Cancer, Vitamin D, Sun, Tanning Beds and More
In a gathering of vitamin D researchers recently held in Toronto, Dr. Cedric Garland delivered a blockbuster announcement: Breast cancer can be virtually "eradicated" by raising vitamin D levels.
Vitamin D is "the cure" for breast cancer that the cancer industry ridiculously claims to be searching for. The cure already exists! But the breast cancer industry simply refuses to acknowledge any "cure" that doesn't involve mammography, chemotherapy or high-profit pharmaceuticals. This is why I personally do not make any monetary donations to the "Race for the Cure, etc." - it is a system that continues to promote toxic drugs and treatments instead of simple, inexpensive prevention.
Vitamin D is finally gaining some of the recognition it deserves as a miraculous anti-cancer nutrient. It is one of the solutions for cancer prevention. It could save hundreds of thousands of lives each year in the U.S. alone.
This is the vitamin that could destroy the cancer industry and save millions of women from the degrading, harmful cancer "treatments" pushed by conventional medicine. No wonder they don't want to talk about it! The cancer industry would prefer to keep women ignorant about this vitamin that could save their breasts and their lives. In most cases (my guesstimate would be 90% of the time) you will not find the medical doctors telling you this information because it does not benefit the healthcare industry financially. Do you know of someone who has died of breast cancer? Don't you wish that they would have known this information? You might even be told by the medical professionals that this is simply 'hogwash'. They may give you a response such as "if it were as simple as that, don't you think that we would be telling you this information???"
You do not see signs posted in their offices that 140,000 people die each and every day from the medicines that we regularly promote to you, do they? Instead the have ads and posters on their walls that promote these toxic drugs.
Following is the entire statement that was released from Dr. Cedric Garland:
Breast cancer is a disease so directly related to vitamin D deficiency that a woman's risk of contracting the disease can be 'virtually eradicated' by elevating her vitamin D status to what vitamin D scientists consider to be natural blood levels.
That's the message vitamin D pioneer Dr. Cedric Garland delivered in Toronto Tuesday as part of the University of Toronto School of Medicine's "Diagnosis and Treatment of Vitamin D Deficiency" conference - the largest gathering of vitamin D researchers in North America this year. More than 170 researchers, public health officials and health practitioners gathered at the UT Faculty club for the landmark event.
Garland's presentation headlined a conference that reviewed many aspects of the emerging vitamin D research field - a booming discipline that has seen more than 3,000 academic papers this calendar year alone, conference organizers said. That makes vitamin D by far the most prolific topic in medicine this year, with work connecting it with risk reduction in two dozen forms of cancer, heart disease, multiple scleroses and many other disorders.
Dr. Reinhold Vieth, Associate Professor in the Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathobiology at University of Toronto, and Director of the Bone and Mineral Laboratory at Mount Sinai Hospital, organized the event in conjunction with Grassroots Health - an international vitamin D advocacy group founded by breast cancer survivor Carole Baggerly.
Baggerly implored the research group to take action and encourage Canadians to learn more about vitamin D and to raise their vitamin D levels.
An estimated 22,700 women were diagnosed with breast cancer in 2009, according to the Canadian Cancer Society's latest figures.
As much as 97 percent of Canadians are vitamin D deficient at some point in the year, according to University of Calgary research - largely due to Canada's northerly latitudes and weak sun exposure. Sunshine is by far the most abundant source of vitamin D - called 'The Sunshine Vitamin' - with fish oil and spirulina as well. Vitamin D supplementation helps raise levels for many.
New recommendations are from 2,000 - 5,000 IU per day unless it is a day where you have 20 minutes of sun exposure (with your skin exposed). I personally take 5,000 IU's per day, even if I do get sun exposure. I give 5,000 IU's to my children as well.
Remember, accordingly to Dr. Russell Blaylock, MD for every mammogram that you get, you increase your chances of getting breast cancer by 3% from the radiation and this is accumulative. In 10 years of recommended mammograms, you have increased your chances of getting breast cancer by 30%!! Again, I really admire this medical doctor because he is dedicated to telling his patients the truth about the risks of medications and the benefits of eating properly and supplements.
Vitamin D is inexpensive. We sell it for $10.00 for 100 gel caps (one gel cap is 5,000 IU) I have put clients on vitamin D that have had chronic infections and flu throughout the winter season. There is so much improvement for clients that have done this. Again, natural health is not about 1 supplement or 1 herb, it is about not being defiant in any of the key nutrients and avoiding toxicity (whether it be from food additives, pharmaceuticals, chemical cleaners, EMF's etc). It is impossible to avoid all types of toxicity, so be sure to be on some sort of regular detoxification program and try not to keep re-exposing yourself to things that are easy to avoid.
Natural health is about getting rid of the bad stuff (toxins) and replacing the missing nutrients so that the body can heal itself.
Studies have shown that 75% of ALL types of cancer can be avoided by proper vitamin D levels in the body.
