Protection
from Breast Cancer - Part II
This is the second article in our
three-part series on protection from breast cancer.
We want to remind you again that we should not be
frightened or discouraged by the words "breast
cancer" because we have spiritual authority as
believers and revelation knowledge of God's healing
provision in the plant kingdom, which gives us power
over this dreaded disease. Let's continue to discover
how some very simple things that God has provided
can help you prevent breast cancer.
Know your family history. Patients with a strong
family history of breast cancer, or unusually thick
breast with increased amounts of fibrous tissue, might
want to consider taking omega-3 capsules daily. A
study published approximately two years ago in the
Journal of the National Cancer Institute indicated
that taking fish oil capsules increased the concentration
of omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) in breast tissue.
Canola oil, walnuts, and flaxseed are some of the
natural sources that are also effective for this purpose.
Add kiwi fruit to your diet.
Who would ever think that kiwi could play a role in
protection from breast cancer? The Journal of the
American College of Nutrition ranked kiwi as the most
nutrient-dense of all fruits. It provides vitamin
E, magnesium, and potassium and is also proving to
be a good source of dietary fiber. Studies show that
vitamin C can inhibit breast cell division, thus reducing
the risk of breast cancer. Kiwi supplies twice the
level of vitamin C that oranges provide. These facts
indicate that kiwi would be an excellent addition
to your diet.
