How Breast Cancer Cells Grow & Strive

Cancer cells need nutrients to accelerate their growth and for them to remain active. New blood vessels are formed, several remain open, and inactive vessels come alive as they are provided nutrients which keep them striving.

Cancer begins in cells, the building block of tissues. Tissues make up the organs of the body. Normal cells grow and divide to form new cells as the body needs them. When cells grow old they die and new cells replace them. Sometimes this orderly process goes wrong. New cells form when the body does not need them, and old cells do not die when they should. These extra cells form a mass of tissue that forms a mass or tumor. Tumors can be benign or malignant.

Benign Tumors:
     *are not cancer
     *can be removed & usually don't grow back
     *do not invade tissue around them
     *cells from benign tumors do not spread to other parts of the body

Malignant Tumors:
     *are Cancer
     *may be life threatening & more serious than benign tumors
     *can be removed, may grow back
     *cells from malignant tumors damage nearby tissues and organs
     *can metasize to other parts of the body by breaking off the original tumor and enter the bloodstream and/or lymphatic system and can damage other organs by forming new tumors

Metastasis is the spread of cancer. Most often when breast cancer cells spread they spread to the lymph nodes near the breast. Breast cancer can spread to other parts oft he body. The most places it spreads are the liver, bones, lungs and brain. The newly spread tumor has the same name, not the name of new location of the organ. It becomes metastasis disease or 'distant' disease.

The Daniel Fast

The Daniel is a fast for those who want a healing for themselves or praying/fasting for another person. In the book of Daniel, he refused to eat the King's delicacies and way of indulging of unclean foods and beverages. Daniel proved to the King by being in better health, more fit than his men, mental clarity and balance. Then granted him his diet of personal choice after days of eating and proving and showing him a better way.....eating no flesh or nothing pleasing, no wine or sweets. Starting Jan. 1,2012 I am conducting a Daniel Fast of my own and welcome you to join me into a happy heathy state of being & living way after the fast is over. Starting January 1 I will be total vegan...after being totally meatless for 16 yrs and 90% vegan most of the time I feel it is time for an advanced change. Studies have shown that dairy causes reoccurance of tumors and cancers. With many animals fed hormones, and just the hormones alone from an animal such as estrogen is a set up for destruction of your temple.

Foods accepted during The Daniel Fast. Whole Grains, Vegetgables, Fruits, Fresh  Clean Distilled Water is an optimal choice. Carrot juice, carrot beneficial for tumor and cancer carriers.

Some people have commited to 21 days, I'm aiming for 40 days as I know there is power in 40day fasts! I will be posting daily.

PEACE & LOVE  

BREAST FRIENDLY FOODS

Organic cottage cheese blended smoothly with flax seed oil. Flax seed with out added lignans, organic flax is good. No sugar allowed. Sugar go straight to cancer cells and create chaos. Carrot juice is a cancer fighter, beta carotene/vitamin A. When carrot juice is taken it goes straight to the cancer cells because of the natural sweetness and cells are being destroyed because of the cancer fighting abilities of carrot juice. Consume the juice daily along with exercise, fat loss as a goal, no sugary or dairy products. Drink pure clean water, do yoga, sweat, eat grapes with the seeds. God made all fruits with seeds and the healing properties are increased along with a positive outlook of healing and being happy.

Laugh all day, look at comedies! Stay away negative people, energy, and negative draining environments. Follow your instinct. Eat home cooked meals most of the time. Live in a controlled air circulating environment without fumes, mold, mildew & cluttered. Throw away unused household cleaners,paint,car products, termite sprays, and more to have a toxin free home or work place. Get appliances fixed, have home foundation in tact without cracks or hanging installations, etc. Make sure washing machine & dryer belts are well maintained and not in need of repair. Don't overdo wearing cosmetic jewlry, real jewlry, artificial material clothing. Don't EVER SLEEP WITH ELECTRIC BLANKETS.

