"The fourth chakra is the heart, located between the breasts and associated with the color green. This is the balance point between upper and lower chakras. It corresponds to the circulatory system, heart, breasts, lungs, and overall nourishment. The heart chakra has to do with adaptation and compassion. The corresponding endocrine gland is the thymus. The fifth chakra is the throat chakra and its color is blue. It is located in the hollow of the neck and corresponds to the mouth, neck, throat, sinus, ears, and metabolic functioning. Communication and creativity are associated with this chakra." - Pam Montgomery, Plant Spirit Healing: A Guide to Working with Plant Consciousness (Get the book.)

"Place the breasts in the buttermilk mixture and soak at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes. Meanwhile, mix the almond meal, salt, and pepper and place in another resealable plastic bag. Drain the chicken breasts and immediately drop one into the bag with the almond meal mix and shake to cover. Remove and repeat with second breast. Heat the oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook about 4 minutes on first side. Lower the heat to medium, turn the chicken, and cook 4 minutes on other side, or until done." - Dr. Steven R. Gundry, Dr. Gundry's Diet Evolution: Turn Off the Genes That Are Killing You - And Your Waistline - And Drop the Weight for Good (Get the book.)

"However, fibrocystic breasts are not diseased breasts, but they frequently are associated with pain and soreness. There are a number of theories on the cause of fibrocystic breasts and a number of therapies, all of which are not without controversy. Some researchers believe that fibrocystic breasts are the result of iodine deficiency. A Canadian physician reported in 1988 that a majority of women with fibrocystic breasts experienced complete relief from their symptoms after being treated with elemental iodine for four months. When treatment was discontinued the symptoms returned." - Sheldon Saul Hendler, The Doctor's Vitamin and Mineral Encyclopedia (Get the book.)

"To flatten the breasts, place them in a large sealed plastic bag or wrap them in wax paper with the edges securely folded over. Then pound them until they are flat and thin. Heat a 10- or 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add the olive oil and melt the butter, swirling it around the pan. When the butter bubbles and sizzles, add the chicken breasts and cook them for about 2 or 3 minutes. Sprinkle them with salt and pepper, then turn them over and cook them for another 2 or 3 minutes. If the breasts are thick, they will take longer to cook." - Jack Challem, The Food-Mood Solution: All-Natural Ways to Banish Anxiety, Depression, Anger, Stress, Overeating, and Alcohol and Drug Problems--and Feel Good Again (Get the book.)

"Choose skinless, boneless chicken breasts and turkey breasts. And try to buy free-range and antibiotic/hormone-free poultry. • Fresh fish tastes best. Avoid farm-raised fish because they contain antibiotics (used to protect them from disease in overcrowded pens), as well as disturbing concentrations of pesticides and mercury. Stay away from the larger deep-sea fish such as swordfish, large tuna, and shark because of high levels of mercury and PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls). If buying canned fish, avoid products packed with vegetable or cottonseed oil. Water or olive oil is preferable." - Stephen Sinatra, M.D. and James C., M.D. Roberts, Reverse Heart Disease Now: Stop Deadly Cardiovascular Plaque Before It's Too Late (Get the book.)

"I have firmer breasts, more energy, have lost weight, and now I am working on ridding myself of negative thought patterns. JEAN My husband and I began to notice our bodies were not in good condition. He was a meat and potatoes man and a very picky eater. Over the years, he was exposed to lead paint and cadmium on his job and developed nocturnal seizures, low energy, digestive discomfort, and memory loss. I handled stress badly and was often intolerant. I had a bad accident: my breasts were caught between two doors and throbbed for two years." - Gary Null and Amy McDonald, The Food-Mood Connection: Nutrition-based and Environmental Approaches to Mental Health and Physical Wellbeing (Get the book.)

