Not my opinion!

I'm not sure what your point is but I believe S. Somers began following her hormone program after she had breast cancer and the truth is that she cured herself without chemo or radiation and is happy and healty today, I actually envy her (in a good way).

I don't know if you saw a recent show in which Crhistina Applegate appeared.  She had both breasts removed due to fear of recurrence of her b/c in the remaining breast - I felt really bad for her.  Even though my mother died of b/c last year (or rather, the aftermath of conventional treatments for her metastasis) and the fact that I also have a maternal aunt who had a mastectomy I would NEVER have one myself, there is a lot we can do to prevent even a "bad gene" to express itself.  Personally, I feel that to recommend double amputation to a patient is BAD and really barbaric medicine that possibly in a few years many will regret.  Furthermore, I believe that insufficient iodine and our overexposure to fungus and mycotoxins (in our food supply) is responsible for more breast cancer than estrogen or anything else, in fact, I don't even buy that, if estrogen is a factor it has to be in an indirect way since it's a natural and necessary hormone produced in our bodies, besides in all of the past history of humanity, during all of which women have been producing estrogen, there never was such a high incidence of b/c as there has been in the past century.  But no one will touch with a 10-foot pole how so many young women have had synthetic hormones in "the pill" or how we are besieged by xenoestrogens in our environment.  Lifestyle and pollution is what we should really be looking at.
