Various cultures around the world have long known the enhancing and healing effects of herbs on breasts. Now the medical community is getting in on the act too.

Research at the acclaimed M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas, has motivated interest in the use of tumeric in both the prevention and treatment of several cancers. A 1999 study published in Cancer Letters showed the herb’s ability to contain the spread of cancer when used in conjunction with other breast cancer treatments.

Dr. Andrew Weil, researcher, author and head of integrative medicine at the University of Arizona, recommends diets rich in estrogenic herbs and foods to women. In his research, Dr. Weil notes that Asian women who consume 20 times more phytoestrogens than western women, have one-fifth of the breast cancers than western women – and experience fewer hysterectomies.
