Could anyone please give me the links to some medical pages listing prescription medications that have been proven to heighten risk of breast cancer?

Meds rarely cause the disease ... other factors are more serious for concern ... Thank s to James and Rhonda, for literating about the 'Other' side of the disease, facts are mind boggling: You can learn more about James' and Rhonda's mission by seeing their site at the bottom of this answer. Other facts on CANCER ? 1. Every person has cancer cells in the body. These cancer cells do not show up in the standard tests until they have multiplied to a few billion. When doctors tell cancer patients that there are no more cancer cells in their bodies after treatment, it just means the tests are unable to detect the cancer cells because they have not reached the detectable size. 2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person's lifetime. 3. When the person's immune system is strong the cancer cells will be destroyed and prevented from multiplying and forming tumors. 4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to genetic, environmental, food and lifestyle factors. 5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet and including supplements will strengthen the immune system. 6. Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly growing cancer cells and also destroys rapidly growing healthy cells in the bone marrow, gastrointestinal tract etc., and can cause organ damage, like liver, kidneys, heart, lungs etc. .... ..... ..... ... for more n more visit the related weblink below ... more ... An effective way to battle cancer is to starve the cancer cells by not feeding it with the foods it needs to multiply. CANCER CELLS FEED ON: a. Sugar is a cancer-feeder. By cutting off sugar it cuts off one important food supply to the cancer cells. Sugar substitutes like NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc. are made with Aspartame and it is harmful. A better natural substitute would be Manuka honey or molasses but only in very small amounts. Table salt has a chemical added to make it white in color. Better alternative is Bragg's aminos or sea salt. b. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the gastrointestinal tract. Cancer feeds on mucus. By cutting off milk and substituting with unsweetened Soy milk cancer cells are being starved. Soy in Moderation. c. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment. A meat-based diet is acidic and it is best to eat fish, and a little chicken rather than beef or pork. Meat also contains livestock antibiotics, growth hormones and parasites, which are all harmful, especially to people with cancer. d. A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains, seeds, nuts and a little fruits help put the body into an alkaline environment. Cover food with a paper towel instead. {NOTE: a regular plate cover sold in stores for microwaves is the best item to use for covering anything in the microwave} This is an article that should be sent to anyone important in your life.

I don't think you'll find a reliable list. These articles may be of interest: http://www.ionchannels.org/showabstract.php?pmid=17487555 http://www.prozactruth.com/cancer.htm The known risk factors for breast cancer are: Increasing age - this is the greatest risk factor. Most cases (approximately 80%) of breast cancers occur in post-menopausal women (women aged over 50 years). Having children at at an older age or not at all. The more children a woman has may also slightly lower her risk. Breast-feeding helps protect against the disease. The longer a woman breast feeds her children, the more she lowers her risk. Starting periods at a younger than average age (under 12) or having a late menopause (after 55) . Taking the contraceptive pill or hormone replacement therapy (HRT) causes a small increase in risk. However, the risk gradually returns to normal after you stop taking them. Being overweight (especially after the menopause). Regularly drinking more than 1 unit of alcohol per day slightly increases the risk of breast cancer. Having a previous diagnosis of breast cancer increases the risk of developing a new cancer in the other breast. Hereditary factors account for 5 - 10% of cases.

I like Volunteer's answers, and agree with most all of it that I understand. Some things weren't clear to me, but that doesn't mean it's wrong. Good advice. One thing is that I'm not sure I trust microwaves. My wife and I put ours in the attic 7 years ago and it's still up there. Aluminum-based deodorants/anti-perspirants can put you at more risk. Cooking with aluminum pans is not good. Eating meat laced with hormones is not good. Chicken is especially bad as it's designed to make the chicken breast grow abnormally fast (I think 6 weeks) so that it makes it more profitable. I think the hormones are artificial, which is probably really bad. Ever notice why little girls hit puberty at 8 years old these days when it was previously later teens? Yep, artificial hormones. Beef is also a lot of times laced with antibiotics and gmo feed. Being overweight doesn't help. Linus Pauling, a chemist, did cancer research that was heralded back in the 60s that found when cells are cut off from the oxygen supply they mutate and go anaerobic, or cancerous, and start multiplying like crazy. That research has been largely squashed now. If you're immune system has not been rendered helpless with things like chemo, it will seal off the mutating cells in an attempt to cut them off from doing more damage. It's your body's way of fighting. I've read about treatments on http://www.cancertutor.com that says they can help anaerobic cells return to normal, but I'm not sure about this, it's the first time I've read that. I'm sure there's others, but keeping your body clean and free from garbage is one of the keys. Another words, it's about behavior that reduces your risk of developing cancer. T. Colin Campbell's work in the The China Study I believe addresses why the non-western diet is a powerful preventative measure and why the (rural?) Chinese are much healthier by and large. I have read breast tissue is made up of fat, I don't know if that's true or to what extent, but that fat combined with being overweight which adds more fat to that area seems like it would be trouble and could cause more cells to be potentially starved for oxygen. Also, my wife is an ND and says that she wouldn't even think about getting yearly breast screenings. Expose them to radiation that causes mutations. Not a good idea! Want a good way to cause cancer? I think that would about be #1 on my list of things to avoid assuming I tried to keep my diet and the rest of my life clean as far as cancer-causing exposure goes. If I were on the traditional American (e.g., western) diet, were overweight and had other high risk indicators, then it would be a tough question whether I'd go for yearly screenings.
