The following press release was posted to PR Newswire yesterday {Support National Breast Cancer Awareness Month with a Scoop of Ice Cream Dreyer's Grand Ice Cream and the National Alliance of Breast Cancer Organizations (NABCO) are uniting to educate Americans about good breast health during National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Through the end of October, Dreyer's will feature pink ribbons on its Grand Light, No Sugar Added and Fat Free No Sugar Added ice creams, as well as Frozen Yogurt, Fat Free Frozen Yogurts and Sherbet. Consumers who scoop up a carton can help raise up to $250,000 for NABCO and its nationwide education and information programs that encourage women to seek early detection.} Many people feel that methodologies employed in early detection (repeated x-ray mammographies) are a leading cause of breast cancer. Recent studies prove that breast cancer early detection x-rays do not affect breast cancer incidence or lessen death rates. What hurts so much is that the cause is being promoted as the means to discovering a cure. Who in their right mind will buy ice cream to prevent breast cancer? American women, that's who. Please print this column and make a flyer. Hand it out at your supermarket. Stick it in somebody's cart or in the windshield of their car. Place it in the ice cream section. Twelve pounds of milk are required to produce one pound of ice cream. Each sip of cow's milk contains estrogen, which has been identified as a key factor in promoting breast cancer cell growth. Milk also contains a powerful growth hormone called insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I). There are hundreds of millions of different proteins in nature, and only one hormone that is identical between any two species. That powerful growth hormone is IGF-I, and it is an exact match in the cow's body and the human body. Drink one glass of cow's milk and a female doubles the amount of free circulating IGF-I in her body. Eat one portion of ice cream and one consumes 12 times the amount of this powerful cancer accelerator. IGF-I survives digestion and has been identified as the key factor in breast cancer's growth. If you believe that breast feeding " works " to protect lactoferrins and immunoglobulins from digestion (and benefit the nursing infant), you must also recognize that milk is a hormonal delivery system. By drinking cow's milk or eating ice cream, one delivers IGF-I in a bioactive form to the body's cells. When IGF-I from cow's milk alights upon an existing cancer... __________ " Human Insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I) and bovine IGF-I are identical. Both contain 70 amino acids in the identical sequence. " Judith C. Juskevich and C. Greg Guyer. SCIENCE, vol. 249.