One can never be over cautious and one should never over worry. Eat WELL, LOVE, WORKOUT, LOVE, DELEGATE HELP, GET REST, HAVE REGULAR BOWELS MOVEMENTS, DRINK PLENTY OF WATER TO RID BODY OF UNWANTED STUFF. BE BLESSED! BE LOVE! PUT YOU FIRST STARTING TODAY! ;-)

IODINE and BREAST HEALTH & HEALTHY THYROID FUNCTION

Reasearch shows that taking iodine in doses of 6mg-90mg per day eliminates breast pain from fibrocystic breast pain, overall breast pain, increase in feeling healthier & a greater sense of well- being. Iodine decreases the ability of estrogen to adhere to estrogen receptors in the breast. Taken in doses 100 times the RDA(a low & only 100-150mcg per day). Iodines role: prevention and treatment of fibrocystic disease, keep immune system healthy, antiviral & antibacterial, protects mucosal in mouth-vagina-stomach,and PREVENTING AND TREATING CANCER, and used orally to cure malaria.
Iodine Sources: iodine tablets, iodine drops, kelp supplements or sea vegetables.
Taking iodine can actually have you decrease thyroid medication. But add it slowly, while decrease of meds and consult your health care provider.
IODINE DEFICIENCY IS A CAUSE OF BREAST CANCER! The Ductal Cells of the breasts, actually have an iodine pump in them, they actively absorb iodine.

The thyroid - a butterfly-shaped gland located just below the adam's apple is part of the endocrine system and regulates the body's metabolic rate & is an important factor to the function of many/nearly all of the organs in the body.Many woman have thyroid issues due to iodine deficiency and don't know it. Optimal thyroid function and a healthy metabolism go hand and hand.
THYROID DISEASES:
HYPERTHYROID DISEASE; make too much thyroid hormone activity, restlessness, irritability, unexpected weight loss,still have an appetite. Some people have an excess of potassium. Iodine deficient.
HYPOTHYROID DISEASE; lack of thyroid hormone which affects just about all body functions. Weakness, fatigue,constipation,anemia,dry- yellow - pufffy skin, depression,weight gain, mental confusion, sleep disturbances. Some women have NOT these symptoms but do have hypothyroidism. Some women have emotional issues, learned helplessness or not believing they can have their say! Iodine supplementation can/may help.



Informative literature only based on my experience of usage and reasearch. Not intented to cure or diagnose. Consult with your health care provider on all health issues.

This How I knew Something Was Wrong

Last Summer/Spring I noticed my skin changing; I started to get veins everywhere and noticed some were protruding through my skin. I thought it was from taking months off from my working outs and weight training. I also contributed it to being over 40 years old with hormonal changes. But one nice day in September I looked in the mirror and said to myself, "You have a breast tumor!" I was right. It was 2cm in size when I went to my Alternative Medicine doctor- Dr.Noel; in December of 2010. Dr. Ian Noel also confirmed cyst on ovary, heart issues also- with blood flowing issues and vitamin & mineral negative levels in my body. My holistic doctor confirmed it first, then I joined the Womens Cancer Preventin Program in Jan. 2011 because my family would have it no other way dealing with such a serious diagnosis.
In February/March I could feel a change in my left breast and I could see a change, and I told myself the same thing and was right! I went to another appt. to Dr.Ian and he confirmed my left breast cyst/tumor. I also went to a breast specialists in Cockeysville,Maryland who specializes in BREAST THERMOGRAPHY: Dr.Ariane Cometa,MD at The Cometa Wellness Center and she confirmed pathology for right breast tumor that is on the picture above as did Dr. Noel, and a tumor in my left breast also along with heart issues, body inflammation & gum issues www.cometawelnesscenter.com Dr.Cometa findings were equal and more as Dr.Ian's because I had an entire body thermogram. That was in February/March of 2011.
Well the Women's Cancer Prevention Program notified me of the results from my examinations and mammogram. They said I have uterine cancer cells inside and my mammogram was positive for benign phyllodes breast tumor, and they saw something in left breast and want to do a surgical procedure for test results soon. Now I will wait for my appointment in a few days to a week or so or more.
I have and appointment with both Dr. Noel and Dr. Cometa in June 2011. I hope and pray that my alternative therapies from both doctors cure my ailments along with my extreme diet makeover, stressless mindset, only 4 day work week now, and my intense physical fitness endeavors have contributed into a future diagnosis as ALL GONE NO MORE ANYTHING NEGATIVE! So glad that your second appointment with Dr. Cometa; breast thermography follow-up is no cost-YAY! Dr. Noel charges are very affordable from start to on-going!
BE VERY BLESSED & PEACE AND LOVE TO YOU ALL:
Mrs. Chestnut

