Hormones play an important role in beast cancer.

Hormones play an important role in beast cancer. Higher levels of estrogen are associated with a greater risk of breast cancer. Women who have children later in life also appear to have an elevated risk of breast cancer.

Breast cancer can occur in two different places in the breast, the lobules (the milk-producing tissue), and the ducts that carry the milk to the nipple. The different types of breast cancer are:
Ductal carsinoma in situ - This is an early cancer in the milk ducts and is the most easy of all cancers of the breast to treat.

Invasive ductal carcinoma - This is cancer which started in the milk ducts, but has spread to other areas.

Lobular carcinoma in situ - Technically this is not considered a cancer, but rather a pre-cancerous condition. Women with this condition have an increased risk of developing cancer and need regular checkups.

Invasive lobular carcinoma - This starts in the lobules and spreads. It is difficult to diagnose because it does not always form a lump and does not always show up in mammograms. In breast cancer there are usually no symptoms initially, a lump being the first telltale sign. This lump may occur in or near the breast or in or near the underarm. The breast may change size or shape. There may be discharge from the nipple. There may also be change in the texture of the breast, becoming scaly, dimpled (orange peel), or puckered.

lymph cancer natural cure

This was a search term on my site today, folks find out about vitamin C powder and lymph cleanses. I know a gal who went to the "Cancer Doctor" one day and they said she had cancer in her lymphs, a few days later and another test there was none. This oculd have been she was just congested the first time. She has breast cancer so they keep her scared.

The thing is when my mom had breast cancer, they told here that when they were in doing her surgery, another words removing her breast, that at this time they would test a few of her lymph glands and if they were cancerous then they would remove all her lymph glands.

I, of course was horrified, they will decide without even asking you, the patient, and they will remove all lymph glands. This will cause your arm to swell and create major life long problems.

To me that is like taking a car to the dump because it needs an oil change. Removing the Lymph glands that are working as hard as they can to fight your cancer seems like the dumbest thing they could possibly do. But they do it, the Lady Cancer Doctor told me that is what she would do if it were her, talk about being brainwashed.

The concept of removing body parts to remove cancer makes No Sense to me. I would think that you have to go for the root cause or cancer will spread to body part after body part with no end in sight. I guess the Cancer doctors think that they can just keep removing ....

There are many wonderful cleanses you can do for your lymph glands, start there. And let your body at least try and heal itself. I am Not a Doctor, thank god. It seems most doctors are stripped of all morals, and are brainwashed into thinking that a human body has to have a prescription given by them to heal, even if they know it is not true.

CBS News Clip on the Breast Cancer Vaccine - Supposed Breaking News


A Few Insights on this “Experimenal Breast Cancer Vaccine” News Clip from last Thursday’s CBS News. The News Clip talked of a Vaccine for Breast Cancer, they spoke of this being a new “experimental” therapy to cure or at least prolong the survival rate of Breast Cancer. This sounds to me like “Dendritic Cell Therapy” which has been around for awhile, though main stream medicine has “harassed” those using this Cure successful for over a decade.
Those attempting to cure you naturally or using innovative means have long been kept down and shut up by the Medical Cartel, why ? Apparantly it has never been about you being healthy but instead about controlling you - keeping you down and making plenty of money in the mean time.

One wonders how money could possibly be worth your life, I mean it is only paper Really, however, beyond the piece paper, being in control of your life and your decisions seems to be very important to them. I want you to know more and to be able to make informed decisions on your own.

These courageous doctors have been making peoples lives better by healing their “total body”, stimulating their own immune system to not only cure their cancer but also heal many other ailments and health issues that they have. They do this by Using your Own Immune system to target the cancerous cells in your body. This can be done to target a specific tumor or a cancer, and can even be done in order to stimulate your immune system to Fix, Go After all that ails you, your body will simply know what to do.
One Doctor I know of that does this type of therapy by Creating a Vaccine from your own cells, has been doing it successfully for10 years. The CBS report acts like it is new, it is NOT New. It has just been kept secret by the medical establishment. They keep secrets by the FDA and their thug like authority to "Jail People" who have and give the answers for your to be well.

Dendritic Cell Therapy, which uses a Vaccine to Heal Cancer and to stimulate your own cells to actually fight the bad guys, is a viable treatment option that really has been in use for quite awhile. So why is Main Stream Media now open to talking about this Vaccine?

From my Understand Dendritic Cell Therapy uses your own cells to formulate a vaccine to heal your cancer. This therapy is supposedly based on the principle of taking the cells from your body re-training these cells and re-entering the cells into your body

The Dendritic Cell therapy can be used to target a cancerous tumor by using cells of that tumor to be taken from your body and the Cells will then be “trained” to fight cancerous cells, all based on your own body, your unique chemical makeup.

http://www.cancersolutions.org/search/label/Dendritic%20Cell%20Therapy

Main Stream Medical is testing this option and talking about it on the news as if it is Some Great New Breast Cancer Vaccine and Preventative, you will hear more about it, so be Cautious and NEVER accept One Source as your Answer. We will talk in later posts on how to know if the information you are finding about Natural Breast Cancer cures is right for you and if it has any truth to it. There is a whole lot of conflicting information online.

