Scary Suggestions from Blue Cross

11/4/2013

Comments

 
If I needed a broken bone set or sutures sewn I would be grateful I have health insurance! But they send pure crap in the mail.

"Health Tip: Your mammogram is past due."

Early detection is key with breast cancer. Then why am I sent this? The best early detection method is a thermogram, which detects abnormalities in the breast FAR EARLIER than mammograms, without radiation (or pain, I might add) - and it isn't part of the medical system. Why? It's too cheap, and mammograms are big business. Read my article on breast health to learn more. 

"Helpful Info: Ask your doctor if you are getting enough calcium."

I doubt many doctors the best way to protect your bones is to eat an alkaline diet. If you eat an acidic diet, your body has to work hard to neutralize those acids by pulling calcium out of your bones.

If you over 30 or post-menopausal and think you need to take calcium to protect your bones, please think again. This NY Times article may get you to reconsider as well as this huge study in the British Medical Journal, which followed 61,000 Swedish women for 19 years. They found that their bones got no benefit when they consumed more than 750 milligrams of calcium a day. 

Again, osteoporosis is best prevented by not eating an acidic diet that leaches calcium from your bones. Animal protein (including dairy), coffee, alcohol, refined sugar, and grains are the most acidic foods; whereas fresh fruits and vegetables are the most alkalizing, so eat your veggies.
