MEN! You are not immune to getting breast cancer.

12-29-09 - One of my good clients had had a mammogram that showed some areas of concern. She called me and scheduled a breast drainage session. During the session I told her that everything felt pretty good with exception of an area in each breast about 10 o'clock in the right breast and about 2 o'clock in the left breast (note both of these areas of concern are in the upper outer quadrant). She told me today that sure enough in the right breast around 10 o'clock there was a lump but they think it is benign. She was also told there was a lot of calcification in both breasts. We will be doing more drainage more often to help break up the lump as well as more breast massage to break down the calcification. They think the problem stems from hormone replacement drugs she has been taking. Good news for her!
3-6-10 - A John Hopkins update: Just a small part of an article on cancer dealing with the immune system (lymph system). Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person's lifetime.
When a person's immune system is strong the cancer cells will be destroyed and prevented from multiplying and forming tumors.
LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE IS A MUST!
3-10-10 - I have just heard of a 15 year old girl having breast problems!
Remove the toxins now! Eat alkaline!
3-17-10 - HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY! The Fort Worth Star-Telegram had an article about breast cancer. It says the DFW area is higher in breast cancer rates than any other area in the state. 120 people out of 100,000 will be diagnosed; of that number 23 will die.
Clean out your breasts using this simple method; Get the toxins out!
12-4-10 - BREAST CANCER - It is getting into younger women!
I just found out about a 23 year old that has developed breast cancer.
More than likely from too much estrogen. Why do we insist on eating processed foods? If you don't know what all the ingredients on the "contents" of a particular product are ... it probably is NOT very good for you. Eat what Mother Nature provides. Again, we should be eating 80% alkaline & 20% acidic each day.
6-5-11 - Do you have $420.00 to spend on a breast cancer preventative drug? Today's Fort Worth Star-Telegram had an article on a new breast cancer prevention drug for women who were at higher risk of getting breast cancer. Yes, that is good news but a session on lymphatic drainage would only cost $50.00 a month and would include the lungs, liver, bladder, uterus, AND breasts. Toxins are many times the cause; removing these toxins just makes sense.
6-13-11 - The problem.
Scientific and medical research has shown that our bodies contain between 30,000-50,000 chemicals that our grand parents did not have in their bodies, simply because they weren't invented yet.
These are mostly absorbed through the skin from many pollutants. And due to our outdated and unregulated chemical laws, some of the most threatening and harmful to human health are products we use at home such as modern cleaning products, commercial cosmetics and toiletries. Laundry detergents, fabric softeners and dryer sheets are among the most toxic of these products because everyday people wear its chemical residues on their skin and absorb it directly into their bloodstream.
9-21-11 - SUNSHINE!
For some time now, I have been hearing about getting 15 minutes of morning sun on your bare chest for 15 minutes everyday.
I am now hearing doctors say to get 15 to 20 minutes of morning sun, when the angle of the sun is between 45 and 90 degrees, for 15 to 20 minutes on your entire bare body will give you 20,000 units of vitamin D. That's huge! All of this is for prevention of cancer.
9-24-11 - Interesting therory on breast cancer
One of my female therapist friends shared her thoughts on why women get more breast cancer than men.
She believes after women shave there arm pits and almost immediately apply deodorant the chemicals are absorbed deeper into the newly opened skin. She shaves at night and applies her deodorant the next morning giving the irritated skin a chance to heal before adding product with chemicals.

OTHER USEFUL TIDBITS
Help me out here to:
ban MSG
in our foods.
That nagging ailment you get after eating certain foods just might be a reaction to MSG or another additive food processors put in to
"make it taste better".
My reaction to these additives is Arterial Fibulation or A-FIB.
Others might get migraines or skin break outs.
It is killing us.
Read every label and if it says MSG, please, for your health, don't buy it.
Frito-Lay says they will have all additives out of their foods by 2012.
My hope is every food processor will follow suite and if we stop buying it, they just might.
READ EVERY LABEL.
These additives are toxic.