Remember For Every website talking about natural cancer cures there is information deliberately put on websites in order to make you think that the cure does not work or can harm you, more on that later.

If Main Stream Medical gets a hold of this Therapy and accepts this as a Viable Cancer though it has been in use a minimum of 10 years and has already been working my fear is that this “cure” will be controlled, changed, not work as well and will cost a whole lot more.

However, with this your medical insurance may then pay for it, while now the medical insurance companies seem to only want you to do what your doctor says or they won’t pay. This way everyone gets paid in the system of getting you healthy. Whether their solution works or not is irrelevant, your pain level and health level is irrelevant. It is all about the numbers, the money, and your Real Health, gets lost in everyone else’s needs and agendas.
Why won't medical insurance Pay for PROVEN natural cures that are easier on your body and easier on your life? It is because Big Business supports Big Business, your Cancer pays a whole lot of wages, and they can charge VERY high prices if a Big insurance company is paying the bills, they are all interwined and your life is paying the Price.

The Message of this Post is though the Main Stream media seems to be talking about a Breast Cancer Vaccine, be cautious there is more then meets the eye. If they are now open to making this information public after all these years, then they must be in a position to Control the Information, Control the Vaccine and how it is administered

They talk about this vaccine maybe being a preventative. I believe this to be true in the aspect of using “Dendritic Cell Therapy” in order to boost your immune system and keep it strong enough to fight off cancer in the first place.
However, if it is specifically targeted you would have to have the breast cancer, the health issue before your cells can be used to make a Vaccine just for you. If you are healthy and you make the vaccine, it is my understand that this would not necessarily work as a preventative.

I am not a Doctor, nor am I attempting to provide medical advice, I am an Alternative Medicine Researcher and I am passionate about your health.

Who will provide this “New” vaccine that has found it’s way into the Main Stream Media, no doubt a Big Pharma Company will be in charge of this. And will they will make Billions, for it works. Prescription drugs, in part are based on herbal remedies but because herbs cannot be “patented” they create their own drugs that they can patent.
I mean the Native Americans cured themself of Cancer, Societies LONG before us cured themselves of all kinds of human health issues. The ground Naturally grows what humans need to be well and yet some dark force uses those herbs mixed with man made filler and patents this cure to then sell it to you.
And these drugs just keep coming. Some have no reall cure in them, they are placebos and others are just to cause more problems so you buy more prescriptions. All based on Profits for Big Pharma Companies. The recent news had a special on the FACT that doctors Give YOU a placebo 50% of the time, so you are Tricked into thinking that they are making you better. The Power of Your Own Thoughts Heals you and they take the Credit and the Paycheck from giving you NOTHING...
These Companies are publicly traded and their whole purpose is making money. This kind of money is based on volume and is not about your health, it is not about your long term wellness or your comfort level with the whole process. Your Body, your life, and your quality of life is just a numbers game to them.
I want you to Be in Charged or Your Own Health, To make your own decisions.

Who is In Charge of Your Breast Cancer Cure ?

11/10/08

Surgery without Consent ?

the Oncologist said that she would test a Lymph Gland, if it had Cancerous Cells then she would Romove all Lymph Glands. I asked, so this happens while the patient is under and you are removing the Cancerous Breast ? Yes, she said. I said so without the Consent of the Patient, without the patient choosing - you simply remove the glands, the patient then takes a risk of Swollen arm for life and not have lymph glands to fight infection. She said that I am talking with you now so that there is consent to remove the glands if they are cancerous...

I have seen a Cancer Patient that had a Lymph Test which included a picking of random glands to test to see if it was Cancerous. The Gland was Cancerouse and then the very next week they were tested again and the gland test came back with NO Cancer detected. So was the gland congested and fighting the bad stuff, what if that test was in surgery and they removed the glands that are there for a purpose.

When you have breast cancer, they used to simply remove the glands and test them later, now they test in surgery and only remove them all if a few cells are cancerous. Your whole body could have cancerous cells. It is said that we all have cancerous cells at all times and that it simply is a matter of being able to fight these cells. We cannot remove all body tissue or we would cease to exist. So Why Not go after cancer everywhere from within, and NOT remove body parts that obviously have a purpose.

Why NOT find out about elements that Kill Cancer, Cancer Eaters and include them in our daily life? If we did this then who would pay the Oncologist's wages? Just like heart disease - we can take liquid arginine and dissovle artery blockages but instead societ excepts heart surgery again and again, excepts stents or foreign elements lodged in their body and then they are on Heart Pills - prescriptions for Life.. and why when L-Arginine will Cure this according to Scientific Research. There are Many Cancer Eaters out there.

Alternative Medicine Options for Breast Cancer Diagnosis



Breast Cancer is VERY Treatable and is Curable...

