Racist medicine: Breast cancer industry exploits black women for profit while censoring solutions

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
Keeping cancer alive and well is a matter of survival for the cancer industry which is now focused entirely on generating profits, not preventing cancer," Adams charges. Additional details are revealed in Adams' special report, Breast Cancer Deception, which is available now at: www.NewsTarget.com/Report_Breast_Cancer_Deception_0.html The report is available free of charge, and Adams earns no money from any of the numerous anti-cancer product recommendations made in the report. Permission has been granted to readers to redistribute the report to those who desperately need the information.

The aloe vera miracle: A natural medicine for cancer, cholesterol, diabetes, inflammation, IBS, and other health conditions

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
A complete discussion of the fraud in modern cancer treatments would require another article entirely, but the short version is that the cancer industry has no interest whatsoever in actually curing or preventing cancer and, instead, generates windfall profits through ongoing cancer treatments that only harm or kill patients. Chemotherapy, radiation and surgery for cancer are largely medical frauds, and mammography is actually an insidious recruiting system that scares women into unnecessary treatments for cancers they often don't even have.

Food Synergy: Unleash Hundreds of Powerful Healing Food Combinations to Fight Disease and Live Well

Elaine Magee

And most of us over the age of 40 are very concerned about preventing cancer, stroke, and heart disease as we grow older. Well, food synergy is about getting the biggest health bang for your buck by pairing various foods and nutrients in meals and snacks. Think of it this way: Have you ever eaten a meal that was high in fiber and contained a sensible serving of protein and found that you actually ate less than usual but still felt satisfied? Have you ever noticed that when you include lots of calcium- and vitamin D-rich foods in your diet, your PMS symptoms seem to vanish?

Vitamin D Recommendation Missing From Breast Cancer Task Force Report on Black Women

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
These people have a responsibility to know the basics when it comes to preventing cancer with nutrition, and when they remain utterly ignorant of these simple concepts, they post a dire risk to public health. Anyone foolish enough to follow their advice will only end up a victim of chemotherapy, radiation or useless cancer surgeries. And why do I get so riled up about this topic? Because black women are needlessly dying of a disease that's simple to prevent, that's why!

The Green Tea Book

Green tea extract also offers the promise of preventing cancer by inhibiting the activation of carcinogens. A study published in the journal Food & Chemical Toxicology found that rats administered the equivalent of a human dose of green tea had a lower risk of cancer because "the anticarcinogenic effect of green tea facilitated the metabolism of chemical carcinogens into inactive, readily excretable products."6 Mutagens are a broad range of compounds that cause genetic mutations; these mutations often instigate the initiation stage of cancer.

Canadian Cancer Society announces national program to prevent cancer using vitamin D

To learn more, click here to see my previous article on the cancer industry and vitamin D. The U.S. government has no interested in protecting its citizens from disease. Rather, the government actually conspires with pharmaceutical companies and non-profit disease groups to keep the American public in a state of chronic disease through nutritional deficiencies, exposure to toxic chemicals and side effects of pharmaceuticals. And it's working! The U.S.

Both appear to work equally well in immune-system enhancement and in preventing cancer. An excellent source is a garlic-extract-enhanced selenium supplement, which supplies the extra benefits of garlic's powerful cancer-inhibiting, antibacterial and antiviral phytochemicals. The usual dose is 100-200 ug a day. Doses above 400 ug a day are potentially toxic. Omega-3 Fatty Acids A study reported in the journal, Nutrition, in 1990 described the significant immune-enhancing effects of omega-3 fatty acids.
The Cancer Patient in the Hospital Fiber The American diet is notoriously low in fiber, a substance which plays several important roles in preventing cancer. Higher fiber intake increases stool bulk, shortens the time food and digestive products stay in the colon, and helps remove various digestive toxins. Vegetables and fruits are excellent sources of fiber. Red beet fiber in particular has been shown to lower bowel cancer risk.
The Cancer Connection Most regulatory agencies responsible for public safety cite preventing cancer and lowering risk as the major criteria in limiting exposure to potentially toxic substances. In general, wide margins of safety are adopted for safe doses and toxic or cancer-causing doses. The differential recognizes wide variances in human sensitivity to various cancer-causing agents, and also takes into consideration the problem of accumulation and long-term exposure to known toxins.

