    Take a look at this, from Dr. Mercola regarding toxines in breast tissue...
    99% of Breast Cancer Patients Have Parabens in Their Body

    I believe that iodine is a very important part of the puzzle, but not the only piece when it comes to detoxing.

Unfortunately, I was using the Standard Process Prolamine Iodine which contains only iodine made from corn and no Iodide. So I am already on board with being pizzed at most doctors and this whole "health (aka death) system in this country. I haven't seen any wild conspiracy theories here--you're just telling it like it is. Did you know that Oncologists can actually get a kickback for the chemo drugs they prescribe? Talk about a conflict of interest! What Oncologist would tell a woman to order a $25 bottle of 5% Lugol's when he could pocket thousands of dollars for slicing and burning her breasts?

    I'm 51 and have never had a mammogram. Why? Because radiation causes cancer. Duh. Thermography is the only route I would go if I felt I needed more info about my breasts. I already feel like I dodged a bullet taking even just the iodine for the last 5 years. My thyroid didn't benefit but I have no other female issues like most of my contemporaries. I can't think of any friends who haven't had some type of procedure done already not to mention one friend who died at 32 of breast cancer. And she nursed 3 kids. I think corruption and ignorance runs amok in this twisted greedy country. And thanks for watching over this thread, Grizz, as I haven't seen the person who started it around lately or ever.

    My friend is painting her breast with 5% Lugols by the way. And she's got the 2 sizes of Iodoral ready to take after she slowly increases her dose starting with Lugol's drops. She still has to go to work so she's afraid of detox symptoms being too harsh to function. She's got the ATP Co-factors, magnesium, Vita C, Super Selenium, Vitamin D3 (I ordered that for her too and told her to take 20,000-30,000 IU's each day) & some Celtic Salt in case she needs it for detox issues. I can't think of anything else more promising for her bleak outlook right now.
    @Princess,
    OHHHH MYYYY GAWD I've always suspected kickbacks, but could never get anyone who knows to talk and I could never find any hard evidence. Do you have any evidence to share with us? How do you know this?

    Thank you for your support. The business of this thread is very serious and we must all help each other to restrain the Newbee Eager Beavers.

    We pray for the best for your friend. I have a neighbor friend who was sent home to die in "Home Hospice" by her doctors. She has cancer of the vagina & female organs. She has decided to start on iodine therapy and large doses of Vitamin D3, we praying for the best.

    @jlsaven,
    I don't know what happened to our beloved justaseeker. We all love her and hope she comes back to her many friends here. For some strange reason, she did not like me asking questions about Fibrocystic Breast Disease. Blow ups in message threads are normal and to be expected. Tempers sometimes flare up who knows why. We wish her the very best,
    Grizz

    smgj,
    Many thanks for that MUST READ article ! I immediately filed it into our References.Doc.
    PS) It also has a great section on the dangers of Mamography & why a Thermascan should be used instead.

    I do wonder if iodine can detox those toxic Paraben chemicals? Wonder no more. I found the answer:
    The reason a paraben would be found in breast tissue would be due to pathogens such as bacteria and mycotoxins that are the real cancer culprit! Parabens are large group of organic acids found in nature and they feed off mycotoxins. They are present in mangoes, grenadillas, green tea, cocoa and even strawberries! They serve as natural organic preservatives by consuming the waste material derived from the breakdown of yeasts such as candida albicans. There is no conclusive evidence that parabens can cause cancer. 90% of the parbens that are present in breast tissue come from food sources. The antimicrobial role of parabens is similar to that of iodine. The hormonal activity of a paraben is hardly an estrogen disruptor! Estrogen disruptors are the complex or 16- based estrogens, such as xenestrogens that have a bad reputation. The good guys are the weak estrogens, especially the isoflavones that we call SERMS (selective estrogen receptor modulators) More here:

    AHA ! I finally found confirmation of Dr. Derry's claim that a majority of women suffer from Fibrocystic Breast Disease. . .
    This was like trying to find a needle in the haystack.

