Warning; do not get the Gardasil vaccine- tell all your friends! Show them this page- give your Doctor my phone number (I am serious!) if they would like to talk to me. Please read the bottom of this page to find out why Gardasil is a SCAM, and also DANGEROUS. The bottom of this page has further Gardasil vaccine info; read before you make your decision.
PMS; two miracle cures
1. I know an RN who used to take Midol like they were Tic-Tacs©. I told her about evening primrose oil (EPO), which is a rich source of gamma-linolenic-acid (GLA), which is quite helpful for many issues, PMS included. Just about as soon as she started, she stopped her Midols. Really. She was quite pleased, because like many nurses, she had a healthy mistrust of drugs. I prefer the UltraPrim, from Natural Factors, or the liquid by GranoVita. Or loads of hemp oil, which is a considerable source of GLA, if you have around say 2 tablespoons a day.
2. A friend of mine suffered huge pains and cramps to the point of being bedridden almost every time she had her cycle. I talked her into doing a liver/ gall flush, as outlined here on my detox pages. After she finally did the flush, her next period took her by surprise. She had no pre-symptoms, and no pain and no cramps!
Her improvement really surpassed what I was hoping for!
A side effect of doing the liver/ gall flush is a smaller waist. One of my clients reported to me that her waist was visibly drawn in from one flush. Hulda Clark, ND knew what she was doing when she popularised this marvelous cleanse!
Breast Health
Breast health is an area where you can make important contributions towards health, and cancer prevention. First of all, if you are over 35 (or ANY age), do NOT get a mammogram.
Irradiating breast tissue just does not make sense, if we think about it at all! After the thermography listings, read about powerful prevention, for breast health. William Douglass M.D. put it so well, I must quote him here; "Mammograms enjoy an illogical and particularly moronic place in medical science. They may be the only cancer screening PROVEN to give you cancer -- and yet our government continues to spend a fortune each year promoting them." Well put. See also what Dr Joseph Mercola has to say or many other Dr's who go beyond the hype and look at the facts. The only people benefiting from mammograms are the radiologists.
Thermography is proven in mostly European research to be MORE sensitive, and accurate than mammography. And it uses harmless infra-red light, not radiation. You could do it every day (not that you would want or need to), with no harm. There are a number of thermography centres in the Toronto area, and across Canada.
In or near Toronto, some thermography centres are;
The Kulhay Wellness Clinic & Educational Centre, (416) 961-1900
Medtherm, website; medthermonline.com
North York Medical Thermography. (416) 636-2916

Bone health
Bone health is important for both sexes, but is particularly marketed to women to scare them into taking toxic drugs which artificially increase bone mass. Long term studies on bone mass drugs are hardly ever done and almost never talked about because the disturbing finding is that while bone mass goes up on these drugs, after a few years fracture rates stay the same or increase. In other words, the artificial increase in bone mass is not nearly as strong as naturally gained bone mass increases. See the bone health page for how to increase your bone mass naturally at any age!

