Nutrition is important to keep the body running efficiently, and as preventative measures believed to reduce the risk of breast cancer and to reduce PMS symptoms. Healthy fats should not be overlooked. Artificial ingredients in foods are typically unhealthy.
Dietary fiber reduces the chances of cancer and other diseases. Fiber helps the body rid itself of toxins. Also, fiber is believed to be digested by bacteria to make anti-cancerous chemicals that enter the body. Fruits, vegetables, and green tea have also shown evidence to lower cancer risk.
What are some of the most nutritious foods?
Collard, mustard and turnip greens are a plentiful source of pre-vitamin A and minerals.
Red tomatoes are a source of lycopene which is a powerful antioxidant. The most concentrated source of lycopene is tomato sauce, over tomatoes and ketchup. Lycopene is a cartenoid that the body doesn't convert into vitamin A, so its use is as an antioxidant. Red and orange tomatoes contain βcarotene, and yellow tomatoes contain lutein. (Other parts of the tomato plant are toxic, as are many plants within the same genus.)
Beets contain betalains which provide it with bright colors and are potent antioxidants and anticarcinogens. There aren't as many details available on betalains as there are on other antioxidants. Beets are from the same species as swiss chards, and are in the same family of Amaranthaceae as spinach and quinoa.
Colored fruits and vegetables typically have varieties of antioxidants.
Seeds, nuts and avocados are healthy sources of fat, protein and vitamin E. Unrefined olive and coconut oils are healthy sources of fat.
Parboiled rice is a healthy substitute for refined rice. It is almost as nutritious as brown rice, without as much fiber. If brown rice is too hard, add more water and cook it longer until it splits so it's more soft and thus pallatable. Use raw sugar or agave syrup instead of refined sugar. Refined foods that are enriched are hardly any better than without being enriched. Heavily refined foods have empty calories, but they only have the potential to be healthy when taken with something else that's nutritious.
These nutritional suggestions are inconclusive. Be careful with vegetables from the Brassicaceae (mustard) and Amaranthaceae families that are known for increasing the odds of kidney stone formation.
How can they assist natural breast enlargement?
Fats, carbohydrates, proteins, minerals and vitamins help the body repair.
Use parboiled rice mixed with other healthy foods for calories and other nutrients, and use brown rice for lowering unwanted recent hormonal symptoms. Healthy fats can help stabilize recent negative effects from hormones, for instance when there's frequent urination. Saturated fats help balance effects of polyunsaturated fats. Avoid foods with hydrogenated oils in ingredient labels.
Fiber from fruits and vegetables help reduce the chances of cancer. Prunes, oats and brown rice are good sources of fiber (prunes and oats can unfortunately give one irritable bowel syndrome). Fruits and fruit juice are good sources of carbohydrates for physical activity.
Tomato products can likely help with breast health while herbs are having a hormonal effect on the breasts. Oatmeal with natural carbohydrates like raw (not refined) sugar should help with hip gains after exercises. As a side note, oatmeal can cause irritable bowel syndrome. It is undetermined if oatmeal or tomatoes will interfere with breast enhancement.
Foods, herbs and supplements that can cause breast shrinkage
Foods and drinks like oranges, orange juice, green tea, coffee, spicy peppers, tumeric, ginger and celery are healthy, but if taken within a few hours of a herbal combination for breast enhancement, they can cause breast shrinkage instead. Fresh garlic is another herb that can possibly contribute to breast shrinkage.
Spicy, warming or metabolic increasing herbs, supplements and foods such as tea, coffee, spicy peppers, tumeric, ginger, spicy mustard, wasabi and chocolate contribute to breast shrinkage, especially during proliferative phase, secretory phase, and within a day of taking a herb combination.
Foods, supplements and herbs that contain phytohormones can also interfere with breast enhancement, depending on the timing. Oranges and celery contain pytoestrogenic compounds, and this likely is what contributes to them causing breast shrinkage (through overloading an estrogenic response) when used after herb doses or during proliferative phase. Garlic exhibits androgenic activity after use, which is an attribute of phyto-progestogenic foods and herbs.
Some people affirm that coffee (on its own without an herbal schedule) is bad for nbe. Is this true?
