New Gene Change is linked to Breast Cancer

NEW GENE CHANGE IS LINKED TO BREAST CANCER

The following news appeared in HealthDay, on February 22, 2012:
Researchers Spot New Gene Mutation Linked to Breast Cancer.

You can read it in: http://news.yahoo.com/researchers-spot-gene-mutation-linked-breast-cancer-190207592.html

Since you may find it a bit difficult to understand the original text, let me simplify the statement:

Scientists already know that there is a gene called BRCA1, and that is called a Breast Cancer Gene.

There is another gene called Abraxas Gene.

This Abraxas Gene drastically changes (i.e., mutates) for ‘some’ reason, and interacts with the Breast Cancer Gene.

This is said to make genetic alterations that increases the breast cancer risk.

This research was done by Associate Professor of Cancer Biology Dr. Roger Greenberg and his colleagues at Perelman School of Medicine in University of Pennsylvania, USA.

This was originally published in the journal called Science Translational Medicine. You can read the full text through this source: http://stm.sciencemag.org/content/4/122/122ra23.full

MY INTERPRETATION:

Let us say that you had a small cut on one of your fingertips. It bleeds, then stops after clotting.

You may feel the pain. However, if you took care of the wound so that it does not come in contact with water and the like, and keep it dry, it would heal in a day or two, provided that you are not a diabetic patient.

The above has been occurring since time immemorial.

Nowadays, with the advancement of science, and a need for academicians to publish research papers for a promotion in their career, they go much deeper to explain every little thing in much greater detail.

Thus, in reality, if you refer to some medical books for details of the wound that was found in your finger tip, they would have published ultra-microscopic view of the fresh wound to start with, then the changes that are found during the natural healing process.

They would also assign complicated names in Latin or Greek language to describe them.

A commoner would get perplexed by all the above.

However, if you are look at the overall picture, there was a bleeding cut initially, then it healed, and some of the tissues dried up and came off from the healed spot. That was all to it!

Likewise, if you are to look at the BREAST CANCER, you have two ways of interpreting it:

As a scientist (e.g., Oncologist - cancer specialist) intense details such saying “The breast cancer gene, viz., BRCA1”, etc., you can simply describe in the following manner,  of course based on MY STUDY and FINDINGS:

Some tissues in the breast are designed to absorb calcium from lymph and blood fluids. Using this calcium, the breast produces milk for to feed the baby.

If breast milk is fed to the baby, the scavenged calcium gets out of the breast tissues.

In the absence of breast feeding, the calcium tends to accumulate and form a benign lump.

If and when more and more calcium gets absorbed, the lump becomes much bigger in its size, and eventually turns cancerous.

Why should this calcium accumulate in a woman who has not delivered any baby? Often, it occurs even in virgins.

The answer is:
 

Under normal circumstances, the excess calcium brought to the tissues in the breast gets removed through frequent urinations.

If and when a woman avoids urination for any reason and withholds the urinal pressure, the excessive calcium, since it does not get removed, stays in the breast tissues, 

accumulates more and more, and eventually turns into a lump, and then into a malignant state.

(When urine is withheld, the water part alone gets out of the body in the form of profuse sweat, in a manner I have explained in our previous postings in this Blog as well as in my books.)

The calcium excess will increase in quantity, and within shorter duration, if the girl happens to take calcium supplements, calcium-enriched food items, and calcium-rich anchovies, and the like.

Thus, to the victim, in layman’s term, the simplified story will be:

“A girl did not urinate properly, she also consumed foods and supplements that contained abundant calcium in larger quantities, and as a result of these, she developed breast lump initially, and that turned out to be cancerous subsequently”

Of course, the above story can also be explained using scientific terminology and in intense detail, with electron-microscopic views of the many stages, as well.

Please note: The above explanation of the risk factor for breast cancer and related details are my own findings, and does NOT form an explanation of the original news about the mutation of the gene and its linkage to the breast cancer found by Professor Roger Greenberg and his colleagues.

OK, friends, bye for the time being,

UNDER-URINATION MAKES CHILDREN OBESE, NOT CAESAREAN DELIVERY

UNDER-URINATION MAKES CHILDREN OBESE, NOT CAESAREAN DELIVERY
(©  1998, 17 February, 2012: Dr.V.M.Palaniappan, Ph.D.)

Reuters has released a story (Page-28, New Straits Times) that refers to a study conducted in Brazil, and published in American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

Their earlier study appears to have suggested a link between C-section and overweight in babies. Some said this could be because of the lack of exposure to bacteria that are found in the birth canal.

Now, the explanation offered for this phenomenon appears to be different.

They relate obesity of the children to family income, birth weight, schooling, and mother’s weight, height, age and smoking habits.

*******

MY OBSERVATION:

I have very well established (Palaniappan, 1998-2011) that children and adults become obese and overweight because of the accumulation of CALCIUM in the soft tissues as well as in the bones, essentially due to UNDER-URINATION.