Care of the Breasts
The breasts are loaded with lymphatic tissue. The lymphatic system is a network of vessels, like blood vessels, but they carry lymph, rather than blood. In the lymphatic vessels, especially the nodes in the vessels, there is a lot of immune activity; lots of white blood cells (immune cells) . If you have ever felt 'swollen glands' around your neck, or under your jaw, you are feeling swollen lymph glands, and likely heightened immune cell activity.
The lymph system thrives on movement! Since there is no heart in the lymphatic system, the lymph moves, when you do. So movement is important, and so is massage. Breast massage is very effective at circulating the lymph through the vessels and nodes in the breasts, where it may otherwise lay stagnant. An RMT that I know that has specialised in therapeutic breast massage is Julie Groulx, though I am unsure where she practices now. You can reach Julie directly at 416.988.7197. Some RMT's are specially trained; ask yours.
Massaging the breasts on your own is definitely healthy, for lymph circulation. Focus especially on the upper, outer parts of each breast, since most lymph nodes and vessels are there. It is no accident that most breast cancers most often form in the upper outer quadrants of the breasts.
BRAS
A few studies have shown a relationship between wearing tight bras, especially for many hours per day (or all day and night), and breast cancer. The relationship can be understood by the fact that a tight bra restricts lymphatic circulation. Especially when worn a lot, or all day. Less lymph circulation means less immune activity, and greater toxin concentration; a lethal combo.
IODINE benefits
Dr Carolyn Demarco, a Naturopath specialising in women's health, described the breasts as overgrown thyroid glands. Her description draws attention to the fact that iodine is very important for breast health, both for cancer prevention, and for FBD (fibrocystic breast disease). FBD refers to a painful, tender condition of the breasts, where there are more lumps than usual, in the breast tissue.
Iodine "has an antioxidant effect on breast cells and acts as an antiproliferative agent whilst also protecting breast cell integrity" as quoted from the Institute of Nutrition, UK (http://www.ion.ac.uk).
A great source of iodine is seaweed. I recommend eating it, rather than taking pills whenever possible, since a useful (high) dose is more likely to be reached that way. Plus, Dulse is a delicious, Canadian product which is widely available in health stores for about $3 a bag. If someone were to insist on seaweed tablets, I would recommend at least 5 per day, of kelp. Seaweed is a vegetable, after all, so one or two pills is not enough. Also available in flake form to sprinkle on food are kelp and nori.
You needn't worry about overdosing on seaweed- there are many examples in Asia of people who consume about 10% of their diet, by weight, in seaweed, with no ill effects. If you have FBD (fibrocystic breast disease), or even menstrual related breast tenderness, try the seaweed, and see.
more on FBD
Coffee is a definite contributor to FBD. Dump it- the improvement will be worth it, if you suffer from pain/ tenderness.
the amazing FLAX seed
Flax is loaded with a very specific fibre called lignans. It literally has hundreds of times more than most other foods of this powerfully cancer preventive substance. Flax (use ground up flax seeds, 2 generous tablespoons daily) contains many other breast protective compounds and benefits overall estrogen balance in the female body. Men can have some flax, but probably less, to minimise potential estrogenicity. Paradoxically, having small amounts of phyto estrogens helps boost testosterone levels in men, but too much phyto-estrogens will actually drop T levels.
Increasing Breast Size
Breast size is unrelated to the health of the breasts, or their functional ability. Having said that, many clients and friends have told me that they wished to have larger breasts. My first advice is to not even think about surgery. Even saline or soy oil breast implants are absolutely harmful to health. The 'safe' substances, like saline solution are still encased in a silicone 'bag', which gets surgically stuffed under the pectoral muscles, or over, depending on a number of variables. The silicone bag is NOT inert, as is claimed, and is actively attacked by the immune system. Even in a best case scenario, where scarring and hardening do not occur, white blood cells demonstratably remove microscopic chunks of the foreign silicone object, and travel through the body, eventually dying from the indigestible silicone. Wherever they end up dying, the particulate silicone is deposited. Eventually the immune system is toxified and out of balance, leading to the auto-immune conditions seen in women living with breast implants; unexplained skin disorders, arthritis, gut problems, and lupus-like symptoms. Read on for natural alternatives for natural breast growth;

