PROTECT YOUR BREASTS

STOP IRRADIATING YOUR BREASTS!
THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE!
ARE MAMOGRAMS SAFE?

See below what Samuel S. Epstein, M.D., Chairman of the Cancer Prevention Coalition says about mammograms.
Food & Drug Administration Admits Medical Radiation Risks, Ignores Mammography Dangers
“CHICAGO, IL, February 16, 2010 --The Cancer Prevention Coalition notes with approval that on February 9, the Food and Drug Administration announced that it would take stringent action to regulate "the most potent forms of medical radiation," particularly those from increasingly popular CT scans.
Cancer Prevention Coalition Chairman Samuel S. Epstein, M.D. commends the FDA for warning that such radiation is unsafe and equivalent to that of about 400 chest X-rays, 0.4 rads (radiation absorbed dose), and "can increase a person's lifetime cancer risk."
However, says Dr. Epstein, "the FDA remains strangely unaware that radiation from routine premenopausal mammography poses significant and cumulative risks of breast cancer."
This warning is contrary to conventional assurances that radiation exposure from mammography is trivial, about 1/1,000 of a rad, and similar to just that from a chest X-ray. However, Dr. Epstein explains, the routine practice of taking two films of each breast results in exposure of about 0.4 rads, focused on the breast rather than on the entire chest.
"Thus, premenopausal women undergoing annual screening over a ten-year period are exposed to a total of at least 4 rads for each breast, at least 8 times greater radiation than FDA's "cancer risk" level," Dr. Epstein calculates, warning, "Such high radiation exposure approximates to that of Japanese women living approximately 1 mile away from the site of the Hiroshima atom bomb explosion."

ALTERNATIVE BREAST IMAGING IS AVAILABLE
Meet  my friend, Judy Mayor,  from Auburn Thermography  “From personal experience (having gone through breast cancer, chemotherapy and surgery), I felt like I had no choices over my breast care. No choice is a disturbing and frustrating situation. After months of research, I became aware of all the advances made in infrared imaging, along with testimonials of many people that had had lifesaving experiences. Most importantly, I learned that infrared imaging could help prevent people from going through the anguish I experienced with breast cancer treatments."…Judy Mayer,

Detects inflammation years before mammograms

What Makes Infrared Imaging Different From Other Tests?
Current research has determined that the key to breast cancer survival rests upon its earliest possible detection. If discovered in its earliest stages, 95% cure rates are possible. Thermography gives you that edge.
The greatest difference lies in the type of information you get from different forms of imaging. For example, CT, MRI and EBT excel at looking for tumors in the body. If no tumor is found, does this mean you are in good health? The vast majority of health problems that affect us, and decrease our life span, do not come in the form of tumors. Many health problems that slowly evolve and rob you of your quality of life cannot be detected by CT, MRI or EBT. Infrared imaging provides a different way of examining the body.
