Milk Increases Risk of Prostate
Cancer.
|
|
Researchers in the January 15
issue of American
Journal of Epidemiology investigated
whether early-life residency in
certain areas of Iceland marked by
distinct differences in milk intake
was associated with the risk of
prostate cancer in 8,894 men born
between 1907 and 1935. Through
linkage to cancer and mortality
registers, the men were followed for
prostate cancer diagnosis and
mortality from study entry from 1967
to 1987 through 2009.
During a follow-up period of
24.3 years, 1,123 men were diagnosed
with prostate cancer, including 371
with advanced disease (stage 3 or
higher or prostate cancer death).
Daily milk consumption in
adolescence (vs. less than daily)
was associated with a 3.2-fold risk
of advanced prostate cancer,
particularly in men before 1920
living in rural areas (where more
much milk was consumed).
These data suggest that
frequent milk intake in adolescence
increases the risk of advanced
prostate cancer.
Bonnie - it
is unknown if Iceland used
antibiotics or growth hormones in
the early 1920's. The assumption
would be no. These drugs are known
promote carcinogenicity. However, in
this study, there was still an
uptick in cancer risk from milk
consumption without them. Milk alone
promotes insulin-like growth factor
and other hormones that can
accelerate cell growth (healthy as
well as rogue cells). With
antibiotics and growth hormones,
cells grow even more rapidly.

Important Insuarance Announcement
|
|
 Private
Insurance
Our new Superbill will greatly
assist in getting our services
covered faster and easier!
There is only one thing you need to
do. Get a prescription prior to your
appointment with Bonnie. Have your
doctor write the diagnosis code(s)
on an Rx detailing the reason(s) for
your visit. Present the Rx to Bonnie
at your appointment. She will fill
out a Superbill for you to submit
with the Rx to insurance for
reimbursement.
Medicare
For our services, you would go
through the same process as above.
Then, you would submit the claim to
Medicare for reimbursement. In
summary, they are now covering
counseling services for diabetes,
preventive care or "wellness visit",
and obesity.
Disclaimer
As you know with insurance and
Medicare, there are never any
guarantees! These tips are just to
give you the best chance for
coverage.

lifestyle ideas?

Martinelli lives wellness
24-7, so who better to help
you navigate a difficult
eating plan and keep you
"wellness fresh," all while
managing a hectic lifestyle?
Care is in the office on
Wednesdays and Thursdays.
- Avoid your food
reactors.
The
hottest food trend of 2012
will be targeting those with
food intolerances. Why? We
are finally coming to the
realization that food
intolerances occur much more
frequently than once
believed. Everyone is
different in how and what
they react to. Luckily, we
have been treating clients
with food intolerances for
over fifteen years and have
the most accurate,
battle-tested screening
methods to accomplish
this.
- Cleanse and
Detox in a smart way.
One of the most popular ways
to begin a new year is to do
a cleanse or detox.
Unfortunately, certain
methods can do more harm
than good. Our Smart
Detox and Smart
Cleanse Action
Plans have been used safely
and successfully by clients
for years. They can be
purchased at our website or
are free to NCI Well Connect
subscribers.
- Choose mental,
exercise routine to fit your
individual needs.
Methods for exercising your
mind and body should be just
as individualized as your
food choices. Most
importantly, make sure your
routine fits your lifestyle
capabilities.