"First, toxins tend to accumulate in endocrine glands and in fatty tissues (e.g., breasts). Second, when the liver is loaded down with too many toxins, it can begin to clear them less efficiently from the body, especially excess estrogen." - Brenda Watson and Leonard Smith, The Detox Strategy: Vibrant Health in 5 Easy Steps (Get the book.) "Overall, the most common cancers—skin, lungs, breasts, kidneys, colorectal and prostate—are organs of excretion. It's possible that toxin accumulation for purpose of excretion may be a clue as to the connection between toxins and excretory organs. Medical and Dental Toxins We tend to make a distinction between "good" drugs (legal ones) and "bad" drugs (illegal ones), but the fact of the matter is that all drugs, even prescription and over-the-counter drugs, are toxic to some degree." - Brenda Watson and Leonard Smith, The Detox Strategy: Vibrant Health in 5 Easy Steps (Get the book.) "Today, the risk of an American man developing cancer over his lifetime is currently one in two (leading cancer sites for men are prostate, lungs, and colon and rectum); approximately one in three women will develop cancer over her lifetime (leading sites for women are the breasts, lungs, and colon and rectum). And, like so many other diseases that could be preventable, cancer and toxins have a long, correlative history in scientific literature." - Brenda Watson and Leonard Smith, The Detox Strategy: Vibrant Health in 5 Easy Steps (Get the book.)

"It corresponds to the circulatory system, heart, breasts, lungs, and overall nourishment. The heart chakra has to do with adaptation and compassion. The corresponding endocrine gland is the thymus. The fifth chakra is the throat chakra and its color is blue. It is located in the hollow of the neck and corresponds to the mouth, neck, throat, sinus, ears, and metabolic functioning. Communication and creativity are associated with this chakra. The corresponding endocrine gland is the thyroid. The sixth chakra is the third eye located between the eyebrows with the color of indigo." - Pam Montgomery, Plant Spirit Healing: A Guide to Working with Plant Consciousness (Get the book.)

"Lift the chicken breasts from the marinade and let the marinade drip back into the bowl and discard. Saute the breasts for 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Spoon the reserved, unused marinade over the breasts. Cover, reduce the heat, and simmer for 5 to 8 minutes, or until the juices run clear when the meat is pierced with a fork or small sharp knife. 3. Meanwhile, in a steaming basket set over boiling water, steam the beans, carrots, and red pepper for 3 to 4 minutes or until fork tender. 4. Spoon the couscous onto plates and put a chicken breast on top of the couscous." - Steven G. Pratt, M.D. and Kathy Matthews, SuperFoods Rx: Fourteen Foods That Will Change Your Life (Get the book.)

"I no longer have PMS [premenstrual syndrome] symptoms or feel cysts in my breasts. Depression lifted within six weeks. Eye floaters lessened. I notice new hairs on my head growing in darker. As my body eliminated and uncluttered, so did my relationships. I slowly allow new friends in my life and accepted a job I enjoy at a higher wage. —Athena I can't remember when I first felt depressed—it was always with me. I began seeing psychiatrists at the age of 16, and began taking various medications at age 18.1 was hospitalized at the age of 20." - Gary Null and Amy McDonald, The Food-Mood Connection: Nutrition-based and Environmental Approaches to Mental Health and Physical Wellbeing (Get the book.)

"It has been suggested that they do so because their excess fat is mainly subcutaneous and peripherally distributed (thighs, buttocks, breasts) compared with men in whom fat is stored in the abdominal region [46]. The BMI classification from WHO (Table 1) is based on the relationship between BMI and mortality. BMIs between 18.5 and 24.9 kg/m2 are referred to as normal, between 30 and 39 as obese, and above 40 as morbidly obese [45, 46]] A BMI of 30 kg/m2 does not always correspond to excess adiposity. A muscle builder may have a BMI of 30 that is associated with a large muscle mass." - Ann M. Coulston and Carol J. Boushey, Nutrition in the Prevention and Treatment of Disease (Get the book.)