That is coffee's reputation. Coffee has caffeine which causes weight loss. It also has phytohormones. With a herb schedule, coffee will cause breast shrinkage, because caffeine's weight loss effects will be localized there. If coffee is not taken near the time when herbs are taken, its effects won't be so dramatic. Coffee could be useful to cause breast perkiness with a minimal herb schedule, but this is not recommended at this time. Drinking coffee would not be good with a herb schedule. Higher metabolism from a lot of coffee by itself is also not helpful for breast enlargement.
Intestinal health
Papaya seeds kill intestinal parasites. Black walnut (Juglans nigra) hull as extract or powder also kills worms. Juglans can cause a hormone imbalance with excessive or extended use, so a small amount is recommended. Papaya seed can be washed down to compensate for its bitter taste.
You may feel an improvement related to appetite after taking papaya seed or a minimal amount of black walnut. Dietary fiber is recommended afterwards. Intestinal parasites steal a lot of nutrition.
There are other herbs that can get rid of intestinal parasites, but papaya seeds and black walnut hull are safer and highly effective. Pineapple also kills worms by breaking down their cell walls. Pumpkin seed only works against certain species of intestinal worms, and it doesn't completely destroy them. Wormwood kills intestinal worms, but it is easily toxic in moderate doses.
Water quality
Chloramine and chlorine are harsh on the body. Use a sink or portable drinking water chlorine filter for tap water, or refill bottles at a drinking water dispensary.
There has been something in the news about detectable levels of arsenic found in bottled water and fruit juices including from reputable stores in North America. Apart from contaminated water, arsenic can reach produce used in juices through poor farming methods often from countries which do not have adequate farming standards. Check the label origin of fruits used in juices.
Nutrients
Iron, B Vitamins, Vitamin C, Magnesium, Calcium and other vitamin and mineral intake is helpful to reduce PMS occurrences and to compensate for nutrient loss from menstruation. Many vitamins and minerals are antioxidants, which are important in their role for reducing the chances of cancer. A lot of antioxidant and anti-carcinogenic vitamins and minerals work in synergy together.
Recommended Daily Intake also known as Recommended Dietary Intake (RDI) is the minimum amount to prevent or avoid vitamin deficiencies. Daily Values (DV) which include either Adequate Intakes (AI) or Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDA) were a slight improvement by the USDA over RDI.
Optimum Daily Intake (ODI) is recommended as an optimal standard intended to replace RDI by the books The Real Vitamin and Mineral Book: The Definite Guide to Designing Your Personal Supplement Program and Optimal Muscle Performance and Recovery: Using the Revolutionary R4 System to Repair and Replenish Muscles for Peak Performance which more title information is available in the references section. Performance Daily Intake (PDI) was a previous metric that addressed similar needs that was an improvement over RDI: it hasn't gained traction, and has been replaced by ODI.
The following suggestions for adults are below the "Tolerable Upper Intake Limit" (UL), and are within ODI ranges as well as other sources listed in references. These also don't have issues according to sources used. Different forms of a vitamin or previtamin have different conversions between International Units (IU) and grams. Also, previtamins may not convert on a 1 to 1 ratio amount to their vitamin components. Please check amounts with your local recommendations. This is an inconclusive list.
There has been recent controversy about vitamin supplementation, in this case referring to outside of food sources, such as capsules. As for improving deficiencies, there's consensus that supplementation is necessary. Use fat soluble single vitamin supplements no more than twice a week, because they concentrate in cells where they're absorbed or digested. Vitamin C is water soluble, so it can be taken every day.
Water soluble vitamins
B Vitamins
B vitamins are needed for cellular function, and a few of them are antioxidants. Vitamin B6 can reduce PMS symptoms. Plant sources do not contain significant amounts of vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 can be obtained through dairy, eggs or supplements.
Vitamin C
Anti-oxidant. Vitamin C supplementation can be taken with the herb schedule. 150mg to 1,200mg.
Fat soluble vitamins
Vitamin A
Vitamin A is also known as retinol. In natural form, vitamin A and its previtamins (cartenoids) have antioxidant properties if not overdone. Alpha-carotene, beta-carotene, canthaxanthin, cryptoxanthin, lycopene, lutein, zeaxanthin are common cartenoids. Cartenoids, except lycopene, convert into vitamin A, by different units, when the body needs it. In excess, previtamin A aren't known to have toxicity issues like vitamin A.