Whether it be our self, our Spouse, our Family member or a Dear Friend, or that cancer Cloud over us - Cancer affects us All in some way. If our parents had Cancer We worry that we will get Cancer. If we had Cancer we worry that it will come back. Imagine how empowering it would be to not fear cancer and to truly know that the Doctor does not necessarily know best.

Those who diagnose and attempt to treat Breast Cancer oftentimes make us feel powerless and offer no solutions other then Chemo – Surgery – Radiation and in this same token Oncologists tell us that No Diet has ever cured cancer and that there is no need to change our diet. They recommend Swift Action, Immediate Surgery and Push you into Quick Decisions.

Though it took you years to develop Breast Cancer, they make you feel as if a Decision for Treatment must be made today and that Surgery is best scheduled for tomorrow. I feel that you do have time, be it a week or more. You have the right to research this decision – to be informed and you do not have to take one persons word for it.

The Problem with this is, if you don’t do what they say, when you say then insurance and state assistant will threaten with Not Helping you Financially. And in Some places once you are diagnosed with Cancer it is illegal not to get treatment. Shocking – But True. It is only your life up until that moment that someone else has a choice they want to impose on you.

You Do Not have to “Decide Right Now” what you will do. That moment of diagnosis drops us to our knees, more so if it is someone we love rather then our self. It is a moment of loss, of shock, of helpless fear and there to reach out a hand – an answer is the Oncologist and many take this hand with no questions asked.

My Goal is to provide places to go Online and to research your options in the privacy of your own home without friends – family – children – doctors – insurance companies and you and your Partner can make an informed decision with no One Particular Choice or Option having to be Forced Upon You.

Oftentimes we feel as though we are making our own choices but really the guilt that family or community impose or the will of the Doctor who certainly must know best are making these Choices for Us.

There are many who treat their cancer naturally that are very successful at it but those cases are not part of the option the Cancer Doctors Give Folks.

There are some Women I have met that have had stage 4 cancer and have been told they had a month to live, they chose Alternative Cures and 5 years later are still alive.

I have met others who were told they had Breast Cancer 15 years ago and have cured this Cancer by Diet Alone. The Truth is there are lots of stories of women who did not listen to their Oncologist and are alive and well and feeling great.

We are pushed into mammograms to “discover cancer early” yet I have read many reports on the very fact that mammograms causes Breast Cancer.

If we have a Breast Tumor – we Have to Find Out if this Tumor is Cancerous so they tell
us we must have a Biopsy yet a Biopsy could actually spread the cancer into other surrounding tissues.

Though going alternative with Cancer Cures is Highly Controversial and often times thrown aside as not the best choice, I believe it may just be the most humane, long term treatment options out there.
Many that go Alternative with their Cancer Treatment end up doing so because they are told there are no other options. I wish women would choose Alternative First and only go to Traditional Western Medicine cures when there are no other options.

No I am NOT a doctor, nor am I trained in the Medical Field. I have researched Alternative Medicine and Natural Cures for over 20 years. NONE of this information is intended to replace “Qualified” medical Advise.

People who choose Alternative Cancer Cures tend to “Be in the Closet” about it. Odd you would think that friends and family would support your choice to NOT go with traditional treatment and simply want you to Be Well. But they oftentimes criticize these Natural Cures choices and push you into choices that they feel is best.

You would think that they would be open to the research that proves that Alternative Cancer Cures really do work for many. But in that moment, in the thought of losing a loved one – family, oftentimes convinces you to go with Traditional – Western Medicine Cures out of their own fear. When instead, they should respect your Right to Choose your own solutions to breast cancer.

When you are diagnosed with Breast Cancer, there will be so many with an opinion on what you should do to Treat your breast cancer.

Though there will not be a lot of folks to help with taking care of the cause that created the cancer in the first place. And the Oncologist will simply act like it is Routine and for them it is. People in the waiting room crying, questions raised and the same standard answers given. The Victim, I mean the patient is Not encouraged to research any cure or options, instead they are pushed into a quick surgery to Remove the Tumor and set up for Chemo afterwards.

If One Person anywhere in the World Cured themselves of Breast Cancer with Alternative – Natural Cancer Cures then Why Not You?

I have seen Chemo and Radiation burn people, actually turn their skin black and put them through ENORMOUS amounts of pain only to watch them die anyway. I know these options work for some but for me, I would have chose something more peaceful.

My Goal is to provide the information and options needed in that moment when Everybody has an opinion on what you should do that is so surrounding that you cannot make an informed decision on you own. I want you be able to easily search for options, for Cancer Solutions.



Though doctors push you to Act Now, family may guilt trip you into listening to the Cancer Doctors advice, and you are thoroughly confused I want you to know the that it truly is your Decision to Make and No One Else’s.

There is so much that Cancer Doctors, Oncologists Don’t or Won’t Tell you. There is so much that they Refuse to Know or tell you that they know. Many of you reading this will choose chemo, surgery, radiation and the hormone drugs they give you after all this. And I respect that choice as should all others in your life. However, please learn all you can about the many people who have cured cancer without Drugs – Mutilation – Surgery – Chemo and the horrors that often accompany western medicines version of Breast Cancer treatment.

