Breast Cancer and Diet

Breast Cancer and Diet

You are what you eat and you become what you eat. There is much truth is this: after all, what you eat gives you not only the energy but also the nutrients to support and sustain your health.

According to CNN reporting, Dr. Alison Estabrook, chief of breast surgery at St. Luke's-Roosevelt and director of the Breast Center, breast cancer has much to do with eating habits. Women in the United States have a one in eight chance of developing breast cancer, despite the decline in breast cancer in recent years. According to the report, soy products, kale, sweet potatoes, squash, salmon, haddock, cod, beans, and whole grains are strongly recommended for daily diet for prevention of breast cancer in women.

Unfortunately, not all oncologists embrace the link between nutrition and breast cancer, citing insufficient research evidence. Some of them are blind to the fact that cancer has to do with the holistic balance within the body, and not just the dysfunctional cell multiplication within the body.

According to Chinese medicine, cancer is internal disharmony caused by nutrition and other environmental factors. Its approach to cancer is quite different from that of Western medicine. As an illustration, a patient diagnosed by Western doctors as suffering from stomach cancer might be described differently by Chinese physicians, because the pathogenic conditions of the patient could vary. The patient could be suffering from energy blockage of the spleen meridian, from poisonous heat in the stomach system, or from accumulation of fire at the intermediate level. In addition, Chinese physicians would not be so concerned with the spread of the disease, or the degree of its malignancy. Instead, their focus would be on clearing blockage of the spleen system, eliminating poisonous heat in the stomach system, or dispersing fire at the intermediate level. All these could be achieved through diet and detoxification. Once these pathogenic causes are removed, recovery of the patient will be only a matter of time.

Understandably, to be diagnosed with cancer of any type is a devastating experience. But to prevent and to cure cancer begin with the mind first, and not the body. Read my book: Congratulations. You've Got Cancer! to find out how to harness your mind power to do just that.

In addition to diet, you must also keep your body free from toxins to prevent any type of cancer. The first step is to eliminate the use of drugs as much as possible, especially those over the counter. Decades ago, I used to be taking more than 10 toxic drugs, including corticosteroids, for my autoimmune disease myasthenia gravis. Now, I am completely drug free. You can do it if you empower yourself with knowledge about the dangers of drugs from the pharmaceutical industry.
