Pink Ribbons and Profits

November 3, 2007

Here’s an excerpt from one of my favorite websites, www.newstarget.com, on the big “C” industry and their total disregard for the lives and health of women.  I love pink, but those pink ribbons are a wicked sham…

==========================================

While tens of millions of women are developing undetectable, early-stage breast cancer right now, the cancer industry does nothing. They will not tell these women how to halt the growth of cancer tumors; they will only wait until the cancer becomes large enough to see on a screening test, and then they will scare the women to death with harmful, authoritative medical demands and toss them into chemotherapy — a treatment that causes permanent, irreversible harm to the brain, heart, liver, kidneys and other organs.

Yet even the World Health Organization admits that 70 percent of all cancers can be prevented through simple changes in food and lifestyle. That number is probably conservative, though. My own opinion is that 90 percent of all cancers can be prevented through simple food and lifestyle changes. Yet no one in the cancer industry seems interested in teaching any of these strategies to women. In the cancer industry, there is no incentive to teach women how to avoid breast cancer, because to do so would eliminate a future customer! Billions of dollars in revenue are at stake here, and the cancer industry is banking on the continuation of this disease among the population.

That’s why I started the Education Not Medication program. It is a humble effort to teach women how to prevent their own breast cancer through scientifically-supported natural health strategies that are easy to understand and simple to follow. They include things like eating more broccoli and garlic, getting more natural sunlight on your skin (to generate the anti-cancer nutrient Vitamin D, which has recently been shown to prevent an astonishing 77 percent of ALL cancers!) and avoiding cancer-causing chemicals in manufactured foods (such as sodium nitrite, found in bacon, sausage and virtually all packaged meats). A more detailed list is offered below.


The real answers to breast cancer prevention

Here, for the benefit of women everywhere, is a partial list of the things that cause cancer and things that don’t. You’re not going to find full descriptions and citations here, as that would require an entire book all by itself, but this is a very useful reference list that tells the truth about what causes or prevents cancer in the human body.

18 things that CAUSE cancer: (in no particular order)

  • Smoking cigarettes
  • Mammography radiation - see articles on mammograms
  • Chemotherapy and radiation
  • Perfumes and fragrance products
  • Cosmetics and personal care products - see articles on personal care products
  • Home cleaning products, including laundry detergent, dryer sheets, etc.
  • Drinking non-organic milk or eating non-organic dairy products
  • Hydrogenated oils and trans fatty acids - See Poison In the Food or articles on hydrogenated oils
  • Plastic food containers - includes plastic lining inside food cans
  • Sodium nitrite - found in most processed meats, see articles on sodium nitrite
  • Pesticides, PCBs, chlorine and other chemicals
  • Acrylamides (formed during high-heat food processing such as frying)
  • Watching television / lack of exercise
  • Severe emotional distress or relationship stress
  • Refined sugars / refined grains
  • Dry cleaning chemicals
  • Hair color chemicals
  • Nail polish remover

    I’m gonna make some notes here for anything on these lists that I need to remember…

    ————————————-
    Smoking cigarettes — nope, and rarely around it since I’m quite the hermit :)

    Mammography radiation — nope, no mams for me, never have, never will.

    Chemotherapy and radiation — I’d rather die. Seriously.

    Perfumes and fragrance products — Used to use all the la-ti-da stuff (Giorgio, Ralph Lauren…), but no more. They have natural smell-’em-goodies at the healthfood store…or you can make your own :)

    Cosmetics and personal care products — Almost all of mine are of the natural/alternative variety (get ‘em cheaper online), but still have a few I can’t seem to do without.

    Home cleaning products, including laundry detergent, dryer sheets, etc. — Gawd, what a waste of money, and totally unnecessary detriment to health. Haven’t used these in bunches of years. See my blog on those poisonous “air fresheners,” I think it’s under “Toxic Environment” or see “Dove’s Posts-at-a-Glance”

    Drinking non-organic milk or eating non-organic dairy products — Haven’t done dairy in years BUT I am currently experimenting with organic and raw dairy products. A blogger on here has some very convincing testimony on the topic…and I think the newstarget guy advocates its use as well. Surf for the tag “raw milk”

    Hydrogenated oils and trans fatty acids — none in lotsa years. No, I rarely eat out :) It boggles my mind that people regularly (some all day long) put sh*t in their mouths/bodies prepared by multitudes of total strangers without a clue of all the ingredients (and who knows what else) in what they’re consuming… Astounding how people so casually take their MOST valuable possession — their body. (Okay, granted we have to trust to some degree, but I’ll take my healthfood companies over a snot-nose, couldn’t-care-less kid at MacDonald’s any day.)

    Plastic food containers — I had totally stopped using them, but I have started using them for food storage lately — glass is just way heavy for toting food around, to work and all. But I haven’t used a microwave in almost ten years, so hoping just the cold storage use is okay. No heating in those containers.

    Sodium nitrite - none in lotsa years.

    Pesticides, PCBs, chlorine and other chemicals — I was told several years ago by an alternative practitioner that I’d been poisoned by pesticides at a previous job. That’s the thing, the workplace stuff… I’m extremely sensitive to things that most people aren’t, exhaust fumes, typical household stuff, etc… But I’ve (finally) manifested a great job, and these issues are better, but still not totally acceptable — yet. Workin’ on it :)

    Acrylamides (formed during high-heat food processing such as frying) — If I’m in a restaurant, it’s a blue moon kinda thing :) Same with frying food in my home. Very rare.

    Watching television / lack of exercise — Almost never watch TV, and exercise more than the average bear, but still not enough. Workin’ on it ;)

    Severe emotional distress or relationship stress — Have endured a lot of this in my lifetime, and a huge amount of it in the last few years — but much better in this past year. Always looking for ways to relieve that dreaded stress thing. Yoga is a must, but I have to make myself meditate, even though I realize it too is crucial.

    Refined sugars / refined grains — none in lotsa years.

    Dry cleaning chemicals — don’t do it, not worth it.

    Hair color chemicals — nev-uh

    Nail polish remover — Painted them nails as a kid, but it’s plain stupid to put paint on your nails, they need to breathe.

    ——————–

    Okay, it looks like my areas that need the most attention here are a little in the usage of mainstream cosmetics, convincing my employer to go “green,” … and finding a suh-weet place deep in the woods would be the cure-all, where I could get mega fresh air, lotsa luscious healthy sunshine in private, grow some of that there mint and other herbs, enjoy plenty of peaceful livin’ for de-stressing and I’m good to go, lol Piece-o-cake ;)

    I’ve believed for a while that if nature (or not nature) can cause certain diseases, nature too can mop it up. But of course in the end we’re all meant to die and the idea is simply to have as good and long a life as possible.

    At the same time if we consume/apply/use chemicals, there are instances where chemicals can help us…But then we’re open to the possible chain of side effects.

    Even before research I’ve believed that vitamin D is one of the greatest things that our immune system lacks due to clothes, latitude, pollution, buildings, transport. It’s not a magic bullet, but I do believe it’s a magic shield if you’re adequately loaded with it.

    Thank you for this informative, shocking, and eye opening post. I had no idea so much of this was going on. The part that scares me the most is the part about cosmetics. I have a wide variety of makeup, some don’t have just natural ingredients. I’ll have to look at Strawberry Net and see if there are any natural cosmetics cheap.
