Chemical Preservative Found in 18 of 20 Breast Cancer Tumor Tissues Sampled

We have known for some time, with the evidence continuing to mount, that many man-made chemicals found in our environment are also found in our bodies. Many of these chemicals are carcinogenic. The unknowns include how much chemical accumulation will cause cancer and what is the effect of small amounts of hundreds of chemicals accumulating in our body. It is also very difficult to "prove" direct cause of effect, i.e.; chemical = a specific cancer in a person. The reference for the study mentioned above appeared in the Journal of Applied Toxicology vol.24, p.5. It referenced the presence of preservatives used in personal care products, cosmetics and some foods in the tumor tissue itself. Did this chemical preservative cause the cancer? That cannot be determined with scientific certainty but there are several points to be made. What other toxic chemicals may have been present providing additional carcinogenic effects? Only one chemical was tested for in the tumor tissue. From my viewpoint we would all be less likely to develop cancer if we had fewer toxins in our bodies.

The human body as well as the bodies of animals, fish and fowl deposit toxins, as a protective mechanism, in adipose tissue, that is to say fat tissue. The breast is primarily adipose tissue. The nursing infant will ingest chemicals from his/her mother during lactation and these chemicals, including pesticides, have been shown in animal studies to damage endocrine, reproductive and nervous systems.

Texas Tech University researchers found the rocket fuel perchlorate in samples of breast milk nationwide. The Environmental Working Group found traces of 287 chemicals in the umbilical cord blood of 10 infants they tested. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) in a study of 2,500 Americans in 2003 found all of the 116 man-made pollutants being investigated in the blood of these volunteers.

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a chemical found in many plastic products including baby bottles and other bottles in wide use and in personal care products. BPA disrupts hormone function. One in five American four year olds is obese. Overweight girls had significantly higher levels of phthalates (BPA type chemicals) in their body compared to the general population of children.

Metabolic syndrome, low testosterone levels in men, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, neuro-developmental problems, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia and many more chronic health problems are tied to the presence of these chemicals in the bodies of victims of these diseases. We sincerely hope more physicians will start to address these problems in their medical practices and offices. There are treatment programs to help reduce the levels in the body and your lifestyle choices can insure you reduce exposure. It is an urgent health issue.

It Might Be The Drugs...

You have aches and pains and you go to the doc and he says you have fibromyalgia and should take a psyche drug.  When that “treatment” does not work well but gives you more side effects and problems he recommends you see someone because you are now depressed having felt ill for so long.  You “see someone” and they give you another psyche drug and a pain killer.  Now you are often dizzy and feel unstable and you are still in pain but now you have a bigger problem because you are taking addictive drugs.  Sound familiar?
This is malpractice.  Really is, no matter how common.  So start here.  What is fibromyalgia?  Look it up.  Fibro means of, or relating or characterized by fibers.  Myalgia means pain in a muscle or group of muscles.  You have a diagnosis that is just a description of the problem you already knew you had. You have pain in the fibers, muscles.   You went to doctor because you had unsolvable, indescribable pain and he tells you you are in pain.  Is that meaningful?  Do you want to know why?  How will the drugs treat the cause of the pain since he never investigated what might be causing the pain.  Were you checked for Lyme disease?  Did you have a thyroid or other hormone evaluation?  Are you usually dehydrated or deficient in minerals?   Did you discuss your old injuries?   Did he refer you to a physical therapist or chiropractor?  Did you get the idea you would be on medication the rest of your life?  Do you realize he may just be giving you the treatment in “the guidelines” for your symptoms?  Do you realize these very same drugs are known to cause suicide and homicidal ideation?  If you are taking a cocktail of drugs no doctor on the face of the earth can predict what might happen when you mix two together yet it is the primary stock and trade of the medical care you find in most offices in the US.

The US is 4.5% of the world population yet we take 90% of the world’s stimulants, 63% of the world’s anti psychotics, 51% of the world’s antidepressants.  We spend more on disease care than most countries yet rank lower than most developed nations in health outcomes.  Could it be that drugs are not the answer to what ails us?  Could it be that drug based treatments are making us worse, not better? 

I want to live in in a society where most of us feel good so the crabbiness and ill will dies down.  I want to live in a society where people are at peace pursuing their business and personal goals and winning.  I want to live in a society where mass murders do not occur because people are drug free and too busy and happy to contemplate such things.
