Breast Cancer - Why I Detox
Posted on May 5, 2008
When it comes to oncology, there is no other area more controversial than the relationship between diet and cancer. While everyone would like to believe that what you eat substantially affects your likelihood of developing cancer, or that a particular diet can cure cancer, there is little evidence to prove the effect that your diet has.
Reputable sources agree that there is not a diet that cures cancer outright; however there is very strong evidence that what you eat and what weight loss detox supplements you take can prevent you from contracting cancer.
In a Nurses Healthy Study, 1,982 women ho had developed breast cancer were followed for 13 years. Over 1,200 of these women had cancer that had not spread, or metastasized. The survival rates of women whose cancer does spread has a much lower survival rate, about 21% versus 85% for those whose cancer has not spread.
The foods that these women ate consisted largely of poultry and fish, which contain protein and Omega-3 fatty acids. These women had a significantly lower risk of death when compared to those women who did not consume as much. Further, those women who consumed large amounts of hydrogenated oils also had a higher risk of death. A weight loss detox supplement such as Omega Science is ideal in maintaining a healthy immune system, heart, skin, brain and eyes. This supplement provides a variety of nutrients recommended by the American Heart Association including DHA, EPA, and Omega-3 fatty acids. Omega Science insures that women are consuming nutrients vital in reducing the spread of cancer as well.
In another study by the National Cancer Institute, more than 2,400 people, 975 of who had breast cancer and consumed a low fat diet for 5 years. The remaining 1,462 consumed great amounts of fat. The low fat groups experienced a 42% reduction in the recurrence of their cancer.
When you compare foods, such as fruits and vegetables, it is easier to see how they are helpful in the prevention of breast cancer. These foods contain high levels of antioxidants, which fight off free radicals. Studies show that free radicals are the main components behind the development of breast cancer and other cancers. Free radicals in the blood stream are harmful to cells, but antioxidants reduce them by combining with the free radicals and neutralizing them.
Many people do not consume enough foods that contain antioxidants, so a weight loss detox supplement that includes them is vital in the diet. Antioxidant Science helps the body in its fight against free radicals. Additionally, it fights aging, supports detox and promotes alertness. This supplement mixes into an organic energy drink that contains 5 servings of fruits and vegetables vital to preventing cancer.
However, when you look at fat studies, it is difficult to see which foods are helpful. For instance, theories suggest that high estrogen levels correlate with a higher risk for breast cancer and fat stores estrogen. Therefore, if you lower the fat you lower the risk. At the same time, there is a flawed conclusion involving fat. Many believe that eating fat makes you fat, when this is not necessarily the case. It is not eating fat that causes body fat; it is eating more calories that are then turned into body fat that causes you to gain body fat. Additionally, a weight loss detox supplement, such as Weight Science, can assist you in your fight to lose weight and prevent hormone imbalances. Weight Science supports fitness and weight loss by controlling hunger, burning calories and assists in carb digestion. Despite the fact that evidence in this area is inconclusive, there is one thing that many health experts readily agree to and that is a healthy diet and lifestyle are wise choices in the prevention of breast cancer.
Part of a healthy lifestyle includes regular healthy detox and the supplementing the diet with weight loss detox supplements. To ensure that our body can defend itself against the cancer causing pollutants in the environment, it is important to take a supplement such as Probiotic Science. This supplement is designed to defend against the stressors in the environment and supports healthy cholesterol levels. It also reduces physical stress so that your gut is not inflamed and your body is able to fight back.
Because toxins are also a cause of breast cancer in women, it’s important that you combine Liver Detox as a part of your healthy diet. Liver Detox contains Milk-Thistle and hepatoprotective amino acids and herbs. These combine to remove daily toxins and ensure a natural balance while maintaining liver health.
All of these supplements are available from Martha’s Vineyard Holistic Retreat. Here you will find information on weight loss detox supplements as well as the importance of a regular detox in not only maintaining a healthy lifestyle, but also preventing cancer caused by the toxins that can be found in our environment as well as in our food.

Mesothelioma is an occupationsl disease. Exposure to asbestos at the workplace is the single most important risk factor for developing mesothelioma. In the era when safety measures were often deficient, workers were constantly exposed to asbestos fibers and many of them developed the disease. Mesothelioma develops some 40-60 years after exposure and is thus common in the senior citizens who have worked in places known to have asbestos in the ambient environment. Compensations and lawsuits are common and are justified where there were gross violations in safety measures. The manufacturers and even distributors knew for decades that asbestos was hazardous… Continue reading
If you do your research, you’ll find that the information given still points to the “I don’t know, but here are the risk factors” lame explanation. What a lot of you know what! Sometimes I wonder if the people who write these things really think it through.
Here’s what I mean… “most women who develop breast cancer have no risk factors other than simply being a woman and getting older (especially being over 50). Talk to your doctor about your risk… blah, blah, blah.
Wouldn’t a better explanation be… “most women who develop breast cancer have no risk factors other than simply… Continue reading
Since most women today are quite aware of breast cancer and self testing, there are still many who only have a general knowledge of the symptoms of breast cancer. Knowing what to look for when suspecting you might have breast cancer, may save your life!
So let’s begin with what most women have become accustomed to doing, that is checking for lumps in their breast and the armpits. However, keep in mind that lumps in the breast does not necessarily mean you have breast cancer. Actually, they’re very common especially during menstruation, but doesn’t mean you have breast cancer.
Most often breast… Continue reading