Mastering Leptin: The Leptin Diet, Solving Obesity and Preventing Disease, Second Edition

Was it causing cancer or preventing cancer? Was it causing heart disease or preventing heart disease? Was it causing hormonal problems or was it the problem itself? Was it helping pregnancy or causing infertility? Or did it not matter one way or the other? The complexity of the contradictions was overwhelmingly interesting and intriguing. Thus began a journey that will forever change the way we view health. In a sense, it felt as if we had struck gold. Everything began to come together, like a complex puzzle falling into place.

Both sulforaphane and broccoli deserve special consideration in the context of any strategy aimed at preventing cancer through diet. This interest is justified by results obtained over the last decade indicating that sulforaphane greatly accelerates the body's ability to flush out toxic substances linked to the development of cancer. Far from being an isolated phenomenon, the increase in detoxifying ability due to sulforaphane sharply reduces the occurrence, the number, and the size of mammary tumours caused by certain carcinogenic substances in rats or mice.

Meanwhile, the GST gene codes for several types of glutathiones-transferases, enzymes that play important roles in preventing cancer. Glutathione-S-transferases function as antioxidants that protect against free-radical damage, and they also aid the body's breakdown of hazardous chemicals. However, researchers have estimated that half of white and about one-third of African Americans in the United States have defective versions of the GST gene. In one study, researchers found that the GST gene was absent in four out of five women with gliomas, a type of brain cancer.

One way that IGF-1 may promote cancer is by reducing programmed cell death (apoptosis) in tumor cells. IGF-1 also inhibits the ability of various anti-cancer drugs to kill cultured human breast cancer cells.13 Rat pups fed IGF-I in milk increased the growth of their brains and livers.14 And IGF-1 boosted the expression of the prion protein gene in rat cells, raising "unresolved questions on the possible effects of increased IGF-1 levels on susceptibility to bovine (BSE) and human prion disease (CJD).

CHEK2 is involved in recognizing and repairing DNA damage and preventing cancer. However, mutations in the CHEK2 gene have been identified in 4.2 percent of women diagnosed with breast cancer and who also had a strong family predisposition of developing the disease. While the CHEK2 mutation modestly increases the risk of breast cancer in women, men with the mutated gene have a tenfold greater risk of developing breast cancer. Again, the vast majority of breast-cancer cases have not been associated with any specific type of genetic mutation or defect.

It does so by protecting healthy cells from free-radical damage, helping to detoxify potential cancer-causing substances, and preventing cancer cells from multiplying. HOWTO SELECT AND STORE When shopping for walnuts, one can purchase them shelled or unshelled, purchased in bulk or prepackaged. When deciding, the unshelled walnuts should feel heavy for their size, not appear rubbery or shriveled. Shelled walnuts should not be cracked, pierced, or stained to ensure they are not moldy.

What's In Your Milk?: An Exposé of Industry and Government Cover-Up on the Dangers of the Genetically Engineered (rBGH) Milk You're Drinking

The authors stressed that "elevated levels of IGF-1 in the circulation are associated with increased risks for several common cancers—(and) the importance of implementing dietary interventions to reduce IGF levels with the goal of preventing cancer." However, the authors made no reference to and appeared unaware of avoidable cancer risks from consumption of rBGH milk contaminated with high levels of bioactive IGF-1 (see Table at end of chapter). Epstein, S.S.
In conclusion, Yu and Rohan emphasized "the feasibility and validity of implementing dietary interventions to reduce IGF levels with the goal of preventing cancer." However, the authors appear unaware of the fact that, since 1984, most of the nation's milk supply has been contaminated with excess IGF levels resulting from the injection of cows with recombinant bovine growth hormone (rBGH) to increase milk yields (3). Moreover, a substantial proportion of IGF in milk from rBGH-injected cows is in a more bioactive unbound protein-free form than in IGF in milk from untreated cows (4).