Breast Cancer Will Affect us all somehow, it is seems as though it is inevitable such as getting the flu or something. The more we know the better, more relaxing decision we can make.

There are many who disagree with me. It is sad to me seeing all the folks fighting for a cure when I have seen so many that have been cured naturally. It is a Shocking Control over our lives. The cancer shadow hanging over us does not have to be there. Imagine the Power, in knowing that we can cure cancer, if others have – Yes We Can.


Don’t Let Fear or Family make your decision for you. You have a right to know of all available options and to make your own choices. You do not have to listen to yourCheck in with yourself and make an educated decision that you feel is one hundred percent your choice. Make sure that you believe in the choice you are making because of knowledge and NEVER believe one source. Western Medicine, with Breast Cancer and Many other Diseases, goes after the cure – the cut it out – and does not go after the source or the whole body approach to cancer treatments.

I want to Take The Fear of Breast Cancer Away from all Women by Empowering you All with knowledge. And By showing you that there are others who do treat Breast Cancer Naturally and have survived.

I hope to explore with you gals the many Natural Cancer Cures that are out there with plenty of research, articles, testimonials and information to support you in taking charge of your own health. I will talk to you about topics such as Dendritic Cell Therapy, Cesium, DMSO and Cancer, Oxygen Therapies, Cancer Eaters, Mega-Enzyme Therapies, Thermography in Diagnosis, Juicing, Black Salve – Bloodroot – Cancer Salves, Gerson Therapy, Hoxsey Cures, High Alkaline Therapies, Vitamin D, Goji Berry, Frequencies that Kill Cancer, Light Therapy, Niacin Therapy and really out there topics such as Radon Mines.

I am Extremely passionate about you knowing the Truth about your Health and taking your power back away from those who try and take your choice away. Natural Cancer Cures are Definately Out there and I want you to know about them all.

Dendritic Cell Therapy for Breast Cancer

Initial Award Abstract (1997)In this project, we intend to test whether normal cells from the blood stream of breast cancer patients called dendritic cells have the ability to stimulate immunity against breast cancer.

The dendritic cells are normally present in small numbers in the blood, and stimulate immunity very strongly against viruses, bacteria, cancer cells and other foreign invaders. Scientists have developed a way to grow these cells in large numbers outside the body within a week after removing a sample of blood and exposing the white blood cells to growth factors that encourage the growth of dendritic cells. In this research project, dendritic cells will then be exposed to a synthetic piece of a substance present on breast cancer cells called "CEA" that is present on tumors from two thirds of patients with breast cancer.

Dendritic cells will be grown for a week outside the body and then exposed to a fragment of the "CEA", followed by infusion in large numbers into the veins of patients with breast cancer that has spread widely and cannot be cured with chemotherapy, radiation or surgery.

Increasing doses of the cells will be given to groups of at least three patients with breast cancer in order to find out whether the dendritic cells cause side effects when given twice over a period of two weeks.

Stimulation of the immune system against breast cancer will be measured before and after the dendritic cells are given by removing a sample of blood for analysis in the laboratory and by other tests. Shrinkage of tumor will also be measured.

In this 2 year trial of 24 patients with metastatic breast cancer, we will ask whether patients that receive CEA dendritic cells can increase their immunity against breast cancer without side effects, and whether increased immunity against breast cancer can cause shrinkage of tumors.

The long term goal of this initial study is to find ways to educate the immune system to recognize and destroy breast cancer cells even though the presence of the tumor and the chemotherapy agents used to shrink the breast cancer have caused decreased levels of immunity.

The results of this initial CEA dendritic cell study will determine the course of future studies depending on whether shrinkage of tumor is seen, in which case a follow-up study will be performed to confirm that CEA dendritic cells are effective for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer.

If no tumor shrinkage is seen, but immunity against breast cancer is boosted, then patients will be treated with CEA dendritic cells and then have a blood sample removed to try to grow another type of white blood cell called killer T cells that can be directed against breast cancer.

This use of dendritic cells to stimulate immunity against breast cancer is supported by work showing that in the mouse and in humans, dendritic cells are the strongest stimulators of the immune system. This immunologic approach to breast cancer is an attempt to harness the body’s natural defenses to eliminate tumors by boosting the immune response directed against a substance found on cancer cells.

Final Report (1999)In our proposal, entitled "Peptide pulsed Dendritic Cell Therapy for Breast Cancer," we had two specific aims: the first aim was to perform a clinical trial in which patients whose tumors over had the tumor marker CEA were treated with their own dendritic cells, which are immune stimulating cells from the bloodstream, to which a fragment (a peptide) of the CEA marker protein was added.

The goals of the trial were to determine what side effects the dendritic cell therapy caused and to measure whether tumors shrank after treatment with CEA peptide pulsed dendritic cells. In the second specific aim we wished to measure whether the injection of dendritic cells that were pulsed with the CEA peptide caused a boosting of immunity in patients.