Coulston and Carol J. Boushey, Nutrition in the Prevention and Treatment of Disease (Get the book.) "However, anatomical differences between male and female breasts also may contribute to the more aggressive clinical behavior of mammary carcinoma in men [4]. Estrogens are thought to play an important role in breast, endometrial, and ovarian cancers [6, 7]. Normal cell proliferation and differentiation in these tissues is highly responsive to estrogens and the other gonadal hormones, as well as cellular factors and mitogens that affect growth regulation and apoptosis and thus influence carcinogenesis across these cell types." - Ann M.

"Apparitions of this order, with loins of irresistible attraction and breasts bursting to be touched, are known to all the hermit-resorts of history. "Ah! bel ermite! bel ermite! . . . Si tu posais ton doigt sur mon epaule, ce serait comme une trainee de feu dans tes veines. La possession de la moindre place de mon corps t'emplira d'une joie plus vehemente que la conquete d'un empire. Avance tes levres. . . ." 43 Writes the New Englander, Cotton Mather: "The Wilderness 42 Ibid., CXVII. 43 Gustave Flaubert, La tentation de Saint Antoine (La reine de Saba)." - Joseph Campbell, The Hero with a Thousand Faces Joseph Campbell (Get the book.) "He should go through his hero's salmon-leap to the great yew tree where Scathach was giving instruction to her sons, set his sword between her breasts, and state his demand. Cuchulainn, following instructions, won from the warrior-sorceress acquaintance with her feats, marriage to her daughter without payment of a bride-price, knowledge of his future, and sexual intercourse with herself. He remained a year, during which he assisted in a great battle against the Amazon, Aif e, on whom he begot a son." - Joseph Campbell, The Hero with a Thousand Faces Joseph Campbell (Get the book.)

"The hormones that may be affected include ACHT, which stimulates hormone production by the adrenal glands; an antidiuretic hormone, which acts on the kidneys to decrease water loss in the urine and thus reduces urine volume; TSH, which is the hormone that stimulates the thyroid; the growth hormone, prolactin, which stimulates female breast development; melanocyte, which helps control the function of male and female sex organs; and oxytocin, which stimulates contraction of the uterus during childbirth and milk release from the breasts." - Tom Bohager, Everything You Need to Know About Enzymes to Treat Everything from Digestive Problems and Allergies to Migraines and Arthritis (Get the book.)

"Heart Chakra The fourth chakra, or green heart chakra located in the middle of the chest between the breasts, is the balance point between the upper and lower chakras. Here we move beyond the ego and begin to experience something greater than ourselves; we come to understand that the world is larger than we anticipated, encompassing an entire unified field of interconnected relations. Our awareness of unity blossoms into compassion, not only for other humans but in all of our relationships, moving us into a stream of love—the glue bonding all together." - Pam Montgomery, Plant Spirit Healing: A Guide to Working with Plant Consciousness (Get the book.)

"Low Progesterone Low progesterone usually means having a bloated belly and breasts that feel like overripe melons, heavy and tender to touch. Uncontrollable bitchiness may alternate with a moody sensation of low self-worth in a never-ending miserable loop in your mind. There can be erratic and often heavy bleeding that can leach your minerals, leave you exhausted, and make you cry. Without enough progesterone, sleep may become like a second job, with rituals, sleep aids, and prayers to the gods and goddesses for the blessing of some uninterrupted slumber." - Phuli Cohan, The Natural Hormone Makeover: 10 Steps to Rejuvenate Your Health and Rediscover Your Inner Glow (Get the book.)

"On one occasion, she reluctantly told me, he grabbed her breasts and "stomach" and humped her as if having sex. She felt humiliated and terrified. Although Jennie was never able to express to me or to anyone else why she did what she did, my discussions with her eventually led to how much the boy had "taken advantage" of her. She didn't seem to be trying to sell me on the idea that she had defended herself against abuse; she seemed instead to be reciting in suppressed monotones one more sad detail of her life, never expecting anyone to listen or to care." - Peter Breggin, Medication Madness: A Psychiatrist Exposes the Dangers of Mood-Altering Medications (Get the book.)

