Unfortunately, most women have been led to believe that the breast screening is crucial, virtually harmless, and that it is going to save them from an early death of breast cancer. The actual truth, however, portrays a completely different picture.
A study published in the British Medical Journal (December 2011) found that breast cancer screening may cause women harm which is largely due to surgeries, such as lumpectomies and mastectomies.
Another study published in The Lancet Oncology in 2011 showed that women who got the most breast screenings had a higher cumulative incidence of invasive breast cancer over the following six years than the control group who received far less screenings.
MAMMOGRAM RADIATION IS MUCH MORE DAMAGING THAN A CHEST X-RAY
Mammography is a type of breast screening test that uses X-rays in order to spot breast cancer. But the procedure is quite outdated, expensive and dangerous. Additionally, we know that the radiation from X-rays are dangerous, which is why the technician must leave the room before they are taken. Dr. Samuel Epstein, one of the world’s top cancer experts, has stated:“The premenopausal breast is highly sensitive to radiation, each 1 rad exposure increasing breast cancer risk by about 1 percent, with a cumulative 10 percent increased risk for each breast over a decade’s screening.”
BREAST CANCER SCREENINGS CARRY AN UNACCEPTABLY HIGH RATE OF FALSE POSITIVES
Also disturbing, is the fact that mammograms have an extremely high false positive rate, meaning they show cancer where there is not. Several studies showed that 50 of women who get mammograms once a year for 10 years, will have at least one false finding. This leads to aggressive and unnecessary biopsies, radiation, chemotherapy and/or mastectomy.
THE SAFER ALTERNATIVE TO MAMMOGRAM – THERMOGRAPHY
Thermography is a non-invasive and safe screening method that can be used as an alternative to mammograms. It is able to detect areas of heat in the body that can show the areas of inflammation.
A 2008 study out of the American Journal of Surgery found thermography specifically has a 97% sensitivity rating for its ability to discover malignances, sometimes years before a visible tumor has even been formed. That’s true early detection.
DETOX YOUR BODY FROM HARMFUL SUBSTANCES
Fortunately, you can detox your body from toxic and radioactive substances by using foods in your diet such as spirulina.
Spirulina is the best food that removes heavy metals and toxins from the breast tissues. It has the most detoxifying effect on your body.
