I found this while doing research on Iodine:
American women have been sold a bill of goods on early detection of breast cancer — the old “checkup and a check” routine. The latest propaganda from the American Cancer Society proclaims that self-examination “could save your breast — and save your life.” The ACS is not being honest with women, as even the experts at the ACS agree that the practice of self-examination is worthless.
Pass on the radiation and chemotherapy. Radiation is highly destructive of not only tissues, but the immune system, which then makes you more susceptible to all diseases. It is usually a terrible price to pay for a temporary shrinkage of a tumor.
Action to Take
- Don’t get a mammogram and don’t bother with self-examination.
- Be serious about your diet.
- Take 500 mg of thiamin (B1) twice daily. It does wonders for lumpy breasts and may help prevent breast cancer (I have no proof of that), unnecessary visits to the doctor, and unnecessary surgery.
- Take one drop of Lugol’s solution (iodine) daily in a glass of water. Iodine is excellent for breast health. A few people are allergic to iodine—observe closely for rash after the first dose. An even more effective treatment with Lugol’s solution is to paint the cervix with it. Often the lumps will disappear before the patient leaves the doctor’s office!
- Take flaxseed oil, two capsules twice a day.
- Avoid trans fatty acids in margarine and vegetable shortenings, used in most processed foods.
- If you are a potential mother, remember to breast-feed your babies. Women who breast-feed are much less likely to get breast cancer.
- Get plenty of sunshine. Breast cancer is less frequent in areas where there is ample sunlight unobscured by smog or fog. As added insurance, eat oily fish and take cod liver oil as sources of vitamin D.
- Drink water free of chlorine and fluorine.
- Get plenty of calcium from raw milk and bone broths.
- If you develop a large lump in the breast, do not submit to more surgery than a simple lump removal and do not allow them to cut into the lymph nodes in your arm pit.

Bone mineral density begins to decline with age in men to the point that one in five hip fractures occur in men. Men start out with higher bone density than women. The rise in bone fractures starts about ten years later in men than women.
Women experience accellerated bone loss (osteoporosis) at the time of menopause. Now men do not experience the big drop in hormones as women do. When hormones drop, so does bone density. By the time a women reached 90 years of age, over 32% will experience a hip fracture and 17% of the men will experience one.
Here is a list of risk factors that indicate a likelihood of developing osteoporosis:
Osteoporosis in Men
- Decreased weight
- Low activity level
- Poor dietary calcium intake
- Smoking
- Blond hair (?)
- History of alcoholism
- Chronic bronchitis
- Gastric resection
- Thyroidectomy
- Hemiplegia
- Parkinsonism
- Dementia
- Blindness
- Low testosterone
- Low estradiol
Hypogonadisn the Cause of Osteoporosis in Men
Studies now show that men with low testosterone (in the lowest 25 percent) are two and a half times more likely to have a non-spine fracture compared to men in the top 25% of testosterone levels.

Everyday doctors and pharmaceuticl companies continue to promote the deadly practice of taking estrogen alone, not to mention thay are really talking about synthetic estrogen and not the bioidentical hormone.
Here is the latest propaganda:
Reported June 19, 2008
Estrogen Therapy Depends on Timing
(Ivanhoe Newswire) – A new animal study on estrogen therapy finds it may help the brain, depending on the timing. Researchers found estrogen therapy may limit stroke damage if started shortly after reproductive cycles are over.
Since the Women’s Health Initiative study found long-term therapy with estrogen may increase the risk of heart attack and stroke, many women have been confused over whether to take hormone therapy at menopause. Since then, researchers speculated the timing of estrogen treatment might be important for its effects.
Researchers from Texas A & M Health Science Center compared female mature rats, which were physiologically similar to women going through menopause, to older rats that no longer had reproductive cycles – resembling postmenopausal women. They removed the ovaries of all rats, gave them estrogen replacement therapy (estradiol) for three weeks then induced a stroke. The researchers studied the rats’ brains for tissue damage a week later.
Results show all the rats had sensory and motor damage. But the stroke caused much more tissue damage in the acyclic older females and estrogen treatment actually increased the volume of the brain that was damaged. In the mature adult rats, estrogen therapy seemed to reduce the area of brain damage.
“This study supports the idea that there is a narrow window of time as a woman approaches menopause and immediately afterward where estrogen therapy may provide neuroprotective benefits,” study author, Farida Sohrabji, Ph.D., Texas A & M Health Science Center, was quoted as saying.