The Power of Communication

Words are very powerful. They can uplift a dragging soul, to down a high spirited soul to low. Words form to make us able to communicate with one another. Words can also be your creator: what you say you create, live, believe, react to it, and they are an example of your thought process.
Forming words from the heart to create a bond is a powerful act. Communicating and getting an idea across with accomplishment will set a standard of high in ourselves and the need to always think of positive words and to share poitive amomgst one another!
When you reach out to someone in a positive manner with words of comfort the soul is refreshed and refined. With today's technology of texting, emailing, and social media words still have power to uplift or to bring one down. Even a text or email through social media with good intentions will warm one's soul and make them feel special and know that you are not alone!
Reach out and call someone you know are sick, going through physical trauma, has been diagnosed with an illness, or reach inside of yourself to positive thoughts and words and change your brainwaves, your psyche, and physical for the best life and experience you can have! Remember to always think before you approach your body in the mirror, the body will respond along with what you send into the universe only to come back to grace you with those thoughts and words. The responsewill affect the liquid that soothes our insides into a tidal wave of some sort of disorder to the appointed area of hatred or shame. Learn to love the skin you are in and be positive think positive for a positive change and health occurances. Studies have shown the molecular shift in water with positive words changing to sparkly pretty water, to unsparkly with negative words while under a microscope. So remember we are made up of mostly water and let it swish through your insides touching major arteries,bones,lymph fluid, blood, etc with love and great health inducing matter. Think about what matters to you mostly in life and apply positive and loving words & thoughts; watch magic and a great commuinication and understanding of your self and to other's abroad and close! Peace and Love!

Part of My Breast Health Kits: Diet Plans & Juicing Fasts

This is part of my breast health kit. I recieved these from Cometa Wellness Center. Dr. Cometa specializes in Breast Thermography,Full Body Thermography. She is one of my doctors and the best Breast Specialist there is in my book. But then there is my other doctor Dr. Ian Noel I so admire and has been my doctor for over 11years. Dr. Ian Noel/Alternative Healing Consultation in Kinesiology,Ayurvedic Medicine,Herbal Medicine, Homeopathy, Oriental Medicine, and Nutritional Counseling.
For my breasts health as far as supplements my doc's have me take vitamin D3, Cell Guardian, Borage Seed oil, some red drops!, silicea drops, selenium, and I rub healthy breast oil on my breasts. This is what i take but everyone's situation maybe different and may require more, the same, or less! Remember that I have no family history of breast cancer. I am the first to have tumors.
Along with my breast kits I eat a diet of a VEGAN RAW FOODIST. I love my diet but there is alot of planning and reading of labels to make sure it is within my guide lines of what I want each day....for weight loss or just wanting some eye candy for the moment of palette pleasing! ;-)
Also I apply Castor Packs with my heating pad from minutes to sometimes over night if I happen to fall asleep because it is so relaxing! I do clay packs by Queen Afua and the complete package with her 21 day fast and cleansing system. I will start this fast tomorrow, or her 7/7/7 diet of 7 days of juice fasting then 7 days of salads & juicing & fruit; rotating for 7 weeks. I will let you all know though. But Queen Afua does have a web site. I think it is www.queenafua.com you can order off line or a local distributor may have it. In Baltimore City the store is Everyone's Place located on West North Avenue.

Preventive Measures for Body Perfect

Today's medical practices focus more on curing your symptoms and surgery - without any practice of incorporating preventive body disorders and malnutrition prevention. My focus is to inform and circulate easy and highly usable information on young girls & women's body & health disorders prevention.
First and foremost, we as mother's or guardians should implement daily healthy nutritional habits, body knowledge, and self worth to our daughters & all females in our lives. The knowledge of knowing the effects of foods is profound and will take your temple on a much higher level.

So challenge you and your household daily with nutritional choices that will elevate your temple on a higher plane; along with body movement, quality vitamin choices, reduced stress and factors you are on your way to the temple that is rightfully yours.

Vegan Raw Foodism

I have read several books and visited several web sites on vegetarian raw food diets! I have been vegetarian myself for over 15 years and I have done several juice fasts, lent, the Daniel Fast which is veggies and water and raw dieting; which is fruits and veggies uncooked! Several cancer patients have their bodies of cancer in 6 months and less. I personally know one young lady who rid herself of cervical cancer cells in this time frame. Who knows how many times I may have done this to myself; rid my body of cancer cells being consistant with my dietary or spiritual goals. This time I was a bit different and did Weight Watchers last Summer; processed foods and lots of SPLENDA and other toxins. All I know is Iam ready to reach optimal health no cancer at all! Well today is day ONE! I NEED TO LOSE 50 to 60lbs with lean muscle on my 5' 3" frame not fatty weight, for a preventive measure against cancer living off my mind body and soul! Today is day 1 for me and I was just 170 lbs, now after just 3 weeks Iam up in the 180's but not for long. Going down to the 130's to 140 lbs or whatever the Lord see fit for his daughter! Witness my phyllodes breast cancer and fat cells dissolve all away! Come join me! PEACE AND LOVE! THIS IS.... DAY ONE!

