It was difficult for me, as it may be for you, to accept that a substance as 'natural' as milk might have such ominous health implications. But I am a living proof that it works and, starting from tomorrow

WHY WOMEN IN CHINA DO NOT GET BREAST CANCER
By Prof. Jane Plant, PhD, CBE
By Prof. Jane Plant, PhD, CBE
BREAST CANCER is a cruel illness that affects one in 12 women in the UK.
1. I had suffered the loss of one breast, and underwent radiotherapy. I was now receiving painful chemotherapy.
2. The slang name for breast cancer in China translates as 'Rich Woman's Disease'
3. My husband Peter, who is a scientist, working in China, returned while I was undergoing a chemotherapy session.
4. He had brought some amazing herbal suppositories, sent by my friends and science colleagues in China.
5. The disease was virtually non-existent throughout the whole country. Only one in 10,000 women in China will die from it, compared to that terrible figure of one in 12 in Britain, In highly urbanized Hong Kong, the rate rises to 34 women in every 10,000 but still puts the West to shame
6. Lifestyle factor not related to pollution, urbanization or the environment is seriously increasing the Western woman's chance of contracting breast cancer
7. I discovered that huge differences in breast cancer rates between oriental and Western countries, it isn't genetic
8. The chines consider all Western food, including everything from ice cream and chocolate bars to spaghetti and feta cheese, as "Hong Kong food", because of its availability in the former British colony and its scarcity, in the past, in mainland China
9. So it made perfect sense to give up Western lifestyle
10. An important point for men here, too, the number of men contracting prostate cancer in rural China is only 0.5 men in every 100,000. In England, Scotland and Wales, the figure is 70 times higher. Like breast cancer, it is a middle-class disease that primarily attacks the wealthier and higher socio-economic groups, those that can afford to eat rich foods
11. Researchers had discovered in the 1980s that only l4% of calories in the average Chinese diet were from fat, compared to almost 36% in the West
12. But the diet I had been living on for years before I contracted breast cancer was very low in fat and high in fiber
13. Fat intake in adults has not been shown to increase risk for breast cancer
14. The Chinese don't eat dairy produce! Chinese people were physically unable to tolerate milk, they say that milk was only for babies. The tradition was never, ever, use dairy products
15. Milk, is one of the most common causes of food allergies. Over 70% of the world's population is unable to digest the milk sugar, lactose, which has led nutritionists to believe that this is the normal condition for adults, not some sort of deficiency. Perhaps nature is trying to tell us that we are eating the wrong food
16. Before I had breast cancer for the first time, I had eaten a lot of dairy produce, such as skimmed milk, low-fat cheese and yogurt
17. I had been eating organic yogurts as a way of helping my digestive tract to recover and repopulate my gut with 'good' bacteria
18. I gave up not just yogurt but all dairy produce immediately. Many products, including commercial soups, biscuits and cakes, contain some form of dairy produce. Even many proprietary brands of margarine marketed as soya, sunflower or olive oil spreads can contain dairy produce
19. My first chemotherapy sessions had produced no effect - Then I eliminated dairy products. Within days, the lump started to shrink
20. After giving up dairy produce, the lump in my neck started to itch. Then it began to soften and to reduce in size. The line on the graph, which had shown no change, was now pointing downwards as the tumor got smaller and smaller
21. After about six weeks of excluding all dairy produce from my diet, I practiced an hour of meditation then felt for what was left of the lump. I couldn't find it. Yet I was very experienced at detecting cancerous lumps - I had discovered all five cancers on my own
22. My cancer specialist at Charring Cross Hospital in London, examined me thoroughly, especially my neck where the tumor had been. He was initially bemused and then delighted as he said, "I cannot find it." None of my doctors, it appeared, had expected someone with my type and stage of cancer (which had clearly spread to the lymph system) to survive, let alone be so hale and hearty
23. The link between dairy produce & breast cancer is similar to the link between smoking and lung cancer. Identify the link between breast cancer and dairy produce, and then developing a diet specifically targeted at maintaining the health of my breast and hormone system, cured me
