Recurrence"Rebecca Katz's "The Cancer-Fighting Kitchen: Nourishing, Big-Flavor Recipes for Cancer Treatment and Recovery"

#4 Ann Louise Gittleman, author of The Fat Flush Diet and Get the Sugar Out, just posted a great blog on how to become a breast health warrior 

Raise your daily Vitamin D intake (D is like a hormone rather than a vitamin) to at least 1,000 - 4,000 IU to reach a level of at least 52 ng/mL. Women with serum levels at <13 ng/mL level had a 50% higher risk than those with levels of 52 ng/mL.Get the Sugar Out! Plain and simple, cancer feeds on sugar which is known to immobilize white blood cells for up to five hours.

#5 Dr Nalini Chilkov is my cancer referral source and she has a new cancer booklet called 32 Ways to OutSmart Cancer. It has beautiful back-to-basics advice about eating nourishing nutrient-dense, antioxidant- and polyphenol-rich real whole food. I especially like the section on herbs and spices and love the chapter on gratitude. Here is a yummy salmon recipe from her blog. 

#6 Be hopeful and optimistic. My colleague Fran Sussman shares her journey and story of recovery from breast cancer in this article called I am a breast cancer survivor: There is hope. Fran will be offering six-week support classes for women diagnosed with breast cancer starting in December.

I've come through it, with great resilience and rebounding health. I feel better than ever post-breast cancer, at age 60. I am healthy; my doctors concur.What can you do for prevention? Support your body with optimal nutrition, exercise, sleep and hydration. Use nutrition to minimize inflammation and insulin resistance.Acknowledge and work with your fear, but don't be driven by it.

#7 And my final piece of advice is stated so beautifully by Fran: "Acknowledge and work with your fear, but don't be driven by it." Anxiety and depression is very common in people who have been diagnosed with cancer so look for and get support in this area too, so you are not driven by your fear. 

You may need to address low GABA levels, keep your blood sugar stable with good quality protein at breakfast, support your adrenals, and drink calming carob instead of coffee.

Join us on The Anxiety Summit, Nov 3-16, and learn more about nutritional and natural solutions for anxiety - many of which improve overall health and wellbeing too.

Oral cancer not linked to tooth decay - What on Earth is going on here?

People with more cavities in their teeth may have a reduced risk for some head and neck cancers, a new study suggests.

That's because lactic acid bacteria produced by cavities may be protective against cancer cells, the study authors said.

"This was an unexpected finding since dental cavities have been considered a sign of poor oral health along with periodontal disease, and we had previously observed an increased risk of head and neck cancers among subjects with periodontal disease," said lead researcher Dr. Mine Tezal, an assistant professor at the University at Buffalo, State University of New York.

Tezal was quick to note, however, that the finding doesn't mean people should let cavities develop in hopes of preventing these cancers.

"The main message is to avoid things that would shift the balance in normal microbial ecology, including overuse of antimicrobial products and smoking. Rather, you should maintain a healthy diet and good oral hygiene, by brushing and flossing," she said.

The report was published Sept. 12 in the online edition of JAMA Otolaryngology -- Head & Neck Surgery.

____________________________________
Gary:
The "elephant in the room" is so obvious that this study, and the way it is being reported, leaves me rolling about on the floor, near paralyzed with laughter.  Where did these people get their educations - Mars?  Can't be from Earth.

The elephant is DENTAL X-RAYS

Evidence is growing that the prime cause of as many as 75% of all cancers is ionising and non-ionising radiation from sources including, medical and dental procedures, cell and cordless phones, nuclear reactors and even airport body scanners.  Other carcinogens include hormone therapy (HRT, oestrogen contraceptives), toxins (arsenic, fluoride, many prescription drugs, bisphenols etc) and sun burn.

A person who goes to the dentist for regular checkups can be assumed to:

• Have fewer, if any, rotten teeth while 
• Having had many more x-rays to the head and neck over their lifetimes (as many as one lot per year), as compared to those who don't go to the dentist regularly (These are the ones with bd teeth); so
• We can expect more head and neck cancers within the population of those people who have had fewer visits to the dentist and, therefore, had fewer x-rays over their lifetimes.

While there may be a bacterial connection I think this is a "Red Herring" to distract everyone from the truth -

Dental x-rays do cause cancer and their study inadvertently provides more evidence!

Dentists and oral surgeons have a huge professional and financial stake in the widespread use of x-ray equipment.  Like doctors, who are equally hooked into the use of cancerous x-ray machines, they are not about to admit that zapping their patients with countless mostly unnecessary x-rays may be the primary cause of the cancer epidemic that is causing immense suffering.  Think of the law suits!