"The breast tissue feels thick, lumpy, or as if there are tiny beads scattered throughout the breasts. In addition to the lumpiness, breasts can be swollen, painful, and tender. Typically, symptoms are worse just before menstruation. The degree of discomfort can vary and usually subsides near the end of menstruation. By bringing estrogen and progesterone back into balance, fibrocystic breasts can often be cleared. Infertility, technically diagnosed if there is an inability to conceive a child within one year, can also be attributed to estrogen dominance." - Holly Lucille, Creating and Maintaining Balance: A Woman's Guide to Safe Natural Hormone Health (Get the book.)

"Experts now no longer recommend following a strict examination routine, but for women to get to know what is normal, and feel their breasts regularly for signs of any changes. They should look out for a new lump or hard knot found in the breast or armpit, or unusual changes in the size, color, shape or symmetry of the breast and nipple, such as swelling or thickening of the breast. Is there a good alternative screening method? Yes, there is a side-effect free and inexpensive screening technology that is far more effective than mammography." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.) "Medical schools teach doctors to always handle woman's breasts with great care for this reason. • Research has identified a gene, called oncogene AC that is extremely sensitive to even small doses of radiation. A significant percentage of women in the United States have this gene, which could increase their risk of mammography-induced cancer. An estimated 10,000 AC carriers will die of breast cancer each year due to mammography. • Since mammographic screening was introduced, the incidence of a form of breast cancer called ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) has increased by 328%." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.) "They found that the breasts of women who were living and working in cities were more than twice as likely to be 25 percent or more dense tissue. Researchers hypothesized that city dwellers may have increased breast density because of hormone-disrupting toxins contained in air pollution. They also cited stress to be a possible factor. I might add that the forceful mammogram procedure could also contribute to breast cancers in women with denser breast tissue by injuring it. Softer, fattier breast tissue can tolerate the potentially injurious mammography screening much better." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.) "The study also found that women with dense breasts were 18 times more likely to have a breast tumor detected within one year of a negative mammogram. Now, recent research conducted by the Princess Grace Hospital in London (U.K.) and presented to the Radiological Society of North America showed that women who live and work in cities have a significantly higher risk of developing breast cancer than women who live in the country. To determine the reasons for this occurrence, researchers examined the breast tissue of 972 British women between the ages of 45 and 54." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.)

"I had a bad accident: my breasts were caught between two doors and throbbed for two years. We started to follow a vegan protocol from a health book. We studied urine therapy and acupuncture, and began to use colonics and sprouting. My husband has fewer seizures today, has more energy and enhanced memory, and enjoys his new diet. He is enthusiastic and looks forward to his seventy-fifth birthday. We are energetic and without intestinal problems, and we handle stress well because we are no longer toxic. My female organs function as well as they did in my younger years." - Gary Null and Amy McDonald, The Food-Mood Connection: Nutrition-based and Environmental Approaches to Mental Health and Physical Wellbeing (Get the book.)

"Moods are up and down, and there is often a low-grade irritability and an unsettling dissatisfaction with everything around you. Your breasts may swell and your nipples can feel itchy or overly sensitive. Menstruation may be heavy and short one month, spotty or nonexistent the next. Unfortunately, this is all taking place in our forties, when our careers are peaking, our lives changing. Often our children are in the throes of adolescence and our aging parents are in need of more care and time from us." - Phuli Cohan, The Natural Hormone Makeover: 10 Steps to Rejuvenate Your Health and Rediscover Your Inner Glow (Get the book.)

"This can no more be resisted than the moth can resist the flame"—and stick: "Breasts and genital organs will not shrivel. Such women will... not become dull and unattractive." The Wilsons described female aging as a disease caused by the failure of postmenopausal women's ovaries to produce estrogen. They hypothesized that this medical condition could be treated with estrogen, the same way that diabetes, caused by the failure of the pancreas to produce adequate insulin, is treated with insulin. It's easy to be angry about the harm done to so many women as a result of Dr. Wilson's work." - John Abramson, Overdosed America: The Broken Promise of American Medicine (P.S.) (Get the book.)
