Fibrous Breasts

What are Breast Fibroids?

Also known as fibrocystic breast disease, mammary dysplasia, benign breast disease and diffuse cystic mastopathy, are non-cancerous, moveable, rubbery nodules that cause painful swelling near the breast and are quite common in women 30 years or older.

Causes of Breast Fibroids

Factors that play a significant role in the development of breast fibroid disease:

• The monthly changes in levels of estrogen and progesterone
• Prolactin, growth factor, thyroid hormone and insulin
• Hormonal products from the breast glandular and fat cells send signals to the   neighboring breast cells, key factors responsible for breast fibroids.http://www.womenshealth.co.uk/breast_fibroids.html

Fibrous breast tissue cancer is unlikely because breast fibroids are non-cancerous growths. Unfortunately, fibroids can increase the chance of developing breast cancer because the presence of breast fibroids are the result of cells not responding correctly to the body’s signals that control cell division and growth. Remember though, the statement is fibroids “can” – not “will” increase your risk of cancer. http://www.womensforum.com/fibrous-breast-tissue-cancer.html

Fibroid Shrinking Foods

Foods which can detoxify the blood are garlic, carrots, beets and artichokes. Vegetables and fruits like broccoli, cabbage, bok choy, kale, turnip, watercress, radish and arugula. Avoid overcooking vegetables.  Eat foods containing natural carotenes such as apricots, sweet potato, cantaloupe, carrots, pumpkin, and spinach.

[Raw is best – juice entire fruit and veggie, including seeds, stems and peel. Juicing several meals weekly gives the digestive system a needed rest and may increase energy levels.]

Glands of Endocrin System

Your endocrine system is a collection of glands that produce hormones that regulate your body’s growth, metabolism, and sexual development and function. The hormones are released into the bloodstream and transported to tissues and organs throughout your body.