The results of our study are that generation of dendritic cells from patients with breast cancer that have been heavily pre treated with chemotherapy was difficult, with low yields.

The resulting dendritic cells had less of the cell surface molecules than dendritic cells from non-chemotherapy treated patients with metastatic melanoma, for example. We were able to infuse cells in 16 patients, but found that there was no evidence of tumor shrinkage in any patient. Immunologic assays revealed that the CEA peptide pulsed dendritic cells did not result in boosting of immunity in general or specifically directed against the CEA antigen with which the dendritic cells were pulsed.

This information leads us to believe that in a population of breast cancer patients that were heavily pre treated with chemotherapy, the CAP 1 CEA peptide loaded onto dendritic cells was not capable of provoking an immune response and did not cause tumors to shrink. Newer peptides that have been produced synthetically are being developed that bind more strongly to the dendritic cells and may be more capable of causing immune recognition of tumor cells.

In addition, we believe that patients that have not been previously treated with chemotherapy and have minimal disease burden are ideal candidates for dendritic cell treatment in future trials.

Cancer News

Folks Do you Remember when Robin Roberts, had surgery for breast cancer, and begin chemotherapy. She had been diagnosed with breast cancer. Roberts, 46, had surgery August 2007 and returned to work 10 days later.

She had nnounced on July 31 that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer. Roberts, 46, had surgery Aug. 3 and returned to work 10 days later.Roberts, who grew up in Pass Christian, Miss., said after the successful surgery her doctors had determined that chemotherapy would be the most effective form of treatment. That will be followed by radiation treatment.
"I'll work as much as I can," Roberts said. "Part of the reason I am coming forward is in case you tune in and it looks like Kojak is sitting next to Diane (Sawyer), you'll understand why."Roberts thanked viewers, co-workers and guests for their outpouring of well-wishes. She said some viewers even gave tips and ideas for dealing with the treatment.
Today she is in the News braving the catwalk today of Isaac Mizrahi's runway show, live from New York Fashion Week.

Her fellow "Good Morning America" anchors dared Robin to do it. What they didn't know is that Robin would decide to shed her wig.
I honor her bravery, and have the up most of respect but gals you out there taking a path OTHER than what the doctors tell you, I honor you as well. Lets watch this gal, for she is in the media. I hope this Cancer Solution works for her and she will be in my Prayers. However, I am skeptical of the Medical Industry being able to CURE her.

This Post is in Honor of her Walk on the Cat Walk, Google Robin Roberts in the News, there is a lot of great photos and good info on it.

Niacin and Cancer

Niacin deficiency and cancer in women
E. L. Jacobson
Dept. of Clinical Sciences, Markey Cancer Center, University of Kentucky, Lexington 40536-0080.

A new interest in the relationship between niacin and cancer has evolved from the discovery that the principal form of this vitamin, NAD, is consumed as a substrate in ADP-ribose transfer reactions. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, an enzyme activated by DNA strand breaks, is the ADP-ribosyltransferase of greatest interest with regard to effects on the niacin status of cells since its Km for NAD is high, and its activity can deplete NAD. Studies of the consequences of DNA damage in cultured mouse and human cells as a function of niacin status have supported the hypothesis that niacin may be a protective factor that limits carcinogenic events. To test this hypothesis in humans, we used a biochemical method based on the observation that as niacin nutriture decreases, NAD readily declines and NADP remains relatively constant. This has been demonstrated in both fibroblasts and in whole blood from humans. Thus, we use "niacin number," (NAD/NAD+NADP) x 100% from whole blood, as a measure of niacin status. Healthy control subjects showed a mean niacin number of 62.8 +/- 3.0 compared to 64.0 for individuals on a niacin-controlled diet. Analyses of women in the Malmo Diet and Cancer Study showed a mean niacin number of 60.4 with a range of 44 to 75. The distribution of niacin status in this population was nongaussian, with an unpredictably large number of individuals having low values.


Niacin in its niacinamide form may have antioxidant activity. Niacin deficiency may cause DNA damage. Niacin also regulates the p53 gene
, which protects against DNA damage and stops normal cells from becoming cancer cells.

Niacin and Cancer

Niacin, vitamin B-3 has anti-cancer properties and is Extremely helpful in curing cancer. Niacin is one more element for you to explore on your road to a healthier you. Again, I am not attempting to give you medical advice, I am a researcher helping point you in a direction to research and consider.

Niacin is said to counteract the effects of Radiation, Chemicals and Carcinogenic Factors.

Some studies suggest that Niacin is Extremely helpful in Preventing Cancer.

Niacin enhances blood flow.

Some doctors have implemented Niacin into special diets for treating Cancer, these studies indicate that niacin was used in doses of 50 mg 8 to 10 times per day.

Niacin Shows Positive Results in Cancer Research

Current research suggests niacin, or vitamin B3, may play a key role in cancer prevention through its activities in cellular repair. Leading scientists involved in niacin nutrition believe the vitamin shows promise in treating and even preventing cancer.

