Why ultrasound & NOT always mammo

Dense Breasts:  When a Mammogram Isn't Enough
While mammography is a useful screening tool, it does not
​do the whole job in women dense breasts. Women should understand that dense fibroglandular breast tissue can obscure some breast  masses.  I often use the analogy of looking for a snowball in a field of snow. The snowball (the breast cancer) will blend into the background (the dense breast tissue) making the snowball impossible to see. Mammography detects 98% of breast cancers in a fatty breast, but only 48% of cancers in a dense breast.  In Ms. Lunden's case, her mammogram was read as "clean" or negative; however, because her breast tissue was dense, ultrasound was utilized in order to improve breast cancer detection.  Click for full article 


The role of ultrasound

Picture
Discussion: Ultrasound was shown to be more sensitive than mammogram. Afro-Guyanese were the majority screened. Most persons had ultrasound done with both malignant and benign diseases being discovered with this modality. The malignant cases were more frequently diagnosed at stage II and the average of detection was 33.

Conclusion: Ultrasound is effective and sensitive in the diagnosis of breast cancer. It is also effective in diagnosing benign breast diseases in younger women with dense breast tissue. Ultrasound is cheaper and safer than other imaging modalities for screening and diagnosis. 

WHY SHOP ORGANIC ? 

Picture
​Organic vegetables, fruits and grains are grown without pesticides and herbicides. These chemicals are used in conventional farming to kill pests and weeds. So it may seem obvious that food grown without these chemicals is better for you. But when it comes to reducing your cancer risk, it's not clear that eating organic makes a difference. 


The Vitamin D - Breast cancer story

Can Vitamin D Prevent Breast Cancer?
​Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium, which is essential for good bone health. Vitamin D also helps the immune, muscle, and nervous systems function properly. Most vitamin D is made when an inactive form of the nutrient is activated in your skin when it's exposed to sunlight. Research suggests that women with low levels of vitamin D have a higher risk of breast cancer. Vitamin D may play a role in controlling normal breast cell growth and may be able to stop breast cancer cells from growing. Click here to read more.
 
Doing More for your Breast Health is Smart Prevention. Ultrasound see’s things mammography cannot, particularly in women with Dense Breast.  Adding an Ultrasound to your Breast healthcare regimen, increases detection from approximately 48% to 97%, particularly in women with dense tissue.

why iodine is good & why you're in the right place to learn (microalgae has natural iodine)​

Picture
​Iodine deficiency has been proposed to play a causative role in the development of breast cancer. Dietary iodine has also been previously proposed to play a protective role in breast cancer, to a large degree based on the increased iodine consumption of dietary iodine in Japanese women, having and exceptionally low incidence of breast cancer.  For more information, read the document below.
