You Don't Have to be Afraid of Cancer Anymore

Without estrogen, the bones begin to wither as calcium is lost and mental depression may set in. It's important for women and men to maintain small amounts of estrogen or estrogen-like molecules in their system throughout life. The exact effect of phytoestrogens on breast cancer cells and tumors depends upon their concentration. At low concentrations they have been shown to possibly stimulate growth whereas at higher concentrations they inhibit tumor growth.

The entry for Hormone Replacement Therapy includes: womb cancer; breast tenderness/enlargement; undesirable weight gain/loss; elevated blood pressure; mental depression; reduced carbohydrate and glucose tolerance; hair loss; vaginal candidacies (thrush); jaundice; abdominal cramps; vomiting; cystitis-like syndrome. Menopausal symptoms may begin to seem mild when compared with any of these side effects. HRT Fails to Prevent Bone Loss Many older women take HRT to prevent osteoporosis - a disease characterized by a loss of minerals from bone tissue.

Carcinogenesis 12: 2041-45, 1991] The complete blockage of estrogen production or estrogen entry into cells during the post-menopausal years is counterproductive because it trades the risk of breast and uterine cancer for the onset of osteoporosis and mental depression. Hormonal harmony must be pursued by more reliable means than what is currently practiced today. Melatonin and breast cancer Melatonin is a hormone, produced in the pineal gland at the base of the brain, during sleep. Close your eyes and a signal is sent to produce melatonin.
The widespread use of aromatase inhibitor drugs would likely cause rates of osteoporosis and mental depression to skyrocket. As for Herceptin, a new drug which had been heralded as a cure, the best that can be said about its efficacy and safety for the treatment of early breast cancer is that the available evidence is insufficient to make reliable judgments. It is profoundly misleading to suggest, even rhetorically, that the published data may be indicative of a cure for breast cancer.
They don't reduce mortality rates and they may accelerate bone loss and mental depression. þ This pushes American women into the unguided use of phytoestrogens, plant, seeds, beans and herbs that have estrogen-like molecules. But are they any safer or more effective? þ Why does crushed whole flaxseed exhibit unusual health benefits for the heart, kidneys, bones, prostate and breast tissues? What is it that whole flaxseeds provide that other herbal phytoestrogens do not? By what process does flaxseed produce such incredible health benefits?
TRT is purportedly beneficial for the treatment of erectile dysfunction, decreased sex drive, mental depression, anemia, and age-related bone and muscle loss. Some 1.75 million prescriptions for testosterone products were written in 2002 representing $400 million in sales. [Associated Press, Dec.

Yet as Evelyn Pringle, investigative reporter, lets us know, "Pharma will stop at nothing when it comes to making money off children. On April 25, 2005, the Ohio Columbus Dispatch reported an investigation of state Medicaid records that found 18 newborn to 3 years-old babies in Ohio had been prescribed antipsychotic drugs in July 2004.

Nutrition Cancer 19: 1-10, 1993] This is such a low-fat diet it would leave most women yearning for fatty foods and push them into such low circulating hormone levels that they would experience mental depression. The most recent study did not find that dietary fat was related to the invasiveness of breast cancer.

Similarly, illnesses that originate in the body also cause mental depression and stress. Furthermore, ayurvedic and Chinese practitioners have identified certain adaptogens as having psychological and spiritual benefits, including Asian ginseng, holy basil, licorice, reishi, and shatavari (see chapter 6). STRIVING FOR HEALTH The World Health Organization defines health as "a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely absence of disease or infirmity." Emphasis may be placed on well-being.

I've written many articles about the dangers of soft drinks, including articles that looked at the link between soft drink consumption and diabetes, loss of bone density and even mental depression. Apparently the word is getting out and people are changing their habits and actually quitting soft drinks. I'm very pleased to see this and astonished that it's 43.1 percent. I'm glad the number is that high and I hope I can do my part to help make the number higher in the future.

Some of these strategies can help reverse asthma, chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, breast cancer, prostate cancer, cervical cancer, schizophrenia, mental depression, osteoporosis, osteomalacia, obesity, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, immune system dysfunction, chronic pain, arthritis, allergies, Alzheimer's disease, and many other disorders.

Every human being needs to be exposed to natural sunlight on a regular basis; otherwise, you will suffer from vitamin D deficiency diseases, such as prostate cancer, breast cancer, mental depression, osteoporosis, diabetes and so on. Most Americans are chronically deficient in vitamin D, and partly because they're wearing sunscreen and avoiding the sun like the plague. I experienced astaxanthin's internal benefits functions myself, when I was taking this product during my visit to Hawaii.