First rule of medicine:  

First do no harm

Most dentists will blatantly deny that his very expensive modern x-ray machine causes cancer, and he will allay your fears by pointing out that you get more radiation when you fly in a plane.  He may add that his machine emits tiny amounts of "low energy" radiation, which is far safer than x-ray machines of old.  He's telling you lies:

• There is absolutely no minimum safe limit for exposure to ionising radiation.  Moreover, the damage caused by radiation is cumulative over one's lifetime and the longer one lives, the more likely that those exposures over one's lifetime will be expressed as an aggressive cancer.
• The high energy cosmic radiation that one is exposed to when flying at altitude, tends to pass straight through the body, causing minimal damage in the process.  
• Because of its slower speed of travel, the low energy, ionising radiation of modern x-ray machines tends to get trapped inside the flesh, bouncing around like a ping-pong ball, doing immense damage in the process, before exiting the body.
• For the sake of argument, let's accept, for a moment that these "lower powered" machines might be safer; but here's an additional problem: These machines are ubiquitous - they are everywhere - we can't get away from them!  One of the reasons given for the soaring cancer rates in developed nations, is that people in developed countries are being zapped left, right and center as compared to their counterparts in less developed nations!  We have to cut back - not increase our exposure to cancer-causing radiation.

Actually, the people who conducted this study were educated on Earth:  They are merely sticking to the party line to perpetuate the lie, parroting what they have been told by their Professors in the universities: The lie that X-rays are safe - and dare not think or say anything to the contrary!

Yeah - Right!

I feel a Tui Beer ad coming on!

The evidence has been around for several decades and growing stronger by the day:

X-rays do cause cancer

There is something very fishy about the study linking fish oil with increased prostate cancer

So, fish oil might increase aggressive prostate cancer!  I think not.  More often that not studies like these, that are outliers of the general trend of research on a topic usually end up being proved to be wrong.  In this case, the resounding trend is for fish and other omega 3 oils to have numerous health benefits, including reduced prostate cancer risk.

In the meantime, sadly, the media is having a field day.  The damage is done.

So what's wrong or weak with this study?  Rather than me try to explain, here is an article by Denise Minger that shows the risk of jumping to conclusions on the basis of a single study:

Is Fish Oil Linked to Prostate Cancer?

This is a special guest post from expert study-dismantler Denise Minger. (Read Denise’s previous guest posts – Will Eating Whole Grains Help You Live Longer? and High Fat Diet Linked to Breast Cancer? – and her blog at Raw Food SOS.) Enter Denise…
Like salmon? Pop fish oil? Got a prostate? Then listen up. A new cancer study rolled in this week, and at first glance, it looks like bad news for any fish-loving men out there. A team of researchers at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center found a disturbing link between blood levels of DHA – that darling omega-3 fat abundant in seafood – and the risk of developing aggressive, “high-grade” prostate tumors.

The eyebrow-raising results of the study showed that:

• Compared to folks with low DHA levels, men with the highest levels were 2.5 times more likely to wind up with aggressively growing prostate tumors.
• Men with the highest blood levels of trans fatty acids were the least likely to get aggressive prostate cancer. (Say what?)

According to the researchers, very few of the study subjects were supplementing with fish oil – so these findings probably don’t reflect unbridled mega-dosing of omega-3 fats. Despite its consistent role in boosting heart-health, it looks like fish oil could be a double-edged sword. And maybe a stick of trans-fatty margarine is really a cancer cure. Intriguing, eh?

Something’s Fishy

Cancer trust gives less than five percent of donations

A registered cancer charity has donated less than 5 per cent of the $1.1 million it has collected from New Zealanders over four years.
http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10872348

____________________________
Gary:
If you want to make easy money, get a few mates together to form a charity that collects money for cute kids who are ill/poor and charge exorbitant administration fees while paying yourself and your fellow Trustees outrageous fees!

I have thought about this for some years now while observing the proliferation of numerous fund raising charities with their extravagant and emotionally charged advertising campaigns.

The problem with trusts like the one outed in this Herald article is that they make families, like ours extremely reluctant to donate to causes, especially those that employ door-knockers and telemarketers.

What about the Research Progammes that get the 5% of funds, Gary?

Well, I do wonder often whether they are any better: Sure we need more research into the causes of cancer, Parkinsons, etc but how much is really going into useful research and how much is being soaked up by excessive administration and exorbitant professional fees? (More about professional fees shortly in another article).

When it comes to most cancers, such as breast, bowel and prostate cancer, there is a huge amount that we already know that may reduce the toll of cancer by as much as 70%.  But this information remains muted at best.

I, for one, would donate more to cancer and other research programmes, if more resource was put into primary prevention, using what we already know.  At present too much of precious financial resources goes into research for new patent medicines and only a fraction into telling the public what they can do to help themselves.

But I will not hold my breath over this one, because the primary motivation of research into diseases like cancer, is to find the next patentable drug.  We know that elements, like iodine, can have a profound effect on many cancers and diseases like those affecting the thyroid; but iodine will never be promoted because you can't patent an element unless it is packaged in such a way that it can be patented.  And iodine consumption has dramatically reduced over the last 30 years due to the "No Salt!" message by the Heart Foundation.

Moral of the story: Donate with care!
