Nutrition Know-How Sunday

As Skool group owners and entrepreneurs, we want to be on our best game health-wise. Unwanted health challenges can derail us.

Nutrition Know-How Sunday is something I just introduced in my group. Wanted to share it here as well, cuz I know Skool group owners value their health immensely!!

This Sunday, let's talk about....Breast Cancer Prevention

Did you know that 1 in 8 women will develop invasive breast cancer in their lifetimes?

Since many of us are women, and ALL of us have women in our lives, I thought this would be a good topic to delve into this Nutrition Know-How Sunday.

Below are some simple things the women in your life can do to decrease their risk of breast cancer.

1. ) Eat lots of vegetables containing sulforaphanes-

Broccoli sprouts are highest in sulforaphanes.

Broccoli, cauliflower, Brussel sprouts, arugula, kale, and radishes also have sulforaphanes. Basically, all cruciferous veggies.

These compounds support our body's natural detoxification pathways and have been shown to inhibit the reproduction of cancer cells.

You can learn more about sulforaphanes here.

2) Eat a cup of mushrooms every day! Any kind, edible or medicinal, as a supplement, take your pick. Just don't pick your nose!

Mushrooms have been shown to have anticancer properties, specifically against breast cancer. Maybe it's more of a correlation than a causation, but if you enjoy mushrooms, it can't hurt!

You can read more about it in this study.

3.) Focus on daily detox- anything you can do to keep your lymphatic system moving is great cancer prevention and is sure to enhance your quality of life!

Exercise and joyful movement, deep breathing, time in nature, grounding by walking outside barefoot or lying on the ground, infrared saunas, dry brushing, oil pulling, meditation/prayer to detox the mind, yoga, etc.

4.) Play with breasts, aka breast massage, or allow trusted loved ones to do that.

Did she just say that? Yes, she did!

Breast massage supports your lymphatic system with keeping things moving and prevents fluid build-up.

I got my mammogram last week and was literally told to go home and do breast massage due to some fluid build-up that's causing pain. Massage keeps things moving well.

5) Avoid processed sugars and processed flours as much as possible. Highly processed foods are unnatural, they don’t exist in nature.

And they can create unnatural cell proliferation as cancer cells thrive in a high sugar environment.

According to the GIF below, oatmeal may also help? Haven't researched that one, but you're welcome to check it out and share your findings in the comments.

Have a breast-full Sunday...ahem, I mean rest-full Sunday!
