It is no secret that medically prescribed hormones are extremely dangerous. Since 2002, when the Women’s Health Initiative was published knowledge of the dangers was made public. I still run into women taking medically prescribed hormones once in a while, but I hope it ends today. In todays New York Times a new bomb shell was dropped.
Another study proves the dangers of these hormones
Since it is still October and Breast Cancer awareness month I hope women continue to take less and less of these toxic drugs. It is up to you to help all of your friends become more aware of the dangers of taking medically prescribed hormones. No more…
An ominous fact that medical science never discusses is that as soon as women STOPPED taking the drugs back in 2002 the rates of Breast Cancer fell.
Things you should know
In the new breast cancer study the two most significant findings:
- If women were taking the hormone drugs and they developed breast cancer, the cancer was more aggressive and invasive than in women who didn’t take the drugs. Suddenly hot flashes sound better than cancer.
- The drugs also increased breast tissue density and made detection of cancer mush more difficult.
So let’s think about this…
Drugs obviously are unhealthy. We as a society seem to have looked the other way when they are prescribed by a person in a white coat instead of a guy in a back alley van.
Your best defense is a good offense
Think about prevention now, because the odds are heavily stacked against you. So here is what I recommend to my wife.
1.Avoid sugar, I know this includes chocolate, so maybe just reduce the amount you consume. If you have cancer, then NO sugar. Sugar feeds cancer.
2.Exercise! It can decrease your cancer risk by 35%.
3.Eat good hormone producers -raw butter, extra virgin olive oil, cod liver oil, and coconut oil.
4.Wear a bra for less than 12 hours per day. It can decrease breast cancer risk by half.
5.Eat lots of raw fruits and veggies.
6.Save your liver- less alcohol, medications, and toxins in general.
7.Eat as many anticancer foods as possible: kale, beets, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, garlic, onions, and leeks.
8.Get your vitamin D naturally. Sunlight is best, then cod liver oil.
9.Eat organic as much as possible. More nutrition, no pesticides, herbicides, artificial fertilizers, or injected hormones.
10. Do drink clean water, not tap water. Reverse osmosis is the easiest to get.
11. Use Olive oil- liberally, extra-virgin, and not “PURE”.
12. Use Saturated fats: butter, coconut oil, and lard. They are stable and good for
you, and support hormone production. This is a really hard one for many
people to accept. Think about this. As people have eaten less saturated fat
over the last 50 years, cancer and heart disease rates are worse.
13. Avoid Hydrogenated oils: They block good hormone production.
14. Use Omega- 3 fatty acids: fish, flax, green leafy veggies and walnuts. They
keep inflammation down and are a good source of fats.
15. Avoid Omega- 6 fatty acids: safflower, sunflower, and other vegetable oils.
They go rancid easily.
16. Avoid Milk with RBGH (recombinant bovine growth hormone).
-U. of Illinois toxicologist Samual Epstein, M.D. “All women, from conception to death, will now be exposed to an additional breast cancer risk due to milk from cows treated with RBGH”.
17. Avoid estrogen hormones: They directly cause cancer. A 2002 large federal
study revealed that hormone medications were causing breast cancer, heart
disease and other problems. Within months, millions of women stopped taking
estrogen and progestin medications. In 2003, breast cancer rates dropped
dramatically for the first time in a long time…hmmm.
18. Take Cruciferous Complete by Standard Process. Every woman should take this daily. It is easy and cheap.
Without a lot of detail, two easy solutions for women whose hormones are already a little wacky
1. Use Ovex-P from Standard Process to help feed the overall hormone system.
2. Use Chaste Tree from Mediherb as a natural hormone balancer.
3. Magnesium lactate also works very well if a woman has cramps
Now does that work in all cases, no, but a lot of them do get help that easily. Some however, are significantly more difficult.
All of these are from Standard Process. If you need help just email. If you need supplements just email docaltman [at] gmail [dot] com or call our web based order line and just leave a message, 612-BE-GREAT (612-234-7328.
