A reliable substitute for mammography? Part 1
April 23, 2019
Thermography, a controversial imaging technique, is the subject of today’s interview with Dr. Kristine Blanche, owner and operator the Integrative Healing Center of Long Island and New York City.

What information does it render about the health and functionality of, not just the breasts, but other body parts? How does thermography offer women a breast health “report card”? If abnormalities are found, but no cancer is detected with standard imaging techniques, are there natural ways women can optimize their breast health to prevent cancer? What roles for diet, exercise, supplements, stress reduction? What are xenoestrogens, and how can women minimize their exposure? Click HERE for part 2.
