And let's not forget about the 300 women in eastern Canada who were misdiagnosed with cancer. Most of the ones who went through the chemo and radiation, are now dead. So sad, when they never had cancer in the first place.

I swore off antiperspirants about 6 months ago. (I'm still learning this healthy stuff!) One of the first things i tried was the mineral rock - tho i had heard negatives about it too, i figured it was a place to start. I began itching, & nothing i did would help. I tried aloe, & vinegar, & tea tree oil, & lavender oil, & i don't remember what. I finally, in desperation, bought diaper rash ointment - zinc oxide. It's Bert's Bees, & the ingredient list is pretty safe. It took care of the itch, & i use a small amount every morning as a deodorant. I let it sink in some & have to be careful putting on my clothes. In my job, i work very closely with people & cannot smell bad. I wasn't sure how it would handle summer heat, but i'm pleased with the results.

Coconut oil as deodorant.

In his book, Coconut Cures , Bruce Fife mentions the benefits of rubbing one teaspoon of coconut oil over your entire body each morning after showering.

I've been taking his advice. It does not work as an antiperspirant, but it is very effective as a deodorant, and is good for your skin as well.

Taking drugs to PREVENT cancer? Hmmm.....I'm less than convinced.

I strongly feel, that our women groups should advocate NO DRUGS AT ALL. They should be promoting preventative everything by living the alternative life, for health.

When I began my short 3 years of menopause, guess what I took? NOTHING. Each time I felt a hot flash coming on I laughed and began to joke around. Believe it or not, the hot flash began to cool off. I also stuck my head in a freezer until my body temperature went back to normal. And in winter, I went out side to cool off.

It works with no side affects. After 3 years, my flashes began to go away. Never suffered from night sweats.

Mother provides, and she is great.

The best way to prevent breast cancer is by eating the correct foods for your nutritional type. And by dealing with negative emotions with EFT.

What they really mean in layman terms---evista is useless.

However, there is always a benefit for some. They probably already have medicine to treat the side effects it will cause when they prescribe it to the healthy women and make them sick---killing two birds with one stone=two times the money. But, how else are some of those dudes inside the FDA (Favor Drug Abusers) ever going to make a decent living with the little-bitty salary they get. They must also protect their investments with the companies they have financial interest in. At least that's what I heard somewhere through the grapevine.
