Re: OT--Need comments and suggestions for breast cyst

[Guest guest]

Remedies for Cysts:

selenium

zinc

copper

calcium

magnesium

potassium—probably best to use potassium iodide

iodine (at least if you're deficient)—for ovarian and other cysts; potassium

iodide may be the best form

fish oil

flax oil

black currant or evening primrose oils (GLA)

indole-3-carbinol (I3C)

Noni

burbur

dandelion

chasteberry--reduces estrogn. " Avoid chasteberry if you take oral

contraceptives "

SAMENTO.com.ec (cat's claw)-- 30 drops twice daily 30 min. before mealtimes

(start with one drop twice daily slowly increasing the dose until reaching 30

drops twice daily) (Dr. Cowden, whom I immensely respect)

pancreatic enzymes—take on empty stomach

vits. C, E?, B6, B-complex

vit. A-- " 12 women with FBD were given 150,000 IUs of vitamin A daily for 3

months. Nine of the women reported marked pain reduction...(Band et al. 1984) "

www.lef.org/protocols/prtcl-145c.shtml, but I would consider such taking such a

high dose of vit. A ONLY under medical supervision and ONLY in the form of

EMULSIFIED vit. A.

vit. D-- " polycystic ovary syndrome [patients] were low in vitamin D

levels....Normalization of vitamin D levels normalized menstrual cycles

.....Insulin resistance is a central issue [in polycystic ovary syndrome [so]

restrict sugars and grains "

" castor oil packs may help dissolve lumps and relieve pain. Sometimes lumps will

shrink after only a few applications " www.lef.org/protocols/prtcl-145c.shtml

adrenal support?

heavy metal detox

DIET:

EAT MORE: fiber; exercise; fruits & vegetables (particularly cruciferous)
