Breast Cancer - PREVENTION, Causes, Lies & Prejudices

Did you know that "Breast Cancer Awareness Month" came about from AstraZeneca, a pharmaceutical company that also manufactures herbicides and pesticides that are known to cause cancer? AstraZeneca also manufactures Tamoxifen, drug used for treatmant and prevention of breast cancer,that The American Cancer Society lists as a known carcinogen, because it increases the risk of uterine cancer.

----------------------------------------

Unfortunately for women, there is so many misinformation and prejudices about this very unpleasant disease that started in last few decades to affect us much more often then ever before.

There are various interest groups who benefit a lot from the breast cancer, among them are:

• that ones who earn big amounts money for offering the treatments for it even on the ways that are non-beneficial for many. Ironically, the same ones at the same time produce products that are causing cancers (as various foods, pharmaceuticals, full of artificial hormones and toxins that interfere with endocrine balance and immunity)
• that ones who incorporate traditional sexist`s beliefs it in false theories about cause of breast cancer, while trying to imprison women by presenting them this disease as result of their inappropriate social behaviour in modern age.
• that ones who treat "Breast Cancer Awareness Month" just as easy opportunity to sell plenty of useless and very often cancerogenic products to the people who are naive enough to believe that are donating their money to find the cure to disease.

I don`t know which group makes me more sick and ashamed of humanity.

The truth as I see it is following:

Breast cancer is not new disease, it is very old and exists for many millenniums among humans. The problem we face today, is exponentially growing percentage of women, men and children who are affected by it, much bigger then it was ever before, what we can easily connect with style of life we have today.

It is interesting fact that body of every person creates tumor and cancer cells every day, but healthy immune system kills them so we are not even aware of that. When immune system fails, cancer can win the battle.

There are several types of breast cancer, but 90% of cases are caused by hormonal imbalance, mainly by lack of progesterone hormones and excess of estrogen hormones.

The main reasons for growing number of women affected by breast cancer are the following:

1. Stress and traumatic experiences

2. Carcenogenic food

3. Endocrine disruptors

4. Awareness without offering a cure

5. All types of hormonal contraception and hormonal therapies

6. The way women treat their breasts

1. Stress and traumatic experiences

Stress is the most effective killer. Prolonged stress causes permanent hormonal imbalance that is especially affecting balance of sexual hormones. Stress also kills immunity, and low immunity cannot protect body against tumor and cancer cells.

Prolonged stress in very competitive world we live in is one of the important reasons why women today start with perimenopausal changes much earlier then women of previous generations.

.Modern society demands a lot from women, so they most often accept much more duties then they are able to solve in few short decades of their productive life- today they usually struggle between challenging jobs, earning money and carrier and family responsibilities - care about children, home and partner...this is not easy, especially when is at the same time expected from them to look young and attractive, to keep their jobs and partners. All what I mentioned would not be so stressful if we would live in supportive societies, not in competitive ones, but this is not a case.

If woman does not want to accept all above mentioned duties (F.e. if she decides not to have children or not to get married), society as a whole basically does not support this decision and punish her - with higher taxes to pay (if not married), with critics, judgment, constant pressure to give birth and treats her like she is not normal and equal member of human community, like she did not fulfill her female duty. Even worse then that: society creates researches to convince such women that their health is seriously endangered if they stay childless, and they childlessness leads to breast cancer. Stress occurs again.

Stress is hormonal imbalance itself. Our bodies are build to cope with very small amounts of stress, when we face stress daily and regularly, our defend systems stop to work properly.

Unhealed Traumatic Experiences-

Psychologically breasts are connected with our most intimate relationships, with our parents, love partners, children. With ability of giving love - but also with receiving it as well. Breasts are connected with our attitude about womanhood and our ways how we treat and value ourselves...as women. If our relationships are not dignified, if our worthiness is suppressed in everyday life and we constantly feel degraded especially when we give the best from ourselves - it is possibility that problem will affect sensitive breast tissue. Mind directly influences the body.

Cancer usually happens to the women who try to give too much and do not know how to receive the best for themselves. They constantly stretch themselves beyond their abilities, have high aspirations to do the best for many people, while forgetting themselves. Breast cancer is connected with constant tendency to sacrifice for others, with problems, with low self esteem, lack of self-worthiness and certainly with accepting too many responsibilities without receiving gratitude for the work done.

Cancer is also connected with suppressed feelings of guilt, anger etc.

