The Answer to Brest Cancer
The ANSWER to BREAST CANCER! OCT. 2007
October is Breast Cancer Month and so I thought I'd share with everyone: "The Answer to Cancer."
Very simple: Avoid what's causing the cancer!
TIME magazine's front cover story, ( Oct. 15th 2007) Why Breast Cancer Is Spreading Around the World by Kathleen Kingbury, complements what I also believe: The spread of U.S. and European lifestyle (our habits) is contributing to the breast cancer boom. The worst of these habits: DIET.
Without a doubt, I believe, BREAST CANCER is caused by our ignorance on how to select, prepare, and eat food to maintain our optimal health and well-being. I know one woman who has reversed their breast cancer. If one woman could do it, every woman in the world could do it.
Help get the word out locally and globally!

Quack. I find this offensive...like what I ate gave me BC. Right, it must be my fault. WTF do you know you commercially motivated man who can't even spell the word BREAST properly. Go market somewhere else.
-
I agree with you Twink. And Quack is a very kind term for a loser like this. Honestly, you would think that he could spell breast correctly. Idiots like this need to get a life and stay out of ours.

Twink, Bonnie:

Breast Cancer Exposed
Breast Cancer Exposed: The Connection Between Food and Survival
My second book shows, through Joyce Tenneson's poignant and sensitive photos, the results of my mastectomy. It also describes, in my words, the all-important connection between the food choices we make and our health and well being.I want to raise awareness that there are costs for putting overly processed and chemically treated food into our bodies - and often we pay with our health or our lives. I firmly believe that changing my diet dramatically changed - and ultimately saved - my life.
The inspiration for this book came to me one night in April 2003 when I was just starting to write Becoming Whole. Asking for guidance led to this realization: For people to truly understand my message, I had to be willing to expose my body and show what I had experienced.It was terrifying to consider having these photos taken. But I trusted my instincts and my friend and photography mentor, Joyce Tenneson ... and took a leap of faith. I hope you'll order a copy for yourself, a relative or friend facing a mastectomy, or for anyone facing a serious illness or other obstacles. And I hope you'll find it reassuring and helpful.

David,
This is not the best venue to sell your beliefs. Please be respectful of all the women here who are suffering. You are ignorant. Go tell Linda McCartney your beliefs. Oh, wait a minute, she's dead from breast cancer and she was a vegan.
-
Twink,Bonny,and Sasse-
Way to not be pushed around-thanks for fighting for all of us out here who WOULD have prevented our cancers if we could have.
I think the whole "blame the victim" trend should stop- who knows why God choose us to shoulder this disease-so let's leave it in his hands.

Sigh,
David is a mainstay macrobiotic person here in Boston. Although I have never met him, I can say that starting in my 20's I was macrobiotic and veg for most of my life. I also had my kids early and have exercised religiously since college. My kids were veg as well and are now 17 ~big tall twins!
I am 42 now and was diagnosed last October and have continued yoga and rock climbing the whole time.
Quite simply, I am living proof that David is sadly mistaken. Diet is only part of this puzzle.I know of no person that has reversed their cancer with diet. I would love to meet one and then would like to see the documentation from their onc. BTW: I would love to be proved wrong on this!
We as women already know that we did not cause this to ourselves and if I can get this anyone can. The number is 1 in 8 now...just on NPR a minute ago. There is still alot of ignorance with this disease, believe it or not and it makes us angry and frustrated as it is to deal with it.
I also work at a major genomic research institution @ MIT and Harvard with alot of what my oncologist considers to be "Cancer Rock Stars." I think that at this point we do know that diet is VERY important but it is FAR from the only factor with this terrible disease. I found this link today and as usual was amazed by how many probable causative agents that we are exposed to on a daily basis. Admittedly some of them are food specific.....but most are not.
http://healthychild.org/blog/comments/breast_cancer_suspects/What is needed is support here, support for the crappy decisions on treatments that as patients we are forced to make on not quite good enough research and knowledge......not evangelical lecturing.
I love eating macrobiotically and it does make me feel better but I would never tell my fellow peeps that it was THE CURE.
Be Well,
~climbergirl

Thanks for jumping in climbergirl. I can't say that I ate properly but I did have my kids early and nursed all three for longer than most. My weight is good and I exercise regularly. In any case, I got the triple negative kind...so any efforts (by design or not) to control my estrogen didn't matter one whit.

DEAR ALL:
TIME Magazine, Oct. 15th 2007, did a cover story of Breast Cancer spreading all over the world. WHY? One of the reasons that Kathleen Kingsbury mentioned is the spread of the American Lifestyle. She said the first and worst is diet. I agree wholeheartedly.
PRESS RELEASE
For Immediate Release. Oct. 10, 2007
Newton, MA. Oct, 10, 2007. "Let's declare, ‘Peace with Breast Cancer'" announces David Snieckus of Newton, MA., http://www.davidsnieckus.com/, and Macrobiotic Counselor and Chef for over 30 years. "Instead of bombarding the tumors with radiation or chemotherapy or invading woman's bodies with a knife, let's begin a more gentle and peaceful way. Let's start by being grateful for our cancer as a messenger for us to address its cause and change our lifestyles!"
"Look," continues Mr. Snieckus, "Tony Snow's cancer is back, Elizabeth Edwards' cancer is back. The medical treatments that they decided upon a few years ago were ultimately not effective. Why? Because, like most of us, Mr. Snow, Ms. Edwards and their doctors think that there is something outside of ourselves that can cure cancer. There is no cure for cancer except our immune systems. We can prevent and actually reverse cancer without doctors and their drugs by strengthening our immune systems! This begins right in our own kitchens with a change in our diets!"
"When President Nixon gave his State of the Union address in January 1971, pronouncing a ‘War on Cancer', I was just returning from Vietnam," states Mr. Snieckus. "Since then, trillions of dollars have been spent on the ‘War on Cancer'. But all the research, all the drugs, all the surgeries for cancer have not resulted in long term health. These approaches may have prolonged the lives of some, but most all cancer survivors, like Tony Snow and Elizabeth Edwards, experience recurrences. Why? Most likely because they did not change their eating habits and their lifestyles." In declaring the "Peace on Breast Cancer", David wants everyone to know that "cancer is not necessarily the deadly disease we have accepted in our collective consciousness. Of course, we have to be serious about it, but cancer needs to be looked at differently. Cancer treatments need a new approach. Instead of a war on cancer, with drugs, radiation and surgery, we can declare peace with cancer and see it for what it really is: A wake-up call to take better care of our bodies and feed ourselves properly! A messenger for healthy changes!"
Mr. Snieckus has researched chronic illness, especially cancer, since 1977. With his knowledge and wisdom, he has taken on the great challenge of helping to shape the new era of health and wellness in America.
He says, "Call off the doctors, call off the drugs, call off the chemicals, call off the surgeries. The war is over. Cancer can be our friend. Cancer is a healthy reaction to an unhealthy lifestyle. There is no medical cure for cancer. Cancer is the cure. See cancer as your ally and peacefully change your diet and lifestyle."
David Snieckus is currently writing the book, THE CURE: Change YOUR Eating! For more information and a FREE REPORT, David can be reached at http://www.davidsnieckus.com/
