I had no alternative but to die or to try to find a cure for myself. I am a scientist - surely there was a rational explanation for this cruel illness that affects one in 12 women in the UK?\+-MZ I had suffered the loss of one breast, and undergone radiotherapy.na I was now receiving painful chemotherapy, and had been seen by someA of the country's most eminent specialists. But, deep down, I feltRnO;X certain I was facing death. I had a loving husband, a beautiful4 home and two young children to care for. I desperately wanted toUc}h# live.©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ xi/ ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ <(ZK9 Fortunately, this desire drove me to unearth the facts, some ofcW which were known only to a handful of scientists at the time.h2lu;\ Anyone who has come into contact with breast cancer will know that`f certain risk factors - such as increasing age, early onset oflzy. womanhood, late onset of menopause and a family history of breastJrnDW6 cancer - are completely out of our control. But there are many risk94"7 factors, which we can control easily.;p ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ Xi* These "controllable" risk factors readily translate into simpleKKG6 changes that we can all make in our day-to-day lives to helpo+i~P! prevent or treat breast cancer. My message is that even advanced~'OL breast cancer can be overcome because I have done it. b; The first clue to understanding what was promoting my breast cancer*a# came when my husband Peter, who was also a scientist, arrived backbDg& from working in China while I was being plugged in for auY`(]D chemotherapy session.
He had brought with him cards and letters, as well as some amazingqB herbal suppositories, sent by my friends and science colleagues inv4 China.ZxE:' ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ 3 The suppositories were sent to me as a cure for breast cancer.#"a 7O Despite the awfulness of the situation, we both had a good belly"N1\ laugh, and I remember saying that this was the treatment for breasty1 cancer in China, then it was little wonder that Chinese women' avoided getting the disease.%g4"A\ Those words echoed in my mind. Why didn't Chinese women in ChinaL get breast cancer? I had collaborated once with Chinese colleaguesQQ' on a study of links between soil chemistry and disease, and Iq remembered some of the statistics. The disease was virtually non-existent throughout the whole country. Only one in 10,000 women in China will die from it,Dk compared to that terrible figure of one in 12 in Britain and the~#Nq3T even grimmer average of one in 10 across most Western countries. ItH is not just a matter of China being a more rural country, with lessx6] urban pollution. In highly urbanized Hong Kong, the rate rises to` 34 women in every 10,000 but still puts the West to shame.M The Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki have similar rates.If| And remember, both cities were attacked with nuclear weapons, so in`U addition to the usual pollution-related cancers, one would also7 expect to find some radiation-related cases, too. Q|_V ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ *-u( The conclusion we can draw from these statistics strikes you with`mJ some force. If a Western woman were to move to industrialized,7JA irradiated Hiroshima, she would slash her risk of contracting2DG breast cancer by half.% ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ ).]ZO Obviously this is absurd. It seemed obvious to me that someja( lifestyle factor not related to pollution, urbanization or the3^7&o environment is seriously increasing the Western woman's chance of_=5fZ contracting breast cancer. I then discovered that whatever causes the huge differences inMM breast cancer rates between oriental and Western countries, itYlvbgP isn't genetic. Scientific research showed that when Chinese or Japanese peopleKM move to the West, within one or two generations their rates ofZnuA breast cancer approach those of their host community.j The same thing happens when oriental people adopt a completely*^:) Western lifestyle in Hong Kong. In fact, the slang name for breast`EE7 cancer in China translates as 'Rich Woman's Disease'. This isD; because, in China, only the better off can afford to eat what is{0j% termed 'Hong Kong food'.< ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ B The Chinese describe all Western food, including everything from:)Cj+% ice cream and chocolate bars to spaghetti and feta cheese, as "Hong\! Kong food", because of its availability in the former BritishYI9&s colony and its scarcity, in the past, in mainland China.NSg So it made perfect sense to me that whatever was causing my breastGLM^] cancer and the shockingly high incidence in this]5v] country generally, it was almost certainly something to do with our better-off,$+y<oP middle-class, Western lifestyle. jO0n% ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ tbw5/ There is an important point for men here, too. I have observed inJa my research that much of the data about prostate cancer leads to:u:En^ similar conclusions. According to figures from the World Health Organization, the number}nyg of men contracting prostate cancer in rural China is negligible,P;R only 0.5 men in every 100,000. In England, Scotland and Wales,z however, this figure is 70 times higher. Like breast cancer, it is:c a middle-class disease that primarily attacks the wealthier and higher socio-economic groups - those that can afford to eat rich?T foods.9b{0z ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ n I remember saying to my husband, "Come on Peter, you have just comeU_EGfg back from China. What is it about the Chinese way of life that is`{`,E- so different?" Why don't they get breast cancer?'@SK We decided to utilize our joint scientific backgrounds and approachJK it logically. We examined scientific data that pointed us in the generalY direction of fats in diets. Researchers had discovered in the 1980sl that only l4% of calories in the average Chinese diet were from:<=n fat, compared to almost 36% in the West.[Pe~> ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ .F_r9: But the diet I had been living on for years before I contracted& breast cancer was very low in fat and high in fibre. Besides, IxRyd knew as a scientist that fat intake in adults has not been shown to$# increase risk for breast cancer in most investigations that have7vq followed large groups of women for up to a dozen years.p8 Then one day something rather special happened. Peter and I have%{0mg worked together so closely over the years that I am not sure whichT one of us first said: "The Chinese don't eat dairy produce!"uu\ It is hard to explain to a non-scientist the sudden mental andX emotional 'buzz' you get when you know you have had an important:8 insight. It's as if you have had a lot of pieces of a jigsaw incH your mind, and suddenly, in a few seconds, they all fall into placeL}AQ0n and the whole picture is clear.