My 1st Thermogram

Last Tuesday I had my first thermogram. I must say that I was impressed, comfortable, and well informed of every step that was to come. I got a full body reading; from my toes to my head. It was non- invasive and fully accepted by my nerves. It was done in a temperature controlled room where I filled out a questionnaire of my health of past and present. There was so much literature on breast health. I also purchased a breast health kit for the awareness of breast care by women on a daily basis, that take no significant time from your schedule. The center I received my care is in Linthicum,Maryland. Google for a center in your area, click a link to the best of your health to come! I will blog my results as I get them. Peace.

Mammograms Negatives

Mammograms are breast x-rays. Equivalent to 1000 chest x-rays. A tumor will not cast a significant shadow until quite large. Hard to detect cancer in young women & women with very dense breast. Breast cancer sometimes look like breast tissue appearing white. Radiation is linked to cancer. Get a THERMOGRAM LADIES; ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE YOUNG AND HAVE A FAMILY HISTORY OF CANCER, AND IF YOU ARE CANCER FREE NOW & WANT A SAFE & EFFECTIVE PREVENTIVE TOOL. Be Blessed!

DIOXINS

Dioxins are toxic chemicals that are harmful to our body cells. Dioxin is found in the breast tissue of breast cancer patients. They are found in plastics. Do not put bottled water in your trunk/car/truck. Heat causes dioxin to leak from plastic into water. Also do not heat food in microwaves inside of plastic containers; Corning Ware,Pyrex,glass, ceramic are better. The dioxins leak into your food then your cells...causing breast cancer. Do not freeze plastic water bottles either, dioxin leaks into water also. Sheryl Crow had dioxin in her breast tissue, and was cause of her breast cancer. This information was from Sheryl Crow when she was on the Ellen Show: this information is what her oncologist told her. Also he says to use a stainless steel canteen or glass instead of plastic.

Prevention: MIND/BODY/SOUL & THERMOGRAPHY

Breast self-exams, mammograms, or sonograms are not preventive measures in-a-sense to more favorable measures. Treating yourself graciously,having more loving and supportive relationships with men and women, proper diet & exercise, stopping bad habits - drugs,alcoholism -smoking, and kept follow up appointments are needed! We need to educate women while we walk for cures; the connection of their reproductive system and breasts, and the positive results from eating healthy, family planning, and positive relationships. Have you ever noticed how your cycle may trigger breast tenderness, pain, or cysts? Right! So their is a major connection. There need to be information on the effects of sugar, malnutrition, vitamin deficiency, vegetables, whole grains, flax seed oil, and much more information of  how your body want whole foods, and how you should eliminate all negativity from your life, & eliminate empty/bad/high carb/sugary/salty/ and processed  foods. Of course there are going to bad moments along with the good ones, but women need to know they have a choice in all aspects.

Changing your diet, life style choices, mind-set, will have a positive impact on your body. Your body and all of it's living cells will respond to positive changes quickly. We as women need to also become more in-tuned with our bodies, and stop disregarding pain as getting old, or a heavy cycle as normal, or thinking that a rash or bumps on our breasts are from whatever, but it's main source. Bottom line, anyone with breasts have a risk of breast cancer for none of us are exempt from any thing. Our home and work environmental factors contribute significantly  to our well-being daily also.



Thermogram- EARLY PREVENTION FOR BREAST CANCER, and other things with-in the body. It is non-invasive, and records by using an infra red thermal-imaging camera; documenting heat levels on and in the body's organs, breast tissue. If in a case of abnormality's the patient along her doctor can make proper self-caring measures. Thermograms used as future follow-ups will show the difference from the previous appointment. Also the option of getting a Thermogram is less painful, more accurate, seeks out all of the body inflammation, and abnormalities. The FDA approved the Thermogram back in the early 1980's. For information on Thermograms or to find a center in your area visit the different web-sites on "Breast Thermography".
