Breast Cancer is a very common problem these days. Is it exacerbated
by our lifestyles or by environment or just down to the law of averages,
or is it known about more, due to our knowledge?
Primarily
thought of as a women's complaint it can however affect both men and
woman. Men have breast tissue the same as women do so they are prone to
it as well.
What is the cause of this terrifying illness. No one
knows for sure. We all apparently have the cancer gene in our bodies but
something triggers it and causes it to grow. Most cancers if caught
early enough can be dealt with these days, as medical knowledge and
research have helped to give more understanding of what can be done.
Removal of the cancer and then blasting it with radiation thankfully
seems in most cases to be able to successfully remove it or at least
hold back the spread.
Obviously some forms of cancer can be fatal
but as research and knowledge improve hopefully these will become
treatable in the future.
Breast cancer is thought to sometimes be
hereditary and in some cases women who have had breast cancer previously
in their families have resorted to having their breasts removed in
order to avoid the disease. I think these ladies are extremely brave
both in their thinking and actually going through the operations.
It
is thought that aluminium salts contained mostly in spray on anti
perspirants can be linked as a cause of breast cancer so wouldn't it be
obvious to refrain from using these particular forms of toiletry. There
are alternatives. I know of a particular deodorant which is free from
aluminium salts and actually does the job extremely well. It doesn't
prevent sweating, which is also good, but it does prevent us from
producing the smell.
To help prevent cancer the best thing we can
do is to be as healthy as possible. Eating green leafy vegetables,
particularly broccoli is helpful. Eat only fresh foods which do not have
preservatives. We need to eliminate free radicals and toxins and boost
our immune systems.
One way of doing this is to take a look at the
benefits of Aloe Vera and cancer. It may help as a preventative and aid
in the recovery of breast cancer.
Aloe Vera can be taken as a
drink every day which will help to relieve our body of toxins and also
provide the nutrients and amino acids that our bodies require. It is
also recommended after treatment for cancer to help our bodies fight the
radiation we have endured to rid us of the cancer.By
