I3C Vegetables and Breast Cancer

Indole 3 Carbinol Reduces Cancer Risk
 
Indole 3 Carbinol, I3C, is isolated from cruciferous vegetables. This phytochemical changes estradiol, a strong estrogen associated with breast cancer, to estratriol, a weaker estrogen. When I3C occupies the estrogen receptor, it blocks estradiol and it’s ability to signal cancer cells to grow. It effectively stops cancer growth up to 64% and promotes cancer cell destruction. (1991 research)
 
By 1997, the Strang Cancer Research Lab (Rockefeller University) discovery led to subsequent research at UC Berkeley. I3C inhibited human breast cancer cells growing in a culture by 90%, inhibiting MCF7 cancer cells. (Tamoxifen=60%)
 
There is more research at NYU that indicates I3C changes the metabolism of estrogen to inhibit the biologically active 16alpha0HE, which enhances breast cancer cell growth. In so doing, I3C increases 2-0HE, which is metabolically inactive and blocks the estrogen metabolism that is harmful. 
 16alpha0HE - 16 alpha-hydroxestrone which is bad
    2-0HE - 2 hydroxyestrone which is good
 
However, women who have a mutated gene, which retards the 2-OHE, do not benefit as much as other women from the I3C. They have an 8 times higher risk of breast cancer.
 
I3C also helps regulate new cell growth, p21, which restores tumor suppressor p53. I3C inhibits cancer caused by other chemicals and environmental pollutants. Damaged DNA cells were reduced by 91% I3C in studies on rodents exposed to cancer causing chemicals. I3C regulates estrogen, metabolites of estrogen and DNA damage to cells caused by cancer and related drugs.

Cancer

Cancer
Cancer pain is usually associated with bone, nerve and muscle pain.
Nausea is a separate issue and can be helped with Harmony Blend applied to the neck, wrist and inner ear 3 times daily, or every 15 minutes and until nausea stops.
Neuropathy is a burning tingling limb pain. Nerve pain and neuropathy can be helped with Lymph Flow lotion applied 3 times daily to the arms, legs, hands and feet. lotion may be applied to the same areas when numbness occurs. and can be used for lymphademga.
Lymph Flow lotion removes excess fluid and reduces toxicity and metabolic waste through lymphatic tissue. It is an energizer.Circulation Booster lotion increases circulation through the bloodstream throughout the body. Both can be used by alternating application 2 - 3 times daily on limbs and as a body lotion.
Several essence blends help cancer pains. Relax the Shoulders is an essence blend that assists the nerves in healing and rejuvenating from neuropathy. Stop Suffering should be used 3 times daily to help the body reduce pain receptors that cycle into any chronic pain syndrome. It can be used with pain and other medications. The blend relieves emotional pain as well as physical pain.
Neuropathy in cancer patients is often caused by chemotherapy agents. Dietary management may help prevent the onset and assist in healing side effects. Pyridoxal phosphate, B6, may reduce the incidence of neuropathy. Food sources include animal protein, whole grains, bananas, blackstrap molasses and many vegetables. Magnesium may also reduce neuropathy. Sources include wheat germ, green leafy vegetables, seafood, seaweeds, nuts and beans. (See Slice of Life, Griffin, J.: Herbal Health Inc. Fort Worth, Texas)
Nausea is also addressed through diet. Ginger Tea is often used to remove toxins that precipitate nausea. Caution should be used due to ginger's ability to thin the blood. This can cause bleeding and hemorrhaging, especially if platelets are low. Harmony Blend is safe, topical and effective. It also helps to reduce pain from neuropathy.

Autism and Flower Essences Feedback

We really have benefited a lot from your essences and have used them for all kinds of challenges with good success over the last 4-5 years.  Our daughter has Autism and the Self Imageand Deep Sleep have been so helpful for her and for us (and many of the others too)!  I have recommended it to a few other parents as well before we moved to a warmer climate.  I hope they have chosen to try it because it is one of the easiest treatments we have tried.  Over time we feel like it has had a powerful effect, though we noticed small improvements almost immediately.

AROMABLEND FOR AUTISM

AROMABLEND FOR AUTISM
By Dr. Judy Griffin
 
Although there are several different types of autism with similar symptoms, aromatherapy for autismis aided by the ADD/ADHD therapeutic blend. Autism is 10 times more common since the 1980’s, affecting 1 in 70 males and 1 in every 110 children. Autism is the fastest growing disability in the U.S., diagnosed more than cancer, AIDS and juvenile diabetes combined! New studies reveal different types of autism from genetics, environmental pollution and immunity. Dr. Amaral, from the University of California Davis Autism Phenome Project, sites a study indicating the brain of certain males with autism gets too large too soon during development. This could interfere or reduce the efficiency of neural transmission. Despite the type of autism, many of the behavioral symptoms respond to theADD/ADHD aromatherapy therapeutic blend (available at www.aromahealthtexas.com.) 
 
The ADD/ADHD aromatherapy spray is a blend of Petite Fleur essences and Aromahealthtexas essential oils. This aromatic blend is very grounding and enhances focus and the ability to follow through with a thought, plan or action. One adult male was able to speak coherently, talk on the phone and complete transactions successfully after 4 to 5 months of daily topical applications. The effect and time involved may differ with individuals.
 
Immune response is another factor in autism. Dr. Amaral states about 12 percent of women with autistic children have antibodies affecting the fetal brain. This may lead to a subset of families who may have autistic children. The ADD/ADHD aromatherapy for autism blends essential oils and Petite Fleur Essences to help reduce immune inflammatory responses. It also helps address general genetic imbalances that may increase the possibility of illness, and autoimmune reactions.
 
Environmental factors are cited by Dr. Amaral as an increasing concern for the rise of autism. The University of California study indicates a 55% risk of autism caused by shared environmental factors. The concern is that pesticides and other toxic agents introduced into the environment are casing and/or increasing the incidence of autism. ADD/ADHD aromatherapy also addresses protecting the immunity as well as detoxifying, especially, lymphatic impurities. There is also an Environmental aromatherapy therapeutic blend that works synergistically to protect and build a strong immune response. Dr. Amaral states that autism is rising around the world and environmental factors are definitely involved. Involvement of the general public is needed, on behalf of autistics. to reduce environmental risks. 
 
I use only pure organic essential oils and Petite Fleur Essences. The source plants are grown using only organic gardening techniques, steam distilled in glass, and hand separated in glass, all on site.  I use no hexane or petrochemicals in my gardens or lab. The ADD/ADHD aromatherapy therapeutic blend has the potential, overtime, to enhance neural connections and transmissions necessary to overcome the behavioral symptoms included in autism as a complementary therapy for autistic children and adults.

ADHD Testimonial

ADHD Testimonial
 
My mother sent the ADD/ADHD blend for my son. It’s been a miracle to see him change into a normal kid in 1 1/2 weeks. He is doing well in school, finishing assignments in 10 minutes instead of 30. He is on task at home as well. I am going to set my alarm 40 minutes later because he now has 40 minutes to spare before school. The results are amazing.
