Kelp/ increased thyroid and breast cancer

[Guest guest]

Hello, I am new to the group and trying to play catch up a bit. I am

intrigued about the notes on thyroid, not sure if I understand. Should

state that I was diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer a

year and a-half ago, told I only had three years to live and that was

with continuous chemo. Prior to the diagnosis I had been taking a lot

of kelp for energy. In trying alternatived for cancer, reading about

soy interfering with thryoid function and recommendations for fermented

soy like miso of which Im still not sure about. Anyway came across

tons of info about not only the link with estrogen to cancer, but

thyroid function stating that not only did increased circulating

thyroid increase the risk of breast cancer, but aggressive forms. That

women who with a tendency to HYPOthyroidism had a DECREASED risk for

breast cancer. I did read that progresterone cream if using soy was a

better way to balance the thyroid and it did help with my energy

level. I am just way wary of any form of thyroid, natural or

otherwise. Just wanted to share. Donna