    "Research work has shown that iodine deficiency in the thyroid presents as a thyroid goiter (enlargement of the thyroid). In those areas of the world where iodine deficiency is very high, such as in Switzerland and in certain areas of Asia and Africa, there are also higher incidents of thyroid cancer. Iodine is also concentrated by breast tissue, and a lack of iodine in the breasts manifests as fibrocystic breast disease (painful breasts with nodules and cysts and often more symptomatic prior to menstrual periods). 93% of American women have fibrocystic breast disease and the longer this disease exists, the higher the potential risk for development of breast cancer. 20% of all iodine in the human body is stored in the skin, specifically in the sweat glands. Lack of iodine in the sweat glands manifests as dry skin with a decreased ability to sweat. Iodine can also be concentrated in the stomach tissue, and the lack of iodine in the stomach manifests as achlorhydria (lack of digestive acid production). Iodine is used by the stomach cells, also known as parietal cells, to concentrate chloride which is necessary to produce hydrochloric acid (digestive acid). With the prolonged presence of achlorhydria, there is a much higher incidence of stomach cancer. Iodine is concentrated in the lacrymal glands of the eye, and a lack of iodine can cause dry eyes. Iodine can also be concentrated in the parotid and submandibular glands of the mouth, and iodine deficiency here can result in dry mouth. Iodine can be concentrated in the ovaries, and Russian studies done some years ago showed a relationship between iodine deficiency and the presence of cysts in the ovaries. The greater the iodine deficiency, the more ovarian cysts a woman produces. In its extreme form, this condition is known as polycystic ovarian disease."

    My wife Gloria had cysts removed from her breasts and ovaries and yet the doctor did not put her on Iodine tablets. She now has a new doctor.

    WOW ! ! ! 93% of American women have FBD ? And this confirms Dr. Derry's report !

    Now I have to take action. I'm going to ask everyone for help in getting this information into Oprah Winfrey's hands, and on shows like The Doctors & Dr. Oz. And I'm going to find some reputable experts to appear on those shows. We cannot sit on our hands with this kind of actionable information. I'm afraid that only Oprah will have the fearless drive to get this out on her network.
    I will persue the Oprah Winfrey path. Will anyone volunteer to approach the Dr. Oz show & The Doctors?

    The goal is to make sure that every woman in America knows that taking iodine supplements will prevent & cure Fibrocystic Breast Disease. I'll keep everyone posted of my progress here.

    Iodine is a Girl's "Breast" Friend

    How does an iodine deficiency affect breast cancer? Toxins gather into lumps that are acidic and contain microbial infestations. If iodine is not present to neutralise acidity and kill bacteria and other mycotoxins that migrate there, they start to multiply. Cells divide excessively and grow into tumours when iodine is not actively modifying hormonal effects on cell receptors. According to the research of Dr Benjamin Eskin, breast cells that lacked iodine appeared to be more likely to become abnormal, precancerous or cancerous.

    A major source of pathogenic material in breasts comes from micotoxins when there is a deficiency of beneficial gut flora. When a biofilm develops around this microbial bundle of mischief it escapes the vigilance of the immune system. If a breast that contains such a biofilm is exposed to radiation (mammograms or X rays) then strands of DNA are damaged. The estrogen present in fat cells sets off cell proliferation to repair it. If iodine can't be there to control the cell dividing messengers then we get more of those "lumps." Iodine kills cancerous cells without killing off normal cells. Iodine does not weaken your immune system, make you nauseous or cause your hair to fall out. It helps to break down cell proliferating froms of estrogen that accumulate there from sources such as HRT, environmental estrogens (xenestrogens), soya-based products and other phyto estrogens. Is the average case of breast cancer a killer disease or an iodine deficiency?

    Iodine is a built in deodorant. 20% of the iodine we need is used in skin cells. Lack of iodine in the sweat glands manifests as dry skin with a decreased ability to sweat. After a bath or shower we immediately apply a deodorant. Why? Because chlorine removes the iodine in sweat glands. It should be there to control odour from bacteria. It is normal to sweat and extrete metabolic waste substances like urea on the skin. Bacteria grows here very quickly and so, ideally, iodine should control it and maintain the pH balance. Perspiration or should we say sweat, is an excretory process that naturally tips out waste material. If we inhibit prespiration the waste bulids up in lymph tissue under the arms and is as we know, very close to the breasts. Should we use iodine as a deodorant? It's pretty obvious. An iodine-based cream deodorant helps to solve iodine deficiencies at the scene of the crime and it is easily absorbed for futher applications within breast tissue.

