What alternative therapies have helped you
Wrensong:
Haha - yes Jari - glad you found the article helpful in backing your viewpoint! ;D
Jari:
True Wrensong, I think it wouldn't be sensible to focus on one concentrated food type.
Balance is key! X
Sparrow:
I also think it is interesting to note that although rates in Japan for breast cancer are very low, they has been a slow but significant increase attributed to the change to a more Western diet.
Jari:
Good point Shadyglade! X
Wrensong:
Yes Shadyglade - that's often raised & is also very interesting I think. I ate soya products & later flax seeds for some years pre-menopause, the soya partly because of FH of BC, wanting to try to reduce my own risk & partly to try to improve a digestive condition. The flax I found helpful for digestive transit, but to my frustration found in peri that I had to stop it as it made my vasomotor symptoms worse - so maybe due to the possible antioestrogenic effect we are discussing here. I am just not sure enough either way from all I read & given the seriousness of such devastating conditions as breast cancer I tend to err on the side of caution.