This biological activity can be extraordinarily helpful (in preventing cancer, for example), and the beneficial effects of these phytochemicals occurs in concert with the full spectrum of nutrients found in each plant. In other words, you can't isolate one phytochemical and expect it to have the health benefits of the whole plant. Studies on lycopene, for example, show it to be of limited value against prostate cancer when used in isolation, but when the entire tomato is consumed, prostate cancer risks plummet.

Recent studies show that bioflavonoids also may be a big factor in preventing cancer and many other diseases. In addition, certain substances can block the absorption and effects of vitamins. For example, the absorption of vitamin C is greatly reduced by antibiotic drugs, so a person taking antibiotics requires a higher than normal intake of this vitamin. SYNTHETIC VERSUS NATURAL Ideally, all of us would get all of the nutrients we need for optimal health from fresh, healthful foods. In reality, however, this is often difficult, if not impossible.

According to her findings, mango's water-soluble portion was about ten times as effective in preventing cancer cell formation as its carotenes. Compounds in the aqueous portion of the mango include not only water-soluble nutrients, such as vitamin C, but also valuable flavonoid compounds, which appear to contribute to the mango's anticancer effect. Furthermore, there is human evidence that demonstrates that mangoes can help fight cancer.

Other nutrient-rich green vegetables, like kale and broccoli, are also good food choices. in preventing cancer. and other cancers. The punch comes from curcumin, the active low-calorie vegetable has ultra high cancer-fighting nutrients. Researchers say it prevents cancer the spice that gives curry powder its yellow color. The antioxidant power of oregano, dill, thyme, rosemary, and other herbs helps fight many cancers. It's best to use fresh since they are more potent than dried. Whole grains.

What happened to keeping one's breasts healthy so that you don't have to cut anything out for the sake of preventing cancer down the road? What happened to that kind of thinking? I mean, isn't medicine based on, "First, do no harm"? Isn't that the opening line of the Hippocratic Oath? Aren't doctors supposed to be helping patients, not slicing them up? "Doctor, my arm hurts." "Don't worry, we can remove it." Is that what medicine has come to?

Of course, selenium is a very important mineral for preventing Alzheimer's disease, preventing cancer and many other disorders. It's also a great anti-viral mineral. The point of this is that, when we read in a book that Kale is a great source of calcium, or that broccoli is a good source of selenium, we really have to imagine an asterisk behind that statement. Kale may be a good source of calcium if there was calcium present in the soil in which it was grown. Broccoli may be a good source of selenium, but only if selenium was present in the soil.

It plays a role in preventing cancer, especially liver cancer, and may actually target carcinogens, make them water-soluble, and then help escort them from the body. It may also have an antiaging effect. The rate at which we age is directly correlated with reduced concentrations of glutathione in cellular fluids; as we grow older, glutathione levels drop, resulting in a decreased ability to deactivate free radicals. Glutathione can be taken in supplement form.
Saw palmetto aids in preventing cancer and, for men, in improving benign (noncancerous) prostate enlargement. It inhibits the production of dihydrotestosterone, a hormone that contributes to enlargement of the prostate. Q Wild yam contains natural steroids that have a rejuvenating effect. Steroids are what help exercise to melt off more weight and build muscle. This hormone is found in the human body as dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). Take larger amounts—2,400 mg daily, dropping to 1,600 mg daily—for two weeks, then stop for two weeks.

Much more than a simple hot beverage, green tea has become over the centuries a highly integral part of life and customs in Asian countries; from a gastronomic perspective, and as an element of hospitality and ritual, yes, but also as an essential substance in the prevention and treatment of disease.

In other words, when it comes to preventing cancer, the cancer industry is silent. Why should they say anything, anyway? If they teach women how to prevent breast cancer, they lose customers. Besides, the scheme they're running right now is working brilliantly. They maximize revenues and profits by preventing prevention and waiting for women to get cancer, then treating them with high-profit pharmaceuticals, radiation and surgical procedures.
