Perhaps you could send the following to every woman on your LOVE and LIKE list: CONQUERING BREAST CANCER IN THREE DAYS Today is the 64th day of my hunger strike. An enormous breast cancer controversy is developing between traditional medical practitioners, who benefit from the existing multi-billion dollar yearly breast cancer rip-off, and real science, which has proven that mammography does more damage than good. THE REASON THEY LIE: GOT MONEY? Very rarely does the mainstream press report the existing milk/IGF-I link to breast cancer. Wonder why? Newspapers, magazines, television, and radio all derive revenue from companies extolling the fraudulent virtues of milk and dairy products. Pizza Hut uses three percent of America's yearly milk production. Dannon Yogurt and Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream help pay the rent, utilities, and salaries of those who pretend to bring America the truth in their daily news. HOW MANY WOMEN ACTUALLY HAVE BREAST CANCER? Thousands of chemicals and events have been implicated as being a cause of cancer, but one thing makes it grow once a woman is unfortunate to be so stricken. That key factor happens to be the most powerful growth hormone produced in the human body, insulin-like growth factor-I or IGF-I. The great miracle of nature is that IGF-I is identical between humans and cows. On November 8, 1994, the New York Times reported that breast cancer is actually a very common event. An autopsy study revealed that 39.6% of women between the ages of 40 and 50 have breast cancer. That is horrible news for women and wonderful news for those who make a living performing breast cancer analyses and treatment. The fact of the matter is that most breast cancers are naturally controlled by our miraculous immune systems. Cancers always begin with one cell. Every three months that cancer doubles in size, so that after one year the cancer grows to sixteen cells. Eight years later, a breast cancer becomes a one-million cell tumor, the smallest lump a woman can detect in her breast Cellular examination upon autopsy reveals the common presence of breast cancer, but clinical diagnoses result in only one percent of women in the 40-50 age group being dignosed with breast cancer. The key factor in breast cancer's growth, like pouring gasoline on a fire, is IGF-I. Milk, cheese, yogurt, ice cream---all dairy products are loaded with this powerful growth hormone. A STUDY OF 500,000 WOMEN A new study published in the British medical journal, LANCET, compiled data from 500,000 women since the 1960's and found that mammography is not only an ineffective tool, it might very well be a factor in causing breast cancer. The study found that for every 1,000 women who receive a mammography, one life is saved. On the other hand, a woman having a mammography will have a six hundred percent greater chance of getting breast cancer, by exposing her breasts to a "safe level of radioactivity." Safe level? That's easy for a man to say. If I was a woman, I'd be pretty unhappy about exposing my breasts to once-a-year doses of radioactive poison. Science devises tests to find breast cancer earlier. Is that such a good thing? All adults over the age of 50 have cancer (New York Times, 11/8/94, P C-1). Instead of ingesting the key factor five times each day, IGF-I, shouldn't all women practice the NOTMILK preventive therapy? GENETIC ENGINEERING MAKES A BAD PRODUCT WORSE When cows are treated with Monsanto's genetically engineered bovine growth hormone (rbGH), levels of IGF-I in their milk increase by about 80%. Women who drink milk experience an increase, systemically, of IGF-I in their blood serum by a factor of ten percent. SOLVING THE PROBLEM Today's New York Times (Sunday, January 9, 2000) contains a full-page ad for AVON'S "Breast Cancer 3-Day" event. This is a national effort, and women in America's major cities will be making a collective statement this Fall. In New York, two thousand women will walk 25 miles per day from October 13th-15th, starting at Bear Mountain, New York and ending their march in midtown Manhattan. If you wish to join their protest, call 888-332-9286 or read about breast cancer on their website: http://www.breastcancer3day.org WHAT YOU CAN DO Please contact these people who have great passion and anger. Let them know about milk and IGF-I. Tell them about our hunger strike. March with them. Teach the ignorant about the IGF-I/milk factor. AND SEND TODAY'S NEWSLETTER TO A FRIEND!!!
