Since those with pre-diabetes and diabetes makes us more susceptible to developing cancer, as you can learn in the "Read More" link at the end of this blog, I thought it valuable to link a very important article on how Women with a commonly-diagnosed condition (DCIS or ductal-carcinoma-in-situ, which is usually non-fatal) is used to scare women into requesting invasive (surgical treatment) that really isn't medically necessary -- mastectomy (surgical breast removal).
This article will, I hope, be fascinating and illuminating reading for women who take the time to read it. It is well-documented and not hard to understand -- and it illustrates some key themes we've talked about in this blog before: that prevention is far better (and less expensive) than any medical attempt to remedy the problem; that there are many studies showing legitimate dietary supplements that show great effectiveness which Medical Doctors & Oncologists will never tell the patient about because they don't look for unpatented natural therapies; and that many "therapies" are foisted on patients for economic ($$$) reasons, rather than medical necessity (chemo and surgery, for example).
All women should read this, not just those with diabetes, because it could save them so much suffering and disfigurement: Breast Cancer Remedies Women Never Hear About, by Bill Sardi.
Please share this with friends and loved ones if you find it valuable. I can't emphasize enough how a little research done by the patient can save a lifetime of regret when it comes to deciding on medical treatments.
