Do you have history of dental issues? Do you suffer with constipation? Did you reach puberty at an earlier or later stage than others? These are just some of the precursors to developing breast cancer. Find out why cancer cells form in our body and what treatment strategies we use in Eastern medicine to prevent cancer. There is no doubt that cancer is a serious physical illness and considered a major burden worldwide today. Although incidences of cancer may be reaching historically high numbers, cancer is not a modern disease. The earliest Chinese medical record on breast cancer was published in 375 during the East Jin dynasty by a famous doctor Hong Ge (281-341). With its long history, there is great depth of knowledge in the pathogenesis, etiology & treatment strategies for cancer in Eastern medicine. Over the years of working in the health field, I have witnessed the paralyzing terror associated with this disease. My hope in writing this article is to bring more insight and understanding of cancer based on Eastern medicine to help scale down the sense of impending doom related to this disease so that we may then take more ownership and control over our health.
