An Important Note About the Connection Between Thyroid Cancer and X-rays and Mammograms
Hello Community,
Several friends of mine did pass on the Dr. Oz information below to me about the connection between Thyroid cancer and x-rays and Mammograms. I received this interesting email several times, which I took as a sign that I wanted to share two local addresses for Thermography – which would replace the Mammograms x-rays at your regular doctor. I learned about Dr. Saputo, M.D. in Walnut Creek from my Holistic School two years ago and have been going there. Here is a link to his website to learn some more facts about Thermography.
The other address is http://www.eastbaythermography.com and they are in Danville. I have not checked them out in person, only found them in our local magazine “Natural awakenings” from January 2012 which I picked up in front of Whole Foods Market.
Gesundheit,
Angela
Thyroid cancer
On Wednesday, Dr. Oz had a show on the fastest growing cancer in women, Thyroid cancer. It was a very interesting program and he mentioned that The increase could possibly be related to the use of dental x-rays and Mammograms. He demonstrated that on the apron the dentist puts on you for Your dental x-rays there is a little flap that can be lifted up and wrapped around your neck. Many dentists don’t bother to use it. Also, there is something called a “thyroid guard” for use during mammograms. By coincidence, I had my yearly mammogram yesterday. I felt a little silly, but I asked about the guard and sure enough, the technician had one in a drawer. I asked why it wasn’t routinely used. Answer: “I don’t know you have to ask for it.” Well, if I hadn’t seen the show, how would I have known to ask? We need to pass this on to our daughters, nieces, mothers and all our Female friends and husbands tell your wives!! I just did, now you send It on to your list. Someone was nice enough to forward this to me. I hope you pass this on To your friends and family.