Unhealed traumatic experiences lead to the low immunity, prolonged negative feelings always cause hormonal imbalance, because hormones and feelings are the same. Cancer eats healthy parts of body on the same way that our negative past memories or present circumstances are destroying our joy

2. Unhealthy foods we eat cause breast cancer

• Meats
• Diary products
• Fast food
• Processed food

Meats and diary products are one of the top causes of cancers, especially breast cancer and prostate cancer. Farmers give to the animals (cattle, poultry) various hormones (as rBGH) for fast growth and higher production of milk and eggs, as well as various antibiotics that destroy immunity. In addition, all these animals are fed on the artificial way full of cancerogenic and toxical additives. These all medicines and additives destroy the general health of those animals over the 1-2 years, and all that we also ingest while eating animal proteins. After years of consuming such food that causes hormonal imbalance and lowers immunity, people just create fertile land to the tumors and cancers to develop.

I cannot be more serious about it.

There are some scientific opinions about animals proteins and their cancerogenic effect :

 .

You should check this videos about hormones in milk and their influence on health:

.

3.Endocrine disruptors

There are various chemicals, we use in everyday life that have ability to disrupt physiological function of endocrine glands, because they act like hormones in endocrine system.

In lower doses these chemicals are not toxic on classical way, when we use them, we do not get poisoned, neither drop dead immediately, but they daily cause endocrine imbalance in our bodies, that are highly sensitive on the most tiny amount of hormone-like agents.

Endocrine disruptors which act as estrogens (Xenoestrogens), and imbalance of hormones that preceed to typical breast cancer cases can be found in:

• all meats we produce for human consuption, pork, chicken, turkey, beef, as well as :
• in the dairy products ( due to the food they eat that is highly unhealthy, full or herbicides, pesticides, antibiotics and various other additives for fast growth and better production, plus hormones I mentioned in previous chapter)

Many chemicals acts as endocrine disruptors and artificialy rise estrogene levels, and disrupt estrogenes/progesterone balance:

• plastics,
• car excaust,
• detergents,
• pesticides
• herbicides
• various cosmetic products.
• various medications and synthetic hormones that cause serious hormonal disruption (various contraception pills, corticosteroids, anti-deppressants are only few of them, the list is, as usually, very long)

Price we pay for the pollution of our environment and irresponsible playing with chemicals is very high - we pay it with health. Avoiding such products as much as possible helps in restoring hormonal balance.

............

Important: Phytohormones (phytoestrogenes) DO NOT act as endocrine disruptors. In plants / herbs phytohormones are restoring and keeping the balance, and they act like that in human bodies. The problem arises when plants are not grown organically - herbicides and pesticides are the one that can cause problems, because they stay deponed in the plants.

How the same endocrine disruptors affect health of the men, you can read in my Hub: MALE GENDER IN SERIOUS DANGER

4. Awareness without finding a cure

Awareness without offering a cure means that you have to constantly face death penalty and you never know if your mercy petition will be approved or rejected. Such attitude brings constant stress and constant fear, that can lead to a lot of self-induced health problems, among them is certainly hormonal imbalance that leads to the risk of tumors. Stress and fears daily kill so many people, so I do not belive in awareness without hope.

Medicine feels pretty helpless about the breast cancer. There are still many speculations about the causes of it (medicine does not officially recognize the cause), it is very little done on prevention of breast concer and not much about healing it on on non-agressive way. Mastectomy, chemoterapy, radiation, hormonal therapy with artificial hormones are very aggressive treatmants . They are not a cure. Actually many women who have already low immunity die because of side effects of these aggressive treatmants.

Awareness about any disease does not help much if we do not have cure for it. Chemoterapy and radiation (and possibility of full mastectomy) causes panic among the women, because these treatmants do not guarantee positive outcome, but do bring a lot of additional suffering and worsen overal health condition. They are treatmants, not a cure. Some women succeed with such treatmant, many more die in deep suffering, some develop new cancers later once due to the side-effect of treatmants they destroy healthy cells as well.

.

If I would not deeply belive in my own methods of healing and my own ownership over my health, I would be certainly also scared to death. And I am not.

.

5. All types of hormonal contraception

Women are paying their sexual freedom with the highest possible price, since hormonal contraception is invented.

Artificial hormones are not the same as human ones. Women who face cancers and other tumor-like problems are so often for years on some hromonal contraceptive therapy (pills, intrauterine devices) or any possible hormonal replacement therapy, or hormonal antagonist therapy or on various medications that influence hormonal levels (corticosteroids, mind altering drugs as SSRI anti-depressants, and many other medications that cause hormonal imbalance)

Artificial estrogenes cause tumors and cancers, because they do not have component that exist in natural estrogenes which prevents that tumors become developed. There are 3 estrogene hormones,(estradiol, estrone and estriol), artificial ones have only one of them - called estradiol, and dominant presence of particulary this one helps tumors to develop and grow.