Why organized medicine wants to outlaw nutrition and turn healers into criminals

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger

You can prevent osteoporosis, schizophrenia, mental depression, and many other diseases and disorders just by getting some natural sunlight. So this is my crazy idea: Let's ban the things that kill people, while supporting the things that improve people's quality of life, keep people healthy, and prevent chronic disease. Now, I know it's a radical idea and it would have terrible side effects, such as plummeting health care costs, increased longevity, increased quality of life and happiness across the entire population.

St. John's Wort proven more effective than antidepressant drugs for treating depression

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
John's Wort in the trial experienced improvements in symptoms of mental depression. Conversely, only 1/3 of those taking the popular antidepressant drug showed such improvements. Not surprisingly, those taking the herb also showed significantly fewer negative side effects compared to those taking the prescription drug. This is a case in which the herb is not only more effective, but also safer; a fact that should not be surprising, since medicinal herbs are typically more effective and significantly safer than prescription drugs. Also, St.

The four steps to getting more vitamin D to prevent cancer, osteoporosis, depression and more

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger

I'm talking about prostate cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, mental depression, osteoporosis and even, to some extent, type 2 diabetes. The interactions between sunlight and body chemistry for these diseases are quite complex, and I'm not going to go into them all here, but let me give you the highlights. Vitamin D is essential for calcium absorption First, you most likely already know the importance of calcium for your health. If you don't have enough calcium circulating through your blood, you're going to have cardiovascular problems and you will probably end up with heart disease.

According to one study, after six months on an elimination diet— meaning avoiding foods, food additives and drugs to which your body is sensitive—FMS patients experienced 50 percent less pain, 30 percent less stiffness, 50 percent more energy, and 40 percent less mental depression. By finding the natural treatment program that works for you, you can reduce FMS and CFS symptoms. Beyond the discussion of the mechanics of fibromyalgia, it seems clear that this condition does not have one simple cause.
John's Wort in the trial experienced improvements in symptoms of mental depression. Conversely, only one-third of those taking the popular antidepressant drug showed such improvements. Not surprisingly, those taking the herb also showed significantly fewer negative side effects compared to those taking the prescription drug. Depression and mental disorders can be prevented and treated with simple healing foods A study published in the February 15, 2005 issue of Biological Psychiatry shows that certain foods are better at treating depression than antidepressant drugs.

Unfortunately, it also has some nasty side effects, including drowsiness, dizziness, mental depression, suicidal thoughts, confusion, fatigue, insomnia, headache, hallucinations, and involuntary muscle movements that may sometimes be irreversible. Not surprisingly, Reglan is not one of our favorite drugs. There is a new prescription heartburn medication that we are quite excited about, though. At the time of this writing it has not been approved for sale in the United States, but it is very popular in Japan and India.

The Seven Laws of Nutrition

These include but are not limited to cancer, diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer's disease, osteoporosis, mental depression, irritable bowel syndrome, attention deficit hyperactive disorder, and many other diseases. You may wonder "How can diet actually prevent and even help reverse these diseases?" It's very simple. There are foods and nutritional strategies that prevent each one of these diseases, and most of these foods are available in every grocery store.
But I am talking about chronic diseases here that afflict adults over time such as cancer, diabetes, heart disease, osteoporosis, mental depression, irritable bowel syndrome, and so on. None of these diseases are caused by you having bad genes. In fact, unless you were born with some kind of radical birth defect, you have the genetic code necessary to be a healthy, vibrant human being. Now, how do I know that? Because you come from a long line of human beings who were quite good at surviving and propagating a genetic map that was very good at surviving and being healthy.

Though no prescription medications specifically treat irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), antidepressant and anti-anxiety drugs may be used for people with mental depression (page 145) or chronic pain (page 338), or for people who have symptoms that worsen during periods of stress. The anticholinergic drug L-hyoscyamine (Levsin, Levbid) may be used to treat colon muscle spasms and abdominal soreness. A common treatment for IBS includes limiting the intake of dairy products and beans, as well as foods containing caffeine, fructose, or sorbitol.

The disorder may appear when the individual first leaves home, or may develop in connection with mental depression, peer pressure to lose weight, sexual temptation, or the discontinuation of oral contraceptives. At the outset, the patient either stops menstruating or simply refuses to eat. In the first case, the patient later stops eating; in the second, her menstrual periods eventually cease. In either case, she may lose weight to the point of life-threatening exhaustion.

Other studies have shown no mental depression or interference with the ability to do tasks such as driving a car. In another study, people with anxiety symptoms given a 70 percent kavalactone extract in the amount of 100 mg three times a day were found after four weeks to have a significant reduction in anxiety symptoms such as feelings of nervousness, heart palpitations, chest pains, headaches, dizziness, and indigestion. And all with no side effects noted.
