Dear Ms Weed,
Thank you for sharing online your article about cleansing and caring for the liver.
Can you please shed a bit more light on the thought to avoid essential oils because they can impair liver function?
These particular oils are tested by Dr Robert Pappas, ensuring purity and efficacy.
My friend has liver issues and has begun using an oil blend with Tangerine peel, Rosemary flower/leaf, Geranium plant, Juniper Berry, and Cilantro leaf.
Many thanks,
Nicole
Hello Nicole,
Susun would never talk about cleansing the liver! Loving and nourishing the liver, yes :) We want to support the liver in helping it to perform optimally by giving it nourishment not by cleansing it.
As for the essential oil usage- Try removing all essential oils from your life for a period of time and see how your body responds. Then reintroduce them and see how your body responds.
If you would like to ask Susun about this directly, please call her Blog Talk show any Tuesday evening from 7:30-9:00pm EST. Susun answers 90 minutes of health questions followed by a 30 minute interview 1-646-929-2463 - When calling in with a question, make sure to press one to speak with Susun.
Thank you for writing in.
blessings,
Kim

Five easy things you can do now to help Prevent Breast Cancer
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. But many women are calling it Breast Health Awareness Month! Rather than focusing on breast cancer, we choose to concentrate on keeping our breasts healthy through wise lifestyle and dietary choices.
The following tips may amaze you, since the actions and foods they suggest run counter to many alternative views of cancer prevention. They are supported with strong research, however - from the lab, with animals, and in long-term human studies. Thus, each of these tips has a solid scientific basis, unlike the assertions made by those intent on selling you their opinions and products.
Embarking on even one of these suggestions will definitely lower your risk of breast cancer. Using them all is even better. And as a special treat, I have added three extras. Look for lots more tips for keeping your breasts healthy in my book Breast Cancer? Breast Health! The Wise Woman Way, recommended by many oncologists and breast health specialists including Dr. Susan Love. And please visit my special breast health website: www.breasthealthbook.com
1. Be more active
Evidence continues to accumulate that a vigorous lifestyle is one of the best ways to cut breast cancer risk. A study of 20,624 Norwegian women found those who exercised or worked out regularly cut their breast cancer risk by 72%. (NEJM, 5/1/1997)
For breast health I walk every day, take a weekly yoga class, and do tai chi twice a week.
2. Eat more unrefined seed foods
All seeds provide phytoestrogens. Women who eat the most phytoestrogenic foods are four times less likely to be diagnosed with breast cancer than those who eat the least. "No study has shown a degree of risk reduction similar to that found for phytoestrogens ..." (Lancet, 10/4/1997)
Whole grains such as wheat, rice, corn, kasha, millet, and quinoa are unrefined seed foods. Beans such as lentils, black beans, pinto beans, lima beans, and chickpeas are unrefined seed foods. Nuts including peanuts, walnuts, almonds, and pecans are unrefined seed foods. And edible seeds such as sesame, sunflower, and pumpkin are unrefined seed foods. Fruits and vegetables that are eaten with their seeds - such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, kiwi fruit, summer squash, tomatoes, and cucumbers - count as unrefined seed foods. Even seeds used as seasonings count, such as cumin, coriander, caraway, anise, and dill seeds.
For breast health, I have replaced all refined carbohydrates - including white rice and white/unbleached flour products such as pasta, bread, cookies, crackers, pretzels, bagels, donuts, and cakes - with whole grain products.