Myron K. Jacobson, Ph.D., and Elaine Jacobson, Ph.D., researchers at the Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine, Fort Worth, have demonstrated that cells depleted of niacin develop cancer ten times faster than those having sufficient amounts of the vitamin. Diet is a major risk factor, with both beneficial and detrimental components, and niacin is one of the beneficial components, according to the Jacobson. Although the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for the vitamin is 20 milligrams (mg), the optimal amount of niacin in the diet still is undertermined, they said.


Niacin is a water-soluble vitamin, which is also known as nicotinic acid or vitamin B3.
Vitamin B-3 is made in the body from the amino acid tryptophan.

Niacin is Extremely Helpful in Preventing Cancer.

Folks, remember it is Awesome to incorporate anti-cancer foods, vitamins, and minerals into your diet. However, you don’t want to be radical about it or live in fear. If you have ANY pain in your body, its time to get alkaline in and get toxins out. Move around, get Sunlight, and Don’t Fear Cancer.
Niacin is help with Arthritis, Diabetes, Heart Health, Alcoholism, Children’s learning behaviors and much more. Check out the Links Below for More information on Niacin and Other Conditions.

Iodine and Cancer

Iodine and Cancer

Iodine is a Very Important nutrient. Please explore Iodine as you are researching Natural Cancer Cures and Prevention.

The amount of iodine necessary to void diagnosable deficiency is quite small.

Some Dietary Sources of Iodine are: soybeans, cauliflower, peanuts, cauliflower, food from the ocean, radishes, asparagus, carrots, tomatoes, spinach, rhubarb, potatoes, peas, strawberries, mushrooms, lettuce, bananas, cabbage, egg yolk, cod liver oil, kelp tablets ..
and onions.

As with most of our foods these days, our soil lacks nutrients and our foods are lacking in nutrients, Iodine is no exception.

Most of us are deficient in Iodine. Chlorine can cause Iodine Loss.


Potassium Iodine
is reported to be a KEY ingredient in Harry Hoxsey’s Internal Tonic.


Taking Iodine Internally


The internal applications of various iodine solutions have been published and discussed for well over a century.

Iodine is important to the health of your breast.


Molecular Iodine (I2) is the preferred form of iodine for the breast according to Ghent and Eskin, who conducted many of the fundamental research studies on iodine and the breast.

Cancer development has two phases – one controlled by iodine, and the other by thyroid hormone.

Iodine-deficient breast tissues are said to be more susceptible to carcinogen action.

Orally ingested iodine and iodide collects preferrentially in the thyroid. To bypass this route, vaginal must be done to hit those receptors first.

Iodine appears to be required for the breast tissue growth and development.

It presents great potential for its use in research directed toward the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of breast cancer.

Vitamin D and Cancer


Vitamin D and breast cancer
SAN DIEGO, CA.

A report has just appeared in the Journal of Steroid Biochemistry & Molecular Biology by Garland et al that addresses the issue of vitamin D and breast cancer risk with a pooled analysis of studies that determined the vitamin D status from serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) levels. The list of authors includes both well-known vitamin D experts and nutritional epidemiologists. The authors were only able to find two studies that met their requirements for inclusion in their pooled analysis, but together they involved 1760 individuals. Both studies covered a wide range of 25(OH)D levels and exhibited a high level of inverse correlation between breast cancer risk and the serum level of this vitamin D marker. When pooled analysis was carried out, the odds ratios for the lowest to highest quintile of 25(OH)D levels were 1.00, 0.90, 0.70, 0.70 and 0.50, i.e. the highest vitamin D status provided a 50% reduction in risk. The authors present a graph of risk (odds ratio) against serum 25(OH)D levels with an amazing correlation coefficient of 0.94 (a statistical measure of the goodness of fit to the model, in this case a straight line, and 1.00 represents a perfect fit), a correlation coefficient that would please those trained in the physical sciences and in fact a correlation very rarely seen in plots presented in the medical literature.
The authors discuss the level of intake that would accomplish the 50% level of risk reduction. If a person were to start at a serum level of 24 nmol/L (10 ng/mL) it would require supplementation of 4000 IU/day to achieve the required level of 120 nmol/L. This exceeds the current upper limit of 2000 IU/day. However, as they point out, a proposal has been made to raise this limit to 4000 IU/day. Levels of 24 nmol/L are not uncommon among US women in the winter months. An alternative they explore is to take 2000 IU/day orally and make up the balance by judicious sun exposure. They estimate that 12 minutes of sun exposure for 50% of the skin would produce the missing 2000 IU. However, this would not happen in the northern latitudes in the winter months. The authors hammer home their point regarding the importance of vitamin D by calculating that, based on their data, an intake of 4000 IU of vitamin D per day would, in the U.S., prevent over 100,000 cases of breast cancer per year. Intake of 2000 IU/day was estimated to prevent 66,000 cases. In this paper, vitamin D refers to vitamin D3. Garland, C. F. et al. Vitamin D and the Prevention of Breast Cancer; Pooled Analysis.