    An iodine deficiency is also directly proportionate to the presence and amount of cysts in the ovaries. In its extreme form, this condition is known as polycystic ovarian disease. Fibrocystic breast disease (painful breasts with nodules and cysts) is another iodine deficiency that responds very well to iodine treatment. Doctor Jonathan Wright witnessed a colleague of his using iodine to treat ladies who were suffering from fibrocystic breast disease at a medical conference. The iodine was applied to their vaginal mucosa. Within 30 minutes they were free from most of the pain and swelling. A few weeks later their breasts became normal after daily iodine supplementation. Iodine is easily absorbed by the skin and mucous membranes or it can be taken in supplement form. For convenience you can place a few drops of Lugol's iodine onto a brewer's yeast tablet. You can make yourself a supply of these and take one or two a day. A lady who did this was delighted to see her large, lumpy and swollem breasts return to normal and her fears of having cancer were unfounded. Taking more vitamin B6 thereafter decreased her premenstural breast discomfort.

    This article is GREAT ! Much more here:

    An iodine based underarm deodorant? That sounds exciting. I am starting an experiment today. I have misting spray bottles set up with distilled water and iodine for my asthma inhaler testing. I'll use one of them as an experimental underarm deodorant. I put 10 drops of 5% Lugols into a 2 ounce misting bottle for the underarm deodorant test. Results of testing next week. Stay tuned,

    "Most oncologists don't make their money by treating patients, but by selling cancer drugs. In fact, according to the Journal of the American Medical Association, as much as 75% of the average oncologist's earnings come from selling chemotherapy drugs in his or her office -- and at a substantially marked-up price.

    Pharmaceutical companies not only hire charismatic people to charm doctors, exaggerate drug benefits and underplay side effects, but they also pay oncologists kickbacks to push their drugs. For example, AstraZeneca, Inc. had to pay $280 million in civil penalties and $63 million in criminal penalties to the federal government after it paid kickbacks to doctors for promoting its prostate cancer drug."

    Exposing the fraud and mythology of conventional cancer treatments (The whole article is informative)


    "The Chemotherapy Concession

    Unlike other doctors, medical oncologists (doctors who prescribe chemotherapy) can profit directly from prescribing certain drugs. Oncologists can purchase chemotherapy at lower prices than the amounts that the insurance company pays them and then pocket the difference. This mark-up, which can be as high as 86%, is called the chemotherapy concession. The Health Affairs study revealed that this type of reimbursement prompts some oncologists to use more expensive drugs with better mark-ups for the doctor. For example, the study found that for breast cancer patients, a one-dollar increase in a physician's reimbursement resulted in the use of chemo drugs that cost $23 more. The authors said, "Although reimbursement seems to have little effect on the primary decision to administer palliative chemotherapy to patients with advanced solid tumors, it appears to affect the choice of drugs used."

    Why This Hurts Patients

    The Chemotherapy Concession can harm patients in at least three different ways: 1) it creates a potential conflict of interest; 2) it may expose patients to more experimental drugs; 3) it may deplete a patient's insurance benefits (i.e. drug coverage)."

    "Did you know that cancer doctors are allowed to profit from the sale of chemotherapy drugs? It is totally restricted and exclusive for oncologists. I don't know of any other group of doctors who are allowed to profit from the sale of drugs.

    Think about this. A significant amount of revenue for oncologists comes from the profit they make from selling the chemotherapy drugs. Do you think that is why chemotherapy is so widely used by oncologists? Is it "All about the money?"

    Do you think oncologists might be tempted to give you the drug that they're going to make the most profit from? I like to have the faith that my doctor has my best interest at heart. Unfortunately, the money incentives, does something to destroy my faith."

    Harlow,

    Welcome aboard our group. Are you also taking the required supplements here?
    https://docs.google.com/document/d/1...h.lg8x0a4ju5rg

    And if you have detox symptoms please do your Salt Water Flush as described here:
    https://docs.google.com/document/d/1...h.hb5bjzalmp1o

    Can I assume you are taking Lugols 2% iodine? 1 drop every other day might drive too many toxins out of your body for your liver & kidneys to handle. If you develop detox symptoms consider drinking 1 ounce of the water per day (seal the rest to prevent evaporation) for 1 week, then 2 ounces for a week, etc, and slowly titrate up to 1 drop a day over the course of a month or two.

    Read our references doc for more

    All the best to you,
    Grizz
