http://www.TCMAnticancer.ca TCM stands for Traditional Chinese medicine…
I went there, & had a quickie consult with a lady doctor…
Turns out, smoothness in breast lumps is a very important desirable trait…
I knew this but I DIDN’T REALLY KNOW THIS…
You know what I mean?
Anyways, if yours feels bumpy, here’s what to do…
Stop taking the melatonin!!!
I knew melatonin was wrong, but I just really loved the sleeping part of it…
Melatonin is great for feeding your Pineal gland, & your Colon, & it is antiseizure, antiepilepsy, antiCrohns disease, antiIBS, antiinsomnia, antifluorine, antipolio, antimeningitis, antiangelsyndrome…
However…It is NOT anticancer & it is certainly not TCManticancer…
If you feel your lump yourself or get a friend to feel it, & it feels bumpy instead of smooth, stop taking the melatonin…
Ok…I am not going to complicate things by saying anything more…Though I could…
Thank you, http://www.TCMAnticancer.ca for helping me to figure out my smoothness problems…
I am going to be so smooth from now on, promise!!!
“I was taking melatonin & it caused the breast lump to palpate(feel) gravelly & textured…I had this checked with a TCM traditional Chinese medicine doctor…She explained that a desireable lump should feel smooth not textured…Anyway, I quit the melatonin & the lump became smooth…”
Newer comments(I was answering some questions):
Ok…If you have a known paradoxical effect to Melatonin…I would have quit at that point…(paradoxical effect means it does the opposite of what it is supposed to do)…
In terms of it inducing menopause or being opposite to estrogen, that is also a paradoxical association…Estrogen boosts melatonin down the line, which indicates they are friends…To imply melatonin lowers estrogen is a pretty far fetch, though it is mentioned in the article(an article I am not going to link to, because that might confuse people) in several ways…
Chemically melatonin is similar to Bismuth, charcoal, like soot, or the stuff you get from barbecuing foods…Which makes me wonder at its core how it could be a detox thing…Studies on barbecued food, the charcoal grit, are pretty prevalent…
But charcoal is also used for poisoning(to grab a poison you have ingested & encapsulate it safely)…
I have seen many of the Cancer articles that love melatonin(despite me not agreeing with them, I do read them)…
The night shift argument is very loose in my mind- there are just so many other correlatives that could come into play…I do think sleep is important…Good deep dream sleep…
I’ve been using the Holosync brainwave entrainment programs to settle my brainwaves…(iTunes app but there is a free demo tape online too- you listen with earphones…They really work…The full audio set is $179 I think though(there is an easy payment plan though), so I have been stalling on buying it)…
I am a little hesistant with this information you have linked to(an article that says melatonin is anticancer) because…
1) Melatonin has been shown to delay menopause not induce it, & I am confused at where you got that information
2) probiotics increase Phosphorus, Ceruloplasmin, Estrogen, & I don’t think that they should be prescribed across the board(especially to someone who is fighting cancer)
3)You didn’t respond well to melatonin, & are confused yourself, even before I stuck my nose in it(says that a supplement is maybe not for you if you are not sure about why you are taking it anyways)…
4)I know that melatonin increased size & texture of my own breast lump(in pictures)
5)I know when I stopped, I had immediate improvement(also in pictures)
6) I know that soot & charcoal & Bismuth are not anticancer usually & melatonin is most similar chemically- they both handle excess Fluorine in the Pineal Gland…But,
7) I will examine this closer & promise to write about it further…
My mother who is a survivor said immediately when I spoke out loud about this just now :
” Of course it is not anticancer”
She is old school…It is ” new school” who are putting forth these newer(controversial) possibilities…
Myself, I only touch it if I crave the delicious sleep it gives me…But I know I am ” cheating”… I cheat on many things…But I know when I am…I don’t see it as a detox…However, the way charcoal is antipoison might be a factor…Perhaps the melatonin is grabbing poisons, which then allows the body to function better…
Also in cases of over fluoridation of water supply( especially in water that night shift workers drink) perhaps it is creating balance…Nurses may be exposed to intense fluorine levels in hospitals, not to mention other powerful cleaning fluids…Might explain how the melatonin works- it is correcting a severe imbalance, deficiency…
Here’s the study about melatonin & menstrual cycle…( even they think it’s anticancer! But none of these studies really explain the mechanism of their conclusions…)
Worth more study…I’m on it! Thanks…
Note from Sari Grove:I will update this post as I find out more…
High doses of melatonin can have a contraceptive effect! In Europe they actually use melatonin as a contraceptive…Which means, if you have been taking high doses of melatonin, & your period has ceased, it is possible that that is not menopause but the melatonin stopping the period…Theoretically the periods might return with cessation of melatonin…
