 Dear Reader,
It was a media storm I won't soon forget.
At the end of last year, the US Preventative Services Task Force called for women to hold off on mammograms until the age of 50, and then only to get them once a year after that.
Here at Nutrition & Healing, we thought it was a small step in the right direction – Dr. Wright has been telling us for years that mammograms increase the risk of breast cancer (and yet another study confirmed it late last year). But the American Cancer Society and American College of Radiology whipped the mainstream media into such a frenzy that all sensible argument was lost in the roar.
And while everyone's arguing about how early and how often women should be subjected to a potentially harmful screening test, some very important news has been ignored.
News about how we can defend our bodies against breast cancer – naturally.
In an animal study at the University of Michigan, in the US, it was found that sulphoraphane, a compound found in broccoli sprouts, eliminated breast cancer stem cells, halting tumour growth after cells were implanted in mice.
Researchers were impressed. They reported that the "findings support the use of sulphoraphane for the chemoprevention of breast cancer stem cells."
Now, this is big news. But it isn't the first time e-Tips readers have heard about the wonders of broccoli sprouts. In fact, back in 2006, we told you about a couple of big reasons to get them in your diet.
Reason #1: A diet rich in broccoli sprouts can reduce H. pylori infection, which is thought to contribute to peptic ulcers and stomach cancer.
Reason #2: Broccoli sprouts may reduce the risk of skin cancer in people who have overdone it in the sun. Researchers found the carcinogenic properties of ultraviolet light exposure were counteracted by sulphoraphane in an animal study.
And now we have a big Reason #3: This is certainly more than enough evidence to get me adding a heap of them to a daily salad.
Sulphoraphane is also available in supplement form, for those of you who can't find them at the supermarket.

Does your child really need a hepatitis B vaccine?
Q: I'm a little confused here. My daughter will be starting school this year, and her paediatrician told me about the vaccines she should get. When he mentioned hepatitis B, I have to say I was puzzled. I thought hepatitis B was a disease like HIV, only transmitted through body fluids. I can't imagine that my daughter is really at high risk for it. Am I wrong? Should I let her have the vaccine for it?
Dr. Jonathan V. Wright: You're not wrong: The hepatitis B vaccine was designed specifically for "high-risk" groups, like drug users, prostitutes, and others. When these groups wouldn't cooperate with the hepatitis B vaccination programme, medical authorities decided that, suddenly, children "need" to be vaccinated, even though their risk of hepatitis B is small. But what makes this shift in focus more outrageous is that giving children the hepatitis B vaccination triples their risk of developing multiple sclerosis.
When researchers analyzed hepatitis B vaccination statistics from 163 individuals with multiple sclerosis and 1,604 "controls," they found a correlation between getting the hepatitis B vaccine and developing multiple sclerosis. Specifically, the results indicated that the risk of developing multiple sclerosis was three times higher in the group that was vaccinated against hepatitis B than in the group that wasn't vaccinated. By contrast, individuals given tetanus and influenza vaccinations had no significant extra risk of developing multiple sclerosis.
Of course, even though it was a Harvard study, it wasn't covered in any of the typical media outlets. It just isn't politically correct to challenge the current religion of vaccinating children against every hiccup and hangnail – regardless of whether it's safe or even necessary at all.
