Breast Cancer
Welcome to breastcancerbook.com. We hope to enlighten you on a few of the facts about how to cope with breast cancer — as a survivor, a family member with a breast cancer survivor or for those currently braving your way through this battle.
One of the most important things we focus on here at breastcancerbook.com is the idea of knowing your family medical history when it comes to cancer. Knowing your family medical history when it comes to breast cancer is not just a good idea — it can save your life.
Your family medical history, or FMH for short, is the pathway to understanding where you came from genetically and therefore where you are headed genetically as you age. Knowing who in your family had or has had breast cancer and how they are related to you gives you a very good statistical idea of what your chances of getting a breast cancer diagnosis in your lifetime are.
If you do not yet have breast cancer but know that several of the women in your family have been diagnosed with it, there are several steps you can take to stay healthy and avoid a diagnosis. There are several very easy ways you can ward off cancer, mostly with diet and exercise, but also with supplements, meditative activities and herbal remedies and elixirs.
Additionally, here at breastcancerbook.com, we focus on the many ways in which a woman in remission — or what we prefer to call a breast cancer survivor — can handle her condition afterwards and continue to grow healthier and healthier as time passes.
One of our most passionate fights here is the one for women’s right to knowledge about alternative methods of treatment and control of breast cancer. We know that there are certain advantages to Western medicine — certainly more so today than ever before. New brachytherapy advances in breast cancer treatment have made it imminently more treatable through radiation and with a tremendously smaller list of side effects. With the use of radioactive seed placement or a bladder placed in or near the tumor with a catheter, radiation can be directly pointed at the tumor and the patient does not have to be hospitalized after treatment. The number of “good” cells harmed is phenomenally lower and the chances for remission are increased exponentially.
In addition to the wonderful advances in Western medicine however, there have also been great leaps and bounds in herbal and Eastern medicine. Using both in concert has proven to be a great way to treat breast cancer for many, many women. Learning which types of food to eat more of and which to avoid, which exercises are best for lowering body fat — which helps to fight breast cancer — and which exercises may not be very beneficial at all will aid you in your treatments — or avoidance altogether of — a breast cancer diagnosis.
Acquainting yourself with the newest in homeopathic methods of cancer treatment will help you in your fight against breast cancer. The newest forms of alternative therapies, such as light therapy, also seem radical and progressivist — until you take a look at the results these new treatments are getting.