Sinthetic progesterone (progestin, levonorgestrel) is also not harmless. Recent clinical trials indicate that synthetic progestins may stimulate progression of breast cancer in postmenopausal women, what is not surprise because synthetic hormones never act as human ones.( http://cancerres.aacrjournals.org/content/67/20/9929.abstract)

6. Lack of tenderdness towards breasts

Breast consist of highly sensitive tissue - they are not meant to be treated roughly, especially not in intimate moments. Do not allow your partners to treat them as basket balls or knead as bread dough, rougly chew or do anything what causes you discomfort of even pain if you want to protect them from tumors.

Protect yourself from pain and inflammation during the breast feeding.

Breast implants (breast augmentation) is also highly risky for healthy breast tissue as very as various surgeries for breast correction.

8. Mammograms :

Please read my Hub: Mammograms Can Cause Breast Cancer

Use thermograms instead of mammograms.

Although many of causes of big amount of cancer cases we face today are obviously induced by part of science and medicine (as artificial hormones, especially hormonal contraception, artificial food, chemicals, medications that cause hormonal havoc) scientists decided to wisely cover that facts and started to perform researches that would lead the mind of women on another, wrong track. Such "researches" are done on various women around the world, and later we got statistics that say that women in industrially undeveloped parts of the world have less breast cancer cases then in more developed. Without proving whether is that correct or not (statistics are so easy to manipulate) and if it is, what could be overal reasons for that (F.e less pollution, less artificial hormones, less stress, healthier food) they gave us simple-minded conclusion that this is because of much more children women have in non-industrial countries of the 3rd world, and that childbearing and breastfeeding is the best possible prevention against breast cancer. And sex as well. Results of researches do not say anything more then that, neither there is no real analysis performed, neither any intelligent explanation given.

Such "researches" are shame for human intelligence, because they are performed without any deep analysis, on the highly primitive level, while consciously manipulating and misleading women and convincing them to embrace idea that they are self-responsible for what is happening to them, because they do not want to have plenty of children each, always stay uneducated at home, because they do not want to live in poverty and obey their male masters, like many women in the many 3rd world countries still need to do. In addition to all that, women in the 3rd world countries also have breast cancer, they are unfortunatelly not protected from it, no matter how many children they have and nurse, and their cancer cases are worse then any of us can imagine due to the poverty, malnutrition and any type of medical care. Do not belive in everything you read in statistics.

-

1.Does breast cancer attacks more women who remain childless (this theory sexists like to sell as prevention against breast cancer) ?

No. This is just nonsense. . Through the pregnancy woman experiences natural raising up of hormones, but not every woman feels comfortable during the pregnancy. Many women develop various other hormonal problems - with pancreas, adrenal glands, thyroid or pituitary gland, during and after pregnancy and these problems continue for years after child is born, some of them never get healed. Not every pregnancy is easy, some childbirths are real horror, if women are physically unprepared, not healthy enough or malnutrishioned they get completely exhausted from all of it and face health problems for many years to come. It is known that even today so many women die during and after childbirth (especially in poor countries, or regardless economic status of the country if they are poor or - just not healthy enough).

It is very silly, primitive and highly irresponsible to proclaim pregnancy as cure for anything. If this would be correct men would need to be full of breast cancer, because they cannot stay pregnant, neither they breastfeed. Male and female bodies do not differ so much.

-------------------------------

2. Is breastfeeding protection against breast cancer? Especially prolonged one?

This is another primitive theory that have roots in lack of knowledge. Breastfeeding is needed if woman has baby and it primarily is needed for the health of baby. It has also great benefit in emotional/psychological bonding of mother and child. Many women do not have enough of milk, or the milk is not quality enough, many of them just loose it after some time, so they stop with breastfeeding earlier then planned. It is nothing wrong with that, neither that cannot affect woman`s health on negative way. Many woman should not breastfeed while on various medications or due to the various health problems they have. Every natural and tender way to cease lactation when is right time to do it for mother in the baby is harmless.

Some "experts" recommend prolonged breastfeeding (as long as 2 years or even longer) as breast cancer prevention, and those are usually men. Well, in some countries (as well as among some people) is tradition that lactating women breastfeed their husbands or male partners. Of course that such men see big benefit in prolonged breastfeeding, when they recommend it, but for themselves only, this advice cannot save any woman from any cancer. On the contrary, too much breastfeeding can cause damage to the breast tissue, on many ways, as well as prolonged breastfeeding can disrupt normal hormonal balance:

Hormones that woman secretes during lactation are not bearable neither too healthy for prolonged secretion - during lactation hormone prolactin is up (to produce milk), progesterone is down while estrogenes are overproduced. Only hormone oxytocin (hormone of joy and bonding) is welcomed during the breastfeeding, and it might prevent excess of estrogenes to cause tumors and cancers, but this is still just hypothesis, not fact . Oxytocin is realised when baby suckles the nipple, but if breastfeeding is painful, there is actually no oxytocin. Besides oxytocin, mentioned hormonal levels during lactation, if prolonged when there is no need for it , can even lead to the tumors in some women if they force themselves to do it . Whenever woman feels that she is "fed up" of breast feeding, she should stop it, because her hormonal levels require restoring balance (balance means: no excess of prolactin (that is also stress hormone), higher level of progesterone, lower of estrogenes, what is recipe for health of the breasts and rest of the body, not the vice versa).

