Know About Vitamin D3 and Breast Cancer
The Major Way to Stop Breast Cancer Before It Starts
Researchers at the University of California, San Diego Moores Cancer Center published new findings in April 2009 indicating that maintaining an adequate level of vitamin D3 in the blood will result in a 75% reduction in the number of women who die from invasive breast cancer beginning in the next few years. This same research indicates that the U.S. and Canada will also see 50,000 fewer cases of breast cancer each year, beginning in the next two years.
What does vitamin D3 do?
When you have enough vitamin D3 in your blood, it blocks cancerous tumors from ever forming. Maintaining an adequate level of vitamin D3 in your blood could soon eliminate the need for screening mammograms.
Achieving and Maintaining Adequate Levels of Vitamin D to Prevent Cancer
- Have a blood test to measure your current vitamin D3 level
- Take a Vitamin D3 supplement daily to maintain 60ng/ml in your blood (usually 2000 IU/day)
- Enroll in the D*action public health project of GrassrootsHealth to test your blood levels twice a year and to demonstrate the health effects of vitamin D for all of us!
Some May Ignore or Criticize The New Vitamin D3 Research
Once enough women are supplementing with sufficient amounts of Vitamin D3, breast cancer rates can be expected to drop dramatically. As breast cancer rates drop, breast cancer outpatient and inpatient numbers will also plummet, along with breast cancer drug and radiation services income. Therefore, most breast cancer foundations dependent on drug company and oncology center funding are not yet talking about the benfits of Vitamin D3.