Natural Breast Growth, at any Age
A few clients and acquaintances have tried herbal products designed to grow the breasts.There is one product I have seen lately which has the same ingredients as the previously successful "breast grow" formulas; a product called Mother's Milk and also Mother's Milk plus, made by the brand Motherlove. Designed to promote improved lactation in nursing women, it has the same herbs as the effective herbal products. Find it in health food stores.
Massage your way to larger breasts
Some women are claiming that they can improve their breast firmness, fullness and even gain size through self breast massage. There is an excellent site where women share tips and experience, at http://www.breastnexus.com/
Breast Composition, Growth, and Aging
Breast tissue is mostly made up of mammary glandular tissue, which is comparatively firm, as well as adipose tissue (fat), which is softer. Younger breasts tend to have more glandular tissue, and less fat, and are therefore firmer, compared with older breasts, which may have more fat, and less glandular tissue. The breasts are held in place by much connective tissue, which acts like an internal bra, helping to keep the breasts up. Breast connective tissue, like all other connective tissue, needs vitamin C to keep it's strength.
The hormonal response around puberty and again with lactation causes the breasts to develop new glandular tissue. Premenstrual hormonal stimulation may swell the breasts, but is for too short a duration to cause the growth of new glandular tissue. Some herbs (discussed above) taken consistently over time may stimulate something like a second puberty, causing increased growth of mammary tissue, which some clients of mine have found helpful to offset the loss of breast size due to fat loss.
Fat loss happens in the entire body, including the breasts. The only way I am aware of to offset this loss of size is using a herbal blend designed to support breast development. Roger, the herbalist at Herbie's Herbs in Toronto has made such a blend for a couple of my female clients upon special request, and they are happy to report good effects. I list Roger and Herbie's on my Toronto picks page.
Chest Exercises and Breast Shape, Size
Exercising the pectorals, located underneath the breasts, may somewhat add more 'lift', but is likely to be limited in effect. Women have asked me if weight lifting will increase or decrease their breast size, to which I respond that neither happens, as a direct result. Indirectly, there may be a loss of breast size, since weightlifting usually helps fat loss, which leads to some reduction in breast size, the extent of which depends on the amount lost, and individual composition. Women with more glandular tissue lose less than women with more fatty tissue in their breasts.
Breast Implants, breast augmentation
Aesthetically results of well done surgery can be quite pleasing and satisfying for some women who opt for this route, but consider the long term, permanent toxicity and immune stress from having silicone bags inside your body! I have read of many horror stories and can vouch that every breast implant post op I have known has had some sort of skin issue, which is a symptom of immune stress. Silicone bags are not inert at all, and in fact Dr's who work with post ops find microscopic bits of silicone all throughout the body! This is from the immune cells attacking the foreign object and actually "biting" microscopic pieces off of the bag lining, then going off and dying in some other part of the body, since bits of silicone rubber are not digestible at all and end up causing the white blood cells to die. Some may say "but I'm getting saline bags" or even soy oil bags, but the bag itself, which is in constant contact with your blood, is made of silicone.
Breast reductions
Some women who are well endowed think of surgically reducing their breasts. This surgery is quite invasive, and carries risks, as all invasive surgery does. I am against cosmetic surgery in most cases, and urge women to reconsider undergoing risks such as blood clotting, infection, and post surgery complication risks like reduced nipple or breast sensitivity, inability to breastfeed, unsightly scarring and ongoing pain.
Boobs aren't the culprits
There are plenty of men with back pain as well (no breasts to blame), so large breasts are often mistakenly implicated in back pain.
Know that good weight training and stretching can greatly improve back health and function. Plus, exercise is good for your whole body. Sitting for long periods of time, inactivity, under-hydration and poor nutrition are all back pain factors for us all. Many women with larger breasts are not wearing the right sized bra for best support. An improperly fitting bra can definitely cause back and shoulder pain. It is worth, at least once, to go to a boutique bra shop and be properly fitted by someone with experience. At least then you will know your optimum bra size/ type.
Keeping the Cervix Healthy
Cervical health is something that many women unnecessarily stress about- they go and get a PAP smear, and then worry until they receive news on their results. If they are told they have mild dysplasia, then the stress-meter goes up about ten notches, while they wait a while, then do more testing.
WHY is it not public knowledge, and WHY do many doctors not know- mega-vitamin therapy for cervical dysplasia is one of the few 'orthomolecular' treatments to be accepted by medicine?
That's right- an acceptable (and effective) treatment for cervical dysplasia is (or at least recently was), the prescription of several milligrams of folic acid (also called folate, or vitamin B9), and some vitamin C. Works well, no toxicity. What is the problem? Too simple? Not pharmaceutical enough? A friend of mine in her 50's received the scary news that she had cervical dysplasia. Taking 20 thousand iu daily of vitamin A almong with gernous amounts of folic acid and vitamin C normalised her completely, by the time she had a subsequent PAP test.
Folic acid is widely promoted to pregnant women, or women who are thinking of becoming pregnant, since it helps ensure normal nervous system development in the fetus, specifically protecting against neural tube defects (NTD's). To be safe, I would recommend all women to either eat lots of green vegetables, or take folic acid, (better yet- eat the greens plus take extra folate), at least 1 mg (more is safe, as well), and vitamin C. Personally, I take at least 5000 mg of vitamin C per day, since it is a potent detox aid, antioxidant, and connective tissue supportive. Plus, it's anti-ageing :-)
Cancer, Hormone Balance, and Xenoestrogens
Xenoestrogens are harmful endocrine disrupting chemicals found everywhere, unfortunately. We can definitely reduce our intake of them, and we can also detoxify most of them out of our bodies, as we should, to help protect us from sex hormone sensitive cancers; in women; breast, cervical, uterine, and in men; prostate (and sometimes breast cancer, as well).
Xenoestrogens also contribute to infertility, birth defects, hormonal imbalances, fibromyalgia, and endometriosis.
To find out how to detox xenoestrogens, see the detox pages- the liver flush, followed by some fasting would be a good plan. To minimise exposure, read the organics page, on this site. The Man page also has additional information on xenoestrogens.