Suddenly I recalled how many Chinese people were physically unable;0 to tolerate milk, how the Chinese people I had worked with had3H3'k always said that milk was only for babies, and how one of my+'E,&o close friends, who is of Chinese origin, always politely turned down thesR@ cheese course at dinner parties. I knew of no Chinese people who lived a traditional Chinese lifeW-K who ever used cow or other dairy food to feed their babies. TheFn0 tradition was to use a wet nurse but never, ever, dairy products.* Culturally, the Chinese find our Western preoccupation with milkn=A and milk products very strange. I remember entertaining a largeqz delegation of Chinese scientists shortly after the ending of thej, Cultural Revolution in the 1980s.I ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ D5 On advice from the Foreign Office, we had asked the caterer to<~ provide a pudding that contained a lot of ice cream. After`L>1 inquiring what the pudding consisted of, all of the Chinese,?6: including their interpreter, politely but firmly refused to eat it,p"f,eI and they could not be persuaded to change their minds.Q<>T At the time we were all delighted and ate extra portions!g"wt Milk, I discovered, is one of the most common causes of food+ bp{| allergies. Over 70% of the world's population are unable to digestI the milk sugar, lactose, which has led nutritionists to believero that this is the normal condition for adults, not some sort ofj) deficiency.Ge<M] ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ &up} Perhaps nature is trying to tell us that we are eating the wrongRk food. Before I had breast cancer for the first time, I had eaten a lot ofSU5+ dairy produce, such as skimmed milk, low-fat cheese and yoghurt. If had used it as my main source of protein. I also ate cheap but lean?~go minced beef, which I now realized was probably often ground-upW dairy cow. In order to cope with the chemotherapy I received for my fifth case> Ln( of cancer, I had been eating organic yoghurts as a way of helping4Lz my digestive tract to recover and repopulate my gut with 'good'~< bacteria.<o ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ uIY Recently, I discovered that way back in 1989 yoghurt had been^BZ " implicated in ovarian cancer. Dr Daniel Cramer of Harvardt University studied hundreds of women with ovarian cancer, and had_(E~ them record in detail what they normally ate. wish I'd been made7Y5m aware of his findings when he had first discovered them.^L/,,K ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ zseo~ Following Peter's and my insight into the Chinese diet, I decided%h- to give up not just yoghurt but all dairy produce immediately.(BdA^o Cheese, butter, milk and yoghurt and anything else that containedkbn dairy produce - it went down the sink or in the rubbish.DRRV2 ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ }[fsX# It is surprising how many products, including commercial soups,Vo+i biscuits and cakes, contain some form of dairy produce. Even many` proprietary brands of margarine marketed as soya, sunflower or9`Tu olive oil spreads can contain dairy produce. 9 ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ k0lL4_ I therefore became an avid reader of the small print on foodW@L labels. Up to this point, I had been steadfastly measuring the progress ofM my fifth cancerous lump with callipers and plotting the results.ypBFss Despite all the encouraging comments and positive feedback from myr! doctors and nurses, my own precise observations told me the bitterN truth. My first chemotherapy sessions had produced no effect - the lumppbA[wa was still the same size.JYPi` ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ ]0(T)H Then I eliminated dairy products. Within days, the lump started to2'$` shrink.$ ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ , About two weeks after my second chemotherapy session and one weekn|t`#F after giving up dairy produce, the lump in my neck started to itch.}H75[ Then it began to soften and to reduce in size. The line on the;A graph, which had shown no change, was now pointing downwards as the`M\/ tumour got smaller and smaller. And, very significantly, I noted that instead of decliningIPF exponentially (a graceful curve) as cancer is meant to do, the"Q` tumour's decrease in size was plotted on a straight line heading8,x21c off the bottom of the graph, indicating a cure, not suppression (orG@Wn%q remission) of the tumour.B((f ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ tqKUK* One Saturday afternoon after about six weeks of excluding all dairy+ produce from my diet, I practised an hour of meditation then feltVJES for what was left of the lump. I couldn't find it. Yet I was veryK experienced at detecting cancerous lumps - I had discovered all"J*l five cancers on my own. I went downstairs and asked my husband to>4Yx" feel my neck. He could not find any trace of the lump either.[ On the following Thursday I was due to be seen by my cancer] specialist at Charing Cross Hospital in London. He examined meK=fuC9 thoroughly, especially my neck where the tumour had been. He wass initially bemused and then delighted as he said, "I cannot find7( it."©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ /jX&~T ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ 1@ None of my doctors, it appeared, had expected someone with my typeOoi6b and stage of cancer (which had clearly spread to the lymph system)B3a2 to survive, let alone be so hale and hearty. &WT ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ d My specialist was as overjoyed as I was. When I first discussed my# ideas with him he was understandably skeptical. But I understand^ that he now uses maps showing cancer portality in China in his2+Gu lectures, and recommends a non-dairy diet to his cancer patients.&_;(Q I now believe that the link between dairy produce and breast cancer{{3~]Y is similar to the link between smoking and lung cancer. I believeO that identifying the link between breast cancer and dairy produce,h}?S/ and then developing a diet specifically targeted at maintaining thew health of my breast and hormone system, cured me.k]sj{ It was difficult for me, as it may be for you, to accept that a!|sw substance as 'natural' as milk might have such ominous health ` implications. But I am a living proof that it works and, startingOR from tomorrow, I shall reveal the secrets of my revolutionary2I action plan.+O<a_ ©½t¥Í³N¼Æ¬ã¨sªÀ -- ³N¼Æ¬ã¨s¡@¡@ </P\
