Thermography and Iodine

I highly recommend this audio tape: Breast Health: Thermography and Iodine. I bought it for $19.95, I listened to it, and I thought that what this doctor (an osteopath) has to say about both thermography AND the use of iodine in breast cancer prevention (for any woman, whether she has or hasn't had breast cancer) was RIGHT ON.

I've gotten on the soapbox about iodine (Iodoral) in more than one of my previous blog posts. This tape gives an excellent summary of how and why iodine is so important to breast health and good health in general, for both men and women (and using regular iodized salt is not even remotely enough).

Thermography I haven't mentioned until now. Now I think it's an important adjunct tool for preventing breast cancer. Dr. Tenpenny's explanation as to why and how thermography works is EXCELLENT and very persuasive, so much so that I made an appointment and got my first baseline thermography done last week. I plan to use it in conjunction with mammograms; my belief, after listening to Tenpenny's CD, is that this will allow me to do fewer mammograms, which DO cause an accumulation of carcinogenic radiation in the fatty breast tissues.

Dr. Tenpenny also has a Breast Health Blog, the link to which I have added to my list of alternative health resources (lefthand sidebar...scroll down past the list of recommended books).
