Do you know about any herbs that help to keep breast tissues healthy, or help prevent breast cancer?

I am only interested in first hand experiences, not information you got from a book or website.

Thanks

Why do you anti-alt-med people waste our time by posting in this forum? You have no concept of 'healing' whatsoever. Why don't you all get together, take all the 'tested' prescription meds the pharmaceutical/petrochemical companies keep feeding you, and reap the benefits of their damaging side effects on an island far away.

There are people here who actually 'care' about their health. All you guys seem to care about is 'proving' your views are right. Guess what...you have failed. It must be very painful to see millions of people turn towards Holistoc medicine each year, because Western 'medicine' has continued to disappoint, or harm them.

Is spamming this forum a desperate attempt to convince people to return to your fading medical practice? LOL GO AWAY! You are not welcome here. You're worse than a swarm of mosquitoes.

Yes Kalos, I have low points because I came here looking for information, and have been asking questions. Do you have anything of value to contribute to this topic? You didn't address my question, so obviously you don't. Why bother wasting everybody's time with your trolling?

I don't have any first hand experience, but there is an excellent book by renowned Herbalist Susan Weed called 'Breast Cancer? Breast Health!' A few of my friends and family members have followed recommendations from that book after being diagnosed with breast cancer and went into remission, all while ignoring their doctor's orders! Other people I know use the book to help prevent it, since people in their families had breast cancer, and they are afraid it will happen to them too.

It's not an herb, but try the "deer exercise for women" . Do your own research on it. Any natural herbal remedy will only work at improving breast tissue while you are taking them. I for one wouldn't want to take a pill everyday for the rest of my life.

You might want to reconsider first hand experiences, scientific medicine has largely abandoned the use of first hand experiences to determine whether medicines work because they have found personal experience to be very unreliable (humans are easy to fool, even those who are very intelligent) so they ended up developing the double blind clinical trial so as to actually get something reliable.

If it hasn't been found to work by double blind clinical trial then you really have no way of knowing whether it works (and I doubt any herbs have been shown to be useful for that purpose in a double blind trial).

Birth control pills have reduced the occurrance of breast and ovarian cancer. And in Asia, where they eat soy everyday, there is an occurance of breast cancer a lot lower than in the US. If you've had breast cancer, talk to your doctor about eating/taking soy beforehand.