Menopause
Menopause is a time of reduced hormone levels, generally speaking, and along with that, generally reduced metabolic rate, libido, and other changes. As a 45 year old guy, I am fighting ageing tooth-and-nail and well, i can totally understand the ladies wanting to do the same. Call me shallow, call me vain, but hey, it works for me to do what I reasonably can to keep myself strong, vital, active and brightly healthy!
For women, detox and exercise are massively helpful to keep or even regain lost function. Much more on detox and antAnother great tool is Bio HRT, or Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy. Women have reported more libido, more lubrication, spontaneous fat loss, more glowy skin, fuller breasts, and even fuller more kissable lips from it! To find a Dr. who will work with you in determining your best Bio HRT dosing, search around; they are here, in Toronto. you will also need a compounding pharmacy to custom blend the hormone creams for you. yes, Bio HRT is administered via a cream on your skin, and is associated with lowering your risk of cancer. Synthetic, standard HRT is toxic, in my opinion, and carcinogenic! Markies Pharmacy is listed in my Anthony's Toronto Picks page. They are a compounding pharmacy that may point you in the direction of a good Dr. who works with Bio HRT. Suzanne Somers the actress has written extensively in favour of Bio HRT (and has aged quite well, I might add).

Gardasil is 100% BULL$#!+
Gardasil lost a class action suit- they were successfully sued because of the obviously toxic and dangerous side effects their bull*&^% product caused numerous young women who used to be healthy before getting this nasty vaccine. At least 15 reported deaths have happened to young women after getting Gardasil, but "the official word is not yet out if they are directly linked to the vaccine". Of course they are, in my opinion! Come on! Let us not tolerate adding insult to injury- what- did these girls die of old age, before their 20th birthdays?

Vaccines in general are a doubtful proposition- refer to what concerned parents in Canada are saying, in their research and information sharing, on the excellent website vran.org.
Young women have become paralysed and others have died from Gardasil.Tell your friends- protect them.
90% of HPV, which Gardasil claims to protect against, goes away on it's own! There are hundreds, if not thousands of strains of HPV. Gardasil protects, at least claims to protect, against 4. Does that seem effective? So we have a dangerous, toxic, side effect riddled "vaccine" which is not even effective? WHy the hell would someone take this? It's all about pushing the propaganda via medicine (medical mafia, a term used by a Quebec Dr who knows what she's talking about) and their mouthpieces in the governments of Canada, the USA and elsewhere.
"while the world’s leading medical authorities state that HPV vaccines are an important cervical cancer prevention tool, clinical trials show no evidence that HPV vaccination can protect against cervical cancer" - Annals of Medicine, 2011, authors; Lucija Tomljenovic, Christopher A. Shaw, University of British Columbia
Having a healthy diet, a strong immune system and good hygiene, as well as intelligent and responsible sexual activity is what is truly protective!
I have to agree with Dr Anthony Morris and go against the accepted blasphemous dogma of medicine and just disagree with all vaccines. For children and babies especially but also for adults. No way anyone is convincing me to take any vaccine for any reason.
Dr. Anthony Morris;
"There is a great deal of evidence to prove that immunization of children does more harm than good."
-Dr. J. Anthony Morris, former Chief Vaccine Control Officer and research virologist of the USA
Health Canada hesitated posting that there have been 9,749 adverse effects, including paralysis in young women receiving Gardasil, in North America, AND there have been 27 deaths attributed (so, actually admitted- how many more have not been officially tied to Gardasil??) to this sad excuse for a medical intervention or prevention. They were pressured by non-pharma groups to post the problems associated with Gardasil, which took a while, for whatever reason (draw your own conclusions). The only thing, in my opinion that Gardasil helps to prevent is good health! These stats are as of June, 2008. Trajically, they would be much higher now, 8 years later! Do the right thing, and just say no to toxic medicine!

Gardasil lost a class action suit- they were successfully sued because of the obviously toxic and dangerous side effects their bull*&^% product caused numerous young women who used to be healthy before getting this nasty vaccine. At least 15 reported deaths have happened to young women after getting Gardasil, but "the official word is not yet out if they are directly linked to the vaccine". Of course they are, in my opinion! Come on! Let us not tolerate adding insult to injury- what- did these girls die of old age, before their 20th birthdays?