With PMDD, however, significant anxiety, depression and hopelessness may occur. In simplest terms, the difference between PMS and PMDD can be likened to the difference between a mild headache and a migraine.
Treatment for PMS depends on the severity of the symptoms. For mild cases, treatment recommendations include diet modifications, like high carbohydrate meals and reducing salt, caffeine and alcohol. A variety of methods for stress reduction and relaxation such as exercise, counseling and stress/behavior management strategies may also help. For severe PMDD, treatment is more aggressive and often requires antidepressants.

Testosterone influences bone density.
If you are contemplating using testosterone from your pharmacy, synthetic or natural, choose natural. But before you begin this regimine, try
Testys TPL with
Testofen,
LJ 100 and
octacosanol. Three proven ingredients that double free testosterone and greatly improve performance, on the field, in the office or at the gym. (We don’t want you to think of Testyx TPL as one of those “pe*&^ pills” you get spammed about all the time, because it isn’t. However, performence and stamina will improve in every ares and we mean every area.)

Check out is site for info on preventing osteoporosis.
With family history and genetics playing a role in the possibility of you contracting osteoporosis, nor a certain cause to name by physicians and scientists, it is not possible to give you guidelines that will 100% prevent you from contracting osteoporosis, however this list of guidelines has been researched and proven to be effective in increasing your chances of resisting this often debilitating disease.

The most abundant mineral found in the body is calcium, of which 99% of it is stored within the bones. Osteoporosis is a disorder of the bones in which there is decalcification of the bone. This loss of minerals from the bones makes it more fragile and prone to fractures. Thus, an osteoporotic patient’s bone fractures more easily as compared to a normal individual.

I have read these sites and they have good thing about his:
Osteoporosis is a disease in which bones are very fragile. Without treatment system for osteoporosis, frequent fractures can occur, often in the hip, spine and wrist. The exact causes of osteoporosis are not known, but many risk factors have been identified.
Women are four times more likely than men to develop osteoporosis. It affects about 55 percent of people older than 50 years.
The fragility of the bones of osteoporosis occurs, because it is a low bone mass and bone tissue has deteriorated.
By: David Cowley
It’s interesting that many people assume that osteoporosis is a women’s disease; it’s true that this condition affects some four times as many women as men, but men too can suffer from this dangerous and even deadly condition.
Osteoporosis is a disease that attacks the integrity of the bone structure. This can lead to bone weakness and eventual fractures. Unfortunately many people don’t know that they have this condition until a bone actually breaks. While this may not sound very dangerous – a broken bone is easily mended, right? In reality the fractures can typically happen in the areas of the back and hip. A hip fracture can be very dangerous and usually requires surgery with a hospital stay, and may interfere with one’s ability to walk without assistance. In severe cases they can be deadly. Someone with osteoporosis needs to take this condition very seriously, and everyone else should be doing everything they can to avoid getting the disease in the first place.
Just as we are coming to grips with women’s hormonal changes along comes “male menopause”. Over the past decade and a half, we have gone from, “Honey, its all in your head”, to realizing menopause is a real healt risk and the symptoms of menopause can have disastrous consequences. This article will not delve into the ravages this can cause on a women’s health, but if you want to read about Osteoporosis Treatments, just follow the link.
Back to Men and their Hormone Imballance:
Men as they age past fourty go down hill, too. Their testosterone levels declin a little every year, so the symptoms creep up until they have full blown andropause. The decline in the male hormone is not nearly as sharp as the drop in estrogen in women. Compare it to walking down a gentle slope rather than droping off a cliff, as women experience.

Research suggests the bone density can be improved in older men that receive testosterone injections, thus preventing and reversing osteoporosis.
Testosterone therapy has shown to improve muscle mass and strength but the administration of the hormone remains controversial because of the potential to increase prostate cancer. (Note that there are now many studies that refute this notion. The book “The Testosterone Syndrome” also says this is not the case. This is especially true if the form of the medication is natural or bio-identical testosterone. When natural hormones are used to raise low levels, reason states there should be no problems. Other wise we’d all contract prostate cancer when the hormone is at its highest – around twenty years old!)
The team studied 13 men, 65 yo 85 years old. The trial lasted five months and the men were given the injections on a weekly basis every other month. Some of the men received a placebo instead of testosterone.
The study found the men that received the testosterone had reduced bone turnover compared to the placebo group. While the researchers are still unsure of the long term effects of treating low testosterone (note that some had mormal levels before the study) they concluded that testosterone treatment stops and reverses osteoporosis.
