Grateful Food for Thought

To Mamogram or Not To Mamogram for Breast Health

Most women are not aware that a mammogram is not the only screening tool for breast health.   A more important question than what else is there? is, have they been proven to be effective and to be better screening methods?  A quick look into the mammogram shows that there are a number of results that are false positives sending women reeling in fear, tears, so much emotion, asking why me, additional testing and so on which is also very stressful on the body.

If you have cancerous cells or tumors, pushing the breast into as flat a pancake that it can be, can and has dislodged and spread cancer cells which is surely counterproductive to the screening and the results. Plus these cells may be so small they go undetected.

Breast Thermography

The use of Digital Infrared Imaging is based on the principle that metabolic activity and vascular circulation in both pre-cancerous and cancerous tissue and the area surrounding a developing breast cancer is almost always higher than in normal breast
tissue.  Click the above link to read more and for text source. This is one method for early detection.

Breast MRI Screening

What is deemed by many to be the best method for breast cancer screening for early screening or re-screening detection. A drawback to this method is the cost. You're worth it, right!

MRI's are good at finding, pinpointing, they can show if a tumor is cancerous or benign.  They can show soft tissue areas not viewable in mammograms and can also be used to look for signs that cancer may have metastasized from where it started to another part of the body. A once and done approach to breast cancer screening you might say.

MRI images can also help your doctor plan treatment.

Special MRI machines, now available in some hospitals, are designed just for looking inside the breast.  This is called an MRI with dedicated breast coils.

Researching further on your part will enlighten you more allowing you to make an informed decision in your breast health care and have a true sense of peace of mind.


My usual top tips for optimal health are to:







1 breathe deeply to keep your stress low
2 drink half your weight in water, build up to it
3 make simple green juice start at 8 oz build to 96
4 eliminate all white foods, they convert to sugar;
cancer thrives on sugar.

If you have breast or any form of cancer, green juices cleanse and detox your liver and body, (you may pee alot), they feed your cells with the vital nutrition they need within 15 minutes, especially for your mitocondria, your power generators, that create your energy through metabolism. Thank them for your energy boosts. This is why clean nutrient dense juices are vital allowing the nutrients to move across the cell wall.

Do you have delicious healthy juice recipes you'd like to share? Please add them in the comments below.  New juicers will be grateful to receive some easy, tasty juices to start juicing.
