Controversial new cancer cure referenced from Old Testament and modern hormonal research: Some lucky dog in this household gets hamburger microwaved and I save the grease in the refrigerator until I have about a small cottage cheese carton full separated from the meat juice. I melt this and add an equal amount of wild bird seed and when solidified hang it outside in a mesh onion bag as a treat for winter birds (this stuff melts in warm weather). I've read that some hormones are stored in lipids (fat) and immediately my mind started to wonder: Does modern research substantiate 5,000 year old folklore contained in the Old testament? Field trials are lacking but if you know of someone affected by cancer you may suggest a 5,000 year old folk remedy of applying a salve of meat grease to the affected area to see if that form of hormonal therapy supplies any relief of symptoms.
Maybe someone can advise me why this post was removed from the Women's issues board. Was 'Free speech' compromised?
No, maybe someone took offense at the quotes from the Old Testament. I was attempting something like a correlation between modern science and ancient wisdom. Some may see it as proselytizing.
Ah, perhaps. So how does the meat grease bird treat relate to breast cancer? Did it just get you thinking? I question the safety of the type of hormones that would be assimilated through the skin in your suggested salve. For instance, the hormone estrogen can actually promote the growth of certain cancer cells.
Cortisol is a lipid based hormone that may be the product in Cortisone (registered trademark) cream sold as medication. Caution is well due. Altho Wiki references on Hormone and Apoptosis suggest a benefit, risk of Ischemia (cross referenced with OT) recommends not leaving the salve on for more than a few hours.
