Yes, October is breast-cancer awareness month and the American Cancer Society is once again raking in the big bucks!
If the pharmaceutical industry did not have such a strangle hold on the American Medical Assn and the insurance industry, cancer would not be a such a huge for profit business!!
I start to boil when I see NFL football teams wearing the pink stuff! Okay enough of my soapbox and onto some proactive suggestions to prevent breast cancer!
Take this simple urine test to determine your
risk for breast cancer!
Hot flashes do not necessarily mean a woman is lacking estrogen or is premenopausal. Other reasons for hot flashes include low progesterone levels, eating a high sugar and high carbohydrate diet, low thyroid and adrenal function, birth control pills, and inability of the liver to convert and balance hormones.
A study in 2002 on hormone replacement therapy was cut short by 3.5 years because the women in the study were being put at high risk. The Journal of the American Medical Association reported that not only did the study find that HRT (in this case, estrogen plus progestin) significantly increases the risk of coronary heart disease, but it greatly increases breast cancer as well.
A federally funded study in 2008 again revealed that the risk for breast cancer is doubled for those women taking hormone replacement therapy for five years, but increases for women taking HRT for any length of time.
According to the National Centers for Disease Control, coronary heart disease and breast cancer are the two leading causes of death in women in the United States.
Considering these risks, I highly recommend that every woman take a simple urine test which determines the ratio of two hormones, a biological marker of breast cancer risk. It is a reflection of what kind of job the liver is doing converting and balancing estrogens.
