Confused by a recent study published by Stanford University that concluded (erroneously) that organic food is not really better for you???? Bottom line…the study is good, the conclusion really cannot be supported. To read a truly intelligent discussion about how to understand the study, I would like to refer you to this very clear explanation by my esteemed colleague and health writer Johnny Bowden. Here is a link to his blog post titled The Organic Food Lie
A recent study by Joseph Sparano, M.D at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine found
Obesity May Become the Leading Cause of Breast Cancer Deaths. A recent study finds
“that obesity at diagnosis of breast cancer is associated with about a 30 percent higher risk of recurrence and a nearly 50 percent higher risk of death.”
This recipe contains 3 super cancer fighting foods: Kale rich in sulphoranes, cranberries, rich in antioxidants and onions rich in organic sulfur and quercitin. Additionally this recipe contains miso (made from fermented soy beans) providing…
In an article I wrote for the Huffington Post, Dr. Chilkov iscussed the dangers of breast implants, including a destructive and painful auto-immune disease, polymyositis, a severe and damaging muscle disease. The disease can spread, attacking and weakening muscles, not only on the chest wall but all over the body leading to severe pain, weakness and debilitation. We received this touching email from a woman in Peru, grateful that we had provided information that led to her relief.
Researchers agree that walnut rich diets suppress the growth and development of breast tumors and suggest that adding walnuts to a healthy diet may reduce the risk of breast cancer as well as colorectal cancer, both of which are two of the most prevalent cancers in women.
Research continues to reinforce the link between breast cancer and diet, particularly the importance of keeping your blood sugar in the low normal ranges. Higher levels of blood sugar and blood insulin are linked to higher incidence of breast cancers. This becomes more important as you age because most women develop some “insulin resistance” in which blood sugar starts to creep higher with advancing years as your cells become less sensitive to blood sugar regulating hormones. Post menopausal women should make efforts to reduce the intake of sweets and starches. This advice also applies to younger women who will benefit by implementing healthy eating habits early in life. It’s really very easy to accomplish.
Probiotics, the healthy bacteria found in yoghurt protect the lining of the digestive tract from damage due to radiation therapy. When healthy bacteria are taken BEFORE radiation therapy, there is actually less damage to the delicate lining of the intestines, less side effects for cancer patients.
The blackened areas on charred and grilled flesh foods (meat, poultry, fish) are a source of carcinogenic chemicals. These chemical directly damage DNA, our genetic material, initiate mutations that can lead to the development of cancer. Think before you eat! The longer meat is cooked, the more dangerous it becomes.
UCLA Study discovers How to Kill Cancer Cells: Starve them of Sugar and they start to die. Conversely, patients with diabetes, pre-diabetes, metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance..conditions of persistent high blood sugar suffer higher rates of cancer. Botton Line: Sugary blood feeds cancer cells.
Women need to be vigilant about symptoms they may be experiencing. Many types of gynecologic cancer produce symptoms early enough for them to be successfully treated. When the symptoms are ignored, the delay in treatment can prove to be fatal. Ladies, listen to your bodies! If you are experiencing something abnormal for you, see your doctor. Chances are the symptoms aren’t cancer related, but it’s better to be safe.