Mother’s milk contains 20 mg calcium per 100 ml, and cow’s fresh milk has about 120 mg.

The synthetic preparations of baby feeds tend to contain far too much of it - frighteningly larger quantities.

This is done with the erroneous assumption that calcium is very good for the body - the more it is taken, better it will be.

The belief is that, let the baby (or children) be fed with increased concentrations of calcium. The body would absorb what it wants, and the unwanted excess will get out of the body through urinations.

In theory, it sounds alright. However, in reality, this does not seem to occur, for the following reason:

A child must urinate adequately to eliminate all the unwanted toxic substances, including all the unwanted excesses.

Unfortunately, very often, most of the children are worn with very tight napkins, diapers and under-clothes. These prevent the child from urinating freely. As a result, they withhold their urinal pressure.

When excessive urine gets built-up in the bladder, the body deviates the fluid to be driven out of the body in the form of profuse sweat - giving rise to the problem of hyperhidrosis (= excessive sweat in palms, feet and all over the body). 

I have also recorded my findings in my book Asthma (2001) that prolonged hyperhidrosis (+ environmental particle pollutants) will give rise to asthma, bronchitis, nagging cough, sinusitis, and sneezing.

Anyway, when the consumed water gets lost in the form of sweat, there will not be adequate urine to remove the unwanted excesses.

This enhances their retention within the body, increases the body weight, and makes the person obese.

Normally, the carbohydrate content of the EXCESSIVE food a person may consume tends to get burnt to provide energy. However, the calcium content in the excessive food thus consumed will get accumulated within the body, along with the already-stored calcium that had accumulated due to under-urination.

Intake of calcium-rich food items (including chocolates, seafood such as anchovies, prawns, fish, fish oil, etc.), calcium-enriched foods (biscuits, snacks and several beverages), and calcium supplements tend to add on to the problem.

Another important fact worthy of consideration is related to chronic constipation (refers to defecation of slimy, smelly, and shapeless faeces, defecated twice or more number of times daily, and often misinterpreted as diarrhoea. Acute constipation should refer to not defecating for two or more number of days, even if it occurs of a prolonged period.  I have re-defined this in several of my publications, including in THE TRUE CAUSES OF ALL DISEASES.)

When a person (child or adult) defecates shapely and solid faeces, the hitherto unabsorbed calcium present in the faecal matter will get thrown out along with the waste. 

When a person defecates slimy faeces, the unutilised calcium becomes available for absorption by the glandular cells present in the wall of the intestine (called adenomatous cells), and that gets transported by the lymphy fluid to various parts of the body, which then increases the body weight / obesity of the person.

So, it is very important to make sure that a child defecates solid and shapely faeces all the time. This can be done by eliminating the food that makes the faeces slimy.

(Eating over-ripe fruits, e.g., papaya, can make the faeces slimy, and that can enable the increase in obesity.)

VERY THICK MILK FORMULAS MEANT FOR INFANTS ALSO PROMOTE THE DEFECATION OF SLIMY FAECES – GIVING RISE TO DIARRHOEA, WHICH IN TURN, ENHANCES THE ABSORPTION OF FAR TOO MUCH OF CALCIUM INTO THE INFANT’S BODY, THUS MAKING IT OBESE.

As pointed out in the Reuter’s news, most of the time, the obese mothers are the ones who tend to require Caesarean delivery. So, the probability is, that the children of obese mothers tend to become obese as well - and this can be attributed to genetics.

Can you guess what could be the truth in the above statement?

A pregnant woman who does not drink enough water (and thereby under-urinates) will naturally become obese. The growing embryo in her body too would become obese even before its birth.

Subsequently, the mother, while raising her baby, would not give adequate water (that being her habit), and also would not encourage or teach her baby to urinate liberally. These would then make her baby/child obese as well. The observers would then begin to believe that the child has become obese because the mother is obese.

The next question that stands out is, what should be done to maintain normal weight in growing up children?

The above explanation will be self-explanatory.

All it requires is,

(a)  Do NOT feed a baby / child with excessive calcium through synthetic means.

(b)  Do NOT wear tight under-clothes.

(c)  Train and allow a child to urinate once every two hours while awake, without withholding the urinal pressure.

(d) Make sure the faeces remains solid and shapely, and not watery or slimy.

These alone would keep the baby/ child in good health, with normal weight all the time.

The useful information to add on here will be, that, the pregnant woman herself would NOT become obese, if she urinates properly all the time. 

I have also explained in my books (Palaniappan, 1998-2011) that the embryo in a well-urinating woman would grow normal, and will not become obese.

Besides the above, a well-urinating pregnant woman would NOT develop what is called PREGNANCY DIABETES, called Gestational Diabetes (See my book DIABETES: CAUSES, CURE AND PREVENTION, 2011).

OK, friends, I will come up with another misunderstood story soon.