Olive Oil and Breast Cancer

Olive oil helps combat breast cancer.
There is ample evidence that the diet consumed in Mediterranean countries helps protect women against breast cancer. Now Professor Javier Menendez and his team at Northwestern University in Chicago suggest that olive oil may be the main protector. Dr. Menendez found that oleic acid, the major fatty acid in olive oil, is highly effective in killing the Her2/neu protein, a major factor in the growth of breast cancer tumours. The oil is, as a matter of fact, just as effective as the anticancer drug Herceptin and, when combined with this drug, results in a reduction of 70% in Her2/neu levels (in test tube experiments). Dr. Menendez suggests that olive oil manufacturers should begin to list the total oleic acid content on their products so that consumers can select the best brand for cancer prevention.New Scientist, January 15, 2005, p. 7

Beta-Carotene and Breast Cancer

Beta-carotene and breast cancer
NEW YORK, NY.

Carotenoids, like beta-carotene, are important constituents of fruits and vegetables. Numerous studies have investigated the association between the dietary intake of carotenoids and the risk of breast cancer. Some have found a beneficial effect, others have not. Researchers at the New York University School of Medicine now weigh in with the results of a new study that shows a clear benefit of carotenoids. Their study involved 270 women diagnosed with breast cancer and 270 matched controls (125 pre- and 145 postmenopausal in each group). All the participants had blood samples taken at the beginning of the study in 1985 (at least 6 months and more likely an average of four years prior to the cancer diagnosis). These samples were frozen at minus 80 degrees Celsius until analysis in 1995. The researchers found that women with the lowest levels of carotenoids in their blood serum had twice the incidence of breast cancer than did women with the highest levels (highest quartile). The specific odds ratios were 2.21 for beta-carotene, 2.08 for lutein, 1.68 for beta-cryptoxanthin, and 2.0 for alpha-carotene. The researchers conclude that, “These observations offer evidence that a low intake of carotenoids, through poor diet and/or lack of vitamin supplementation, may be associated with an increased risk of breast cancer.”Toniolo, Paolo, et al.

Omega 3 and Breast Cancer

Omega-3 fatty acids and breast cancer
ROCHESTER, NEW YORK. Dr. William Cave, MD of the University of Rochester School of Medicine presents an overview of the current knowledge regarding the relationship between dietary intake of essential fatty acids and breast cancer. Dr. Cave reviews the experimental evidence (mostly based on animal tests) supporting the contention that omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids promote tumor formation while omega-3 acids retard tumor development. A particularly interesting observation is the finding that rats fed a diet containing 20% coconut oil, butter or tallow had half the number of breast tumors than did rats fed a diet containing equivalent amounts of cottonseed oil, sunflower seed oil or corn oil (all high in omega-6 content). However, when as little as 3% of the coconut oil was replaced by sunflower seed oil the number of tumors increased to equal that obtained with 20% sunflower seed oil alone. This indicates that there is a certain, fairly low, level of omega-6 fatty acids which will lead to increased tumor formation irrespective of the composition of the rest of the diet. Animal experiments have also shown that fish oils are highly effective in preventing the development and progression of breast tumors and can diminish the metastatic spread of breast cancer. Dr. Cave concludes that changes in dietary fat composition can significantly affect breast cancer development and suggests the differences in eisosanoid metabolism induced by the two essential fatty acid families (omega-3 and omega-6) may be an important factor.Cave, William T., Jr. Dietary omega-3 polyunsaturated fats and breast cancer.

What if a Mammogram caused Your Cancer ?

Some Reports suggest that Mammograms give off enough radiation to cause Breast Cancer or to propel cells into cancer like activities. Do your home work folks. The following article suggests that not only is radiation a factor but the mammogram can lead to a biopsy which can cause Cancerous Cells to be released to the rest of your body. In TESTING for Cancer they may very well be Creating the Carcingen that they are looking to take out.


Mammography Madness
By William Campbell Douglass, Jr.

.....American radiologists, with the encouragement of the National Cancer Institute and the American Cancer Society, have spent the last ten years convincing women that they should get a mammogram after the age of forty. We have been urging our female readers not to get mammograms at any age. Our reasoning has been that early treatment with surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy does not prolong life and may actually shorten it. Breast cancer therapy is a failure, but no one wants to own up to it.

Is Soy a Healthy Choice for You ?

Are Soy Foods and Products a healthy diet choice and a good - safe alternative to Hormone Replacement Therapy?

Professor William Helferich has spent a decade evaluating the health effects of isoflavones, a class of plant estrogens present in high concentrations in soy. Much of his work has focused on a single isoflavone, genistein, which occurs in varying concentrations in soy products or ingredients such as tofu, soy protein isolates, soy flour and some estrogenic dietary supplements.

Genistein is of interest because it is the most active of the soy isoflavones, and because it activates estrogen receptors in cells, including some breast tumor cells.

