Not Just Women - Everyone at Risk from Radiation

My last post talked about the dangers of mammograms - that too frequent testing can lead to breast cancer.

Well, a few days after learning that, I read another report. This time it's about CT Scans.

While they can be a valuable tool for diagnosing an illness, they're being over used. And, when over used, they can cause cancer.

Read more on the cancer threat from CT Scans...

Have Women Been Duped?

If you read the report I found from Newsmax this morning, you just might decide that yes, for many years now, women have been duped.

That wouldn't be so bad if it was just about the money that doctors and hospitals have been raking in by scaring women into having regular mammograms. But it isn't just about the money - it's about putting women at an increased risk for breast cancer.

Please read this Blaylock report and think about it. This is way beyond scary.

Nutty news and a possible cure for migraine headaches

Just in case you haven't been to my new blog site, I thought I'd let you know that there are some article there you might not want to miss.

One is about walnuts - and the new research indicating that they just might prevent breast cancer.

The other is about steam... and how some folks are finding relief from chronic migraine headaches by steaming 3 or 4 times a day. Time consuming, but a lot less time consuming that being out of commission for days at a time.

Breast pain - it could be arthritis

According to a recent report, breast pain affects as many as 7 in 10 women at some point in their lives - being most common in premenopausal women.

And of course, pain generates fear. Breast cancer becomes foremost in a woman's mind. The fact is, pain rarely signifies breast cancer. Often it is the result of arthritis that has developed in the intercoastal spaces, and the pain simply radiates into the breast.

Of course worried women should have an exam and tests necessary to rule out cancer, but in the meantime, discomfort may be relieved with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory over-the-counter drugs, evening primrose, vitamin E, or hot and cold compresses.

Fear and panic could be the very things that weaken your system and allow disease to take a foothold, and according to the Law of Attraction, continual thoughts of disease can bring it to you. So if you're worried, have the tests, set your mind at ease, and banish those thoughts!
