Bioidentical Hormones - U.S. Senate Special Committee on Aging

the grand scheme of things, old women - aren't women at all past a certain point. If this
phase-shift happens quickly- say after decades of childbearing and breastfeeding --some
of us make it through it without getting cancer. But, if it takes too long, we're targeted for
transformation, because cancer is an evolutionary function in nature. All of the genes
active in cancer are active at only one other time in life. They are all switched on in the
high estrogen/low progesterone state of the first nine weeks of life in utero when we are
neither man nor woman. Since nature abhors a vacuum and is about duality, we must be
one or the other -- man or woman.
We can't remain in limbo for more than nine weeks or nature will take over,
trying out combinational strategies in an effort to make us become "something". Cancer
is no plague on mankind, it is life, it's just the new you. It's a group of cells turned on to
rapid unchecked growth by genes that are exactly the same in fetal tissue. That's why
they call them fetal oncogenes in research.
That's also why cancer isn't something you can kill like a germ with an antibiotic.
You can't bum it, poison it or take it away because it is us -- or at least what's become of
us in the absence of performing a role in nature. Cancer is actually the genetic creativity
shown in nature when an organism ceases to fit into-The Plan.
Of rn'rce, a lot of us die froali this evolutionary tunction, but many of us live with
it, too. 93% of elderly men show some degree of prostate cancer on autopsy, but it's not
listed as the cause of death. Most of us will likely die with, not of, some form of cancer.
Cancer is only transformation, unless it kills you first.
I believe there is an alternative. We can turn back the clock with the products
nature has to offer. The catch is, how do we prove it? You see only the bio-identical
molecules do this. The product from Wyeth does not. The hormone receptors can tell the
difference. The bio-identicals need to be compounded from bulk materials and left in
their unpatentable form. All that means is that the drug companies won't make as much
money as they would by turning it into a drug. That also means there's no money for
research because drug companies foot the bills for scientists and those drug companies
will never be able to patent a "natural substance" and their already patented drugs don't
work the same way on almost any system in a woman's body. Oh, and then there's the
impending Kennedy, Burr, Roberts Bill that could literally put an end to it all.