Dozens of studies of the role of human and plant estrogens in breast cancer have yielded seemingly contradictory findings. Some found that feeding genistein to female rats prior to puberty reduced the number of chemically induced mammary tumors. Other studies showed that estradiol, a primary human estrogen, spurs the growth of existing estrogen-dependent breast tumors.

Helferich and colleagues demonstrated that – like estradiol – dietary genistein stimulates the growth of estrogen-responsive tumors. They also found that dietary genistein interferes with treatments, such as tamoxifen, that target estrogen receptors in breast tumors. (About 70 percent of women with breast cancer have estrogen-responsive tumors.)

“The resolution of this paradox may lie in the timing of estrogen administration,” Helferich said. Exposure to genistein, an estrogen, before puberty causes mammary gland differentiation. “A differentiated cell undergoes less proliferation and therefore is less likely to progress through the cancer process,” he said. “However, if the estrogen is administered to an animal after the development of an estrogen-responsive tumor, the growth of this tumor will be stimulated,” he said.

Today Helferich is most concerned about the use of genistein and other isoflavones in supplements sold as “natural” alternatives to hormone-replacement therapy. He notes that midlife women who consume these products perceive them as natural and safe. But women aged 50 and older are also most at risk of developing breast cancer. Helferich is evaluating the biological activity of some of these products, which are available in many forms, do not require a prescription, and in most cases are consumed without the knowledge of their physicians.

Helferich notes that the incidence rate of breast cancer in women aged 50 and over in the U.S. dropped significantly after use of hormone-replacement therapy (HRT) declined in 2002 and 2003. While purified genistein is not as potent as HRT, Helferich said, it still poses a risk to midlife women because the amount consumed is much higher. The labels of many products that contain this and other isoflavones lack vital information about what is actually in their products, he said, and because these are natural products, the consistency from batch to batch is difficult to control.

“Women are participating in an ongoing experiment with an unknown outcome,” he said. “You can’t identify what dose of isoflavones you’re getting.”

But genistein is only one component of soy, Helferich said, and studying its effects in purified form may lead to misleading conclusions about the health consequences of soy in the diet. In fact, studies have shown that foods like soy flour have a very different effect.

“The complex mixture found in soy flour doesn’t make the tumor grow,” Helferich said.
“Whole soy contains a lot of biologically active ingredients, but together they may have multiple effects that can reduce the negative outcomes. When the whole food is consumed you get a very different effect than if you consume the concentrated constituents individually.”
All this research points to a very simple truth, Helferich said: The whole soybean is healthier than many of its individual chemical parts.

Soybeans and Cancer

Can Soy Promote Cancer in Your Body ?
Highly purified soy supplements and foods made with soy that are marketed and Sold in the United States may stimulate the growth of pre-existing estrogen-dependent breast tumors, according to a study done at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
"Soy has been correlated with low rates of breast cancer in Asian populations, but soy foods in Asia are made from minimally processed soybeans or defatted, toasted soy flour, which is quite different from soy products consumed in the U.S.," said William G. Helferich, a professor of food science and human nutrition, in a study presented online May 6 in advance of regular publication by the journal Carcinogenesis.

"Isoflavone-containing products consumed in the U.S. may have lost many of the biologically active components in soy, and these partially purified isoflavone-containing products may not have the same health benefits as whole soy foods," he said.

Soy isoflavone products are marketed as dietary estrogens to women over age 50 as a natural alternative to hormone replacement therapy (HRT), but this is the age group in which most breast cancers occur.

Seventy-five percent of breast cancer cases are diagnosed in women over 50, and the majority of these cases are estrogen-dependent. For these women, Helferich said, consumption of highly processed isoflavone products may pose a risk.

Helferich used an animal model that has been used extensively to evaluate breast cancer therapies such as tamoxifen. "The results of this preclinical investigation are especially relevant to postmenopausal women with estrogen-responsive breast cancers who are looking for alternatives to HRT," he said.

In the study, mice were fed equal concentrations of the soy isoflavone genistein, allowing Helferich to determine the influences that various bioactive soy compounds had on genistein's ability to stimulate estrogen-dependent breast tumor growth. "As bioactive compounds were removed, we observed an increase in estrogen-dependent tumor growth," he said.
If genistein had been the only biologically active compound, all diets would have resulted in similar tumor growth, but that was not the case, he said.

A soy flour and mixed isoflavones diet and a mixed isoflavone diet each contained equal amounts of genistein, but differed in the amount of other bioactive components originally present in the soy flour. Tumors neither grew nor regressed in animals fed these diets. "The minimally processed soy flour used in these diets is more like the soy foods in the Asian diet," Helferich said.

"Dietary soy products that contained isoflavones in more purified forms were associated with greater tumor growth. These products are similar to the materials used in isoflavone-containing dietary supplements, which is how many Americans consume these compounds," he added.
Other researchers contributing to the study were Clinton D. Allred, Kimberly F. Allred, Young H. Ju, Tracy S. Goeppinger, and Daniel R. Doerge.
