God loves us! He knows the end from the very beginning. It is late in the day and too many suffer because we have not done our job. God gave us a tool to reach out to the world, the right arm of the gospel, the health message. In that message we were given a lot of light. Two of the important truths entrusted to us as a people are that germs cause cancer and that the diseases of animals, including cancer, is transmitted to people through eating flesh and eggs, and drinking milk. This information was given to us over a hundred years ago with the warning that "soon" there would be no safety in eating eggs and milk because disease was increasing rapidly in animals. "Soon" came many years ago.
Today, in many countries dairy cows are infected with Bovine Leukemia Virus (BLV). Yes, a Leukemia virus! And yes, it does indeed cause cancer in the cows. What is done with the cows that have this virus? They are milked until there is a danger that they will produce tumors, then they are butchered. They are milked until then and in their milk is the Bovine Leukemia Virus. Not all cows in most dairies have the virus, but the milk from infected and not infected cows is mixed together. Much of the dairy in many countries contains Bovine Leukemia Virus.
Is this enough information for most to take heed to the risk? No. Most will continue to feed their children dairy products even knowing this. It is the result of a fallen human nature and a corrupt education. The information I am sharing is easily found, it is not hidden from view any more than Mad Cow Disease is.
Why do I choose to discuss dairy in this Breast Cancer topic? I think that there is evidence to suggest that a cancer virus can cause different kinds of cancer. It appears that Bovine Leukemia Virus may be able to cause breast cancer.From what I have seen, there is a good case that can be made for this connection.
There are very few medical studies that look for such a connection that I am aware of. Epidemiological studies are a good source, but they do not pinpoint the science involved. But, we have one study that I know of where the they looked for a connection between the Bovine Leukemia Virus and breast cancer. Out of 39 breast cancer patients in the study, over half had Bovine Leukemia Virus in their breast tissue.
Yes, in their breast tissue. And, it may come as a great shock to many of you that most Americans have antibodies to BLV. We have not known these things, but now we may. It is also of interest that infected cow milk can cross specie barriers. Here is a little information on two chimps that died in less than a year from Leukemia after being fed cow milk.
Erythroleukemia and Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia were diagnosed in two of six infant chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) fed from birth on unpasteurized milk from cows naturally infected with the bovine C-type virus. The chimpanzees died at 34 and 45 weeks of age after a 5 to 6-week illness characterized by lethargy, anorexia, leukocytosis, anemia, and progressive pneumonia. Blast cells and immature myeloid cells were prominent in bone marrow specimens and were present, although less conspicuous, in peripheral blood smears. At autopsy, both animals showed infiltration of neoplastic cells in the bone marrow, spleen, lymph nodes, and, to a much lesser extent, in the lungs, liver, and kidneys. Four chimpanzees in the milk-fed group and all six in the control group are alive and apparently healthy. The experimental chimpanzees were all housed together, but only the two affected animals received milk during the immediate neonatal period from cow BF044, our most reliable and abundant source of bovine C-type virus. Neither leukemia nor P. carinii pneumonia has been reported previously in chimpanzees. Electron microscopic and serological studies failed to demonstrate the presence of bovine C-type virus in either the milk-fed or control animals studied. However, the two leukemic chimpanzees died before their buffy-coat cells could be examined. source
