Are Mammograms Causing More Breast Cancer? – Discussion

Dec 18, 2009 by TacticularCancer.com

That’s what women are essentially doing when they receive mammograms. Each year, as they dutifully get their mammograms, they are exposing themselves to the very kind of radiation that causes cancer, practically guaranteeing they will eventually be diagnosed with cancer. (At which point the oncologist will say something like, “See? Good thing we do these mammograms every year, or we wouldn’t have caught this tumor!”)

The false cancer slogan that “early detection saves lives” would be more accurately modified to read: Repeated exposure to radiation causes cancer.

More destructive than X-raying your feet!

Did you know that in the 1940′s, shoe stores used to have their own X-ray machines? Customers would try on a shoe, stick their foot in the X-ray fluoroscope machine, and see on the viewing screen how their bones fit in the shoes.

It seemed like a really neat idea, and it sold a lot of shoes. But at the same time, it also dosed customers’ feet with an astonishing 20 – 100+ rems per minute of radiation. As you might suspect, a lot of these shoe store customers developed very serious health problems with their feet, including DNA mutations and cancerous lesions.

Even long after the radiation risk of such shoe-fitting machines was known to be extremely harmful, doctors stayed silent about it. The machines were never banned, either… they were quietly phased out in the 1950′s after raising the cancer risks of literally millions of people.

Mammograms are the modern-day version of the X-ray shoe-fitting machine. They’re represent a harmful, cancer-causing technology that people mistakenly think offers some benefit for them. But every time you use the machine, your risk of cancer goes up another notch. Meanwhile, just like in the 1940′s, most conventional doctors stay silent about the cancer risks resulting from such radiation! (But more and more informed doctors are finally speaking out against mammography…)

If you were an evil genius who wanted to design and manufacture a cancer-causing machine, it would be difficult to beat the present-day mammography machine. It exposes human tissue to high-powered radiation that, if repeated often enough, practically guarantees cancer will eventually develop. In one sense, it’s sort of a “slow suicide machine” that takes years (or decades) to complete its work on your body. But before you die, you get to spend your life savings on “treatments” that will leave you bankrupt just before they leave you dead.

That’s the whole point of the cancer industry, after all: To maximize profits from cancer. Mammography is a key piece of the puzzle in accomplishing precisely that.

Repeat business

The truth is, mammography offers no net saving in lives at all. In fact, the procedure harms far more women than it helps.
But at the same time, it’s a “perfect weapon” for generating lucrative repeat business. If you’re an oncologist, the best way to ensure you’ll have a cancer patient to treat at age 55 is to start exposing them to radiation at age 40 (or earlier). It’s sort of like a diabetes clinic offering free candy to children: At some point, after they eat enough processed sugar, they’ll come back as repeat customers suffering from diabetes.

That’s why the cancer industry freaked out when a U.S. govt. task force issued its new cancer screening guidelines. All of a sudden, the cancer industry realized it would lose a lot of repeat business if the screenings stopped. So they lobbied hard for some sort of reversal.