Women who have too many children and breastfeed for too many years are actually in higher danger of developing various health problems, then other women, among those problems are breast tumors for sure.

What about women who do not have children and will never breastfeed?

They will never have above mentioned extreme ups and downs in hormonal levels, and not having these extremes is actually excellent for health and for immunity. Childless woman can preserve her energy for another things in the life, and basically has opportunity to live less stressful life. Of course the health problems can arise if woman is for too long deeply unhappy with remaining childless, but this is primarily psychological problem, for what we can be "thankful" to the prejudices of society. If woman is for years using hormonal contraception, and overally lives highly unhealthy and stressful life, risk of developing cancer is higher, no matter if she has or does not have children.

-----------

3. Sex as protection from breast cancer? Well...

This not-so-correct theory is also developed in connection with mentioned hormone oxytocine that woman do release in higher quantity then men during the GOOD sex. Because oxytocine might have positive impact on prevention of tumors and cancer, women got new one-minded recipe more - sex is allegedly good protection from breast cancer.  This recipe was given by male scientists, of course and if followed can be  dangerous weapon for many.

Is it really sex prevention against breast cancer ?

• If relationship is healthy, balanced and progressing, if partners are sexually compatible and relationship has future - safe sex is certainly great for raising up vitality and joy of life.
• But - If relationship is bad or without future, stressfull and degradating for woman - reliase of oxytocine during the intercourse actually makes her stay falsly emotionally chained to Mr Wrong and blinded by illusion of "love" for person who does not deserve it. That leads to deep disappointment and various illnesses, and yes, deep disappointment and emotional pain can lead to the cancers. Pain is also much deeper if level of oxytocine used to be higher.
• In addition, if woman does not enjoy in sex - there is no oxytocine as well, so no use of sex, even damage can be done, especially if it is painful.
• I also doubt that oxytocine can neutralize negative effects of hormonal contraception neither neutralize the negative effect of fear from unwanted pregnancy.  

----------

Oxytocine is not reliased only during the breastfeeding and sexual intercourse - every act of kindness, tenderness, hugging, human-to-human asexual touch also reliases oxytocine. Also when we are tender to ourselves. Whenever we are tender and kind to any other living being. So we do not need to have sex with men to be happy and healthy and protected from breast cancer- we can have sex only if we choose so. Sex is not ultimate cure for anything, neither protects from breast cancer.

So, how to prevent breast cancer?

1.Avoid above mentioned triggers as much is possible

2. Regurarly control your hormonal levels and balance them on natural ways (herbs, homeopathy, meditation, outdoor activities, enough of sleep, enough of daylight, enough of joy)

4. Use thermogramms for checking your breasts - they are safe, you get results immediately

5. Herbs for prevention and protection against breast cancer:

• Turmeric - breaks down toxins, stimulates the immune system, is a powerful anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant. It also specifically stops breast cancers from growing. It does this by causing cancer cells to die, stopping new blood vessels from growing and feeding tumors, and helping to prevent metastasis or spread of tumors. Turmeric also enhances the anti-tumor effects of two other natural breast cancer fighters: soy and green tea. For instance, turmeric makes the anti-cancer effects of green tea 8 times more potent and makes soy far more effective in blocking estrogen receptors in breast cells. Turmeric might be also able to minimize cancerogene side-effects of hormonal therapies.
• Various antioxidants as: grape seeds, resveratrol, mangosteen, acai, pomegranate, noni, goji, blackberries, blueberries.
• Evening primrose oil - balances hormones

• Esiac mixture - that consists of Burdock Root , Sheep Sorrel , Slippery Elm Bark, Turkey Rhubarb - herbs that have great blood cleansing and antitumor properties

• Herb Astragalus - has ability to block estrogen receptors and have excellent properties for immune system that helps body to destroy tumors and cancer cells

• Royal Jelly - balances hormones, have antitumor and anti-metastatic properties

You can buy them on my website: Natural Healing

These herbs can be given even to the people who go through classical medical treatment against cancer (radiation, chemoterapy) and they signifficantly increase survival rate after mentioned treatmants.

Homeopathics: Carcinosin, Oxytocin and others, according to the need of individual.

6. Healthy diet is of big importance.

7. Minimize level of stress on healthy natural ways: exercize, outdoor activities, enjoy in sunshine, meditation, relaxation techniques, laughing, learn to LOVE YOURSELF

8. Vitamins and minerals