Synthetic beta-carotene and synthetic vitamin A generally don't have beneficial antioxidant properties of natural form, and it might even be unhealthy. Other synthethic cartenoids perhaps lack the health benefits of natural previtamin A as well.
Mixed carotenoids from a variety of certain fruit and vegetable sources are best. Vitamin A intake should be below 1,000μg, and cartenoid amounts can exceed 3,500IU.
Vitamin D
Limit vitamin D supplements to complexes that include balanced magnesium and calcium. Do not take more than 900 IU, because more than this amount can cause calcium deposits in vital organs. For reference: therapeutic doses of Vitamin D have been double that number, but this is not needed here.
Vitamin E
Vitamin E is good against fibriotic breasts. It also preserves other vitamins and minerals. Natural vitamin E is more effective. Below 650IU is a suggested amount for Vitamin E.
Vitamin K
Anti-oxidant properties. It is also known for aiding with blood clots. Vitamin K is produced in the gut, so deficiencies aren't common. 80μg is a suggested amount of Vitamin K.
Minerals
Selenium
Has antioxidant properties. 40μg to 200μg.
Avoid or limit selenium supplements for breast enhancement, until after desired size is reached. Selenium is a powerful antioxidant, but it can cause weight loss which may interfere with breast enhancement.
Iron
Between 20mg and 30mg.
Zinc
Between 15mg and 25mg.
Iodine
150μg to 300μg.
Manganese
2mg to 8mg.
Calcium & Magnesium
Vitamin D helps the body use calcium and magnesium effectively. Phosphorus and magnesium require the body to need more calcium. Calcium 1,000mg to 1,500mg. Magnesium up to 350mg. Calcium and magnesium are better taken by a 2:1 ratio. Magnesium without adequate calcium can cause cramps and metabolic weight loss.
Convenient cooking
Table top kitchen appliances are convenient ways to prepare foods. Slow-cookers, rice-cookers and/or multi-cookers provide convenient ways to eat well, and save money. Plenty of food staples can be prepared with any of these alone.
Basic slow cookers, rice cookers
Rice/grain cookers can be used for more than what its name implies. There's some overlap over foods that can be cooked by slow cookers and rice cookers. Rice cookers are better for foods that need a specific moisture texture, like rice and pasta. Rice cookers can be used as a steamer for certain foods, which excess water will be evaporated. There's recipes for making breads in a rice cooker. Potatoes can also be cooked or parboiled in rice cookers. There are plenty of one-pot meals that can be cooked in slow cookers, and staple foods which can be prepared in rice cookers.
In the right picture is a generic brand of slow cooker with a ceramic pot. This one costs under $15. A comparable rice cooker costs about the same price. Mamy rice and slow cookers must be manually turned off or unplugged approximately after food is done: some rice cookers stay on the warm setting. Automatic shutoff slow cookers and rice cookers cost more.
Automated rice cookers
Rice cookers with automated features are more convenient. They can be set to delay the start of cooking, and turn off automatically after a given time. While not exactly mutlicookers, some have an additional steam function. Steam functions are conenient, for when you want to cook foods without evaporating additional water away, or cooking for an undetermined amount of time until additional water is boiled away. Steam functions are ideal to set a specific amount of time for steaming, parboiling, cooking chicken or making teas.
There's also Induction Heater (IH) rice cookers which are usually the fancier higher priced ones.
Multicookers
Multicookers can have functions of grain/rice-cookers, steamers and slow-cookers, as well as other functions like saute and cake baker. These have convenient functions, such as automatically setting to warming mode when the food is done cooking. Multicookers may need more care than basic rice or slow cookers, as they don't aways last as long due to wear and tear of electronics within the door lids. The one in the image is a multi-cooker without pressure cooker functions, as I consider pressure cookers to be easily dangerous.
Induction cooktops
Induction cooktops require the right cookware to work. Cast iron, cast iron coated with enamel/porcelain, and other specialized cookware will work with it. Cookware must have an induction symbol on the packaging for it to be expected to work with an induction cooktop. These cost more than slow cookers. This is for those who want to spend more time cooking.
Comparison to traditional stove tops
Portable induction cooktops, slow cookers and rice cookers are safer to use than traditional gas stoves, traditional electric stoves, and instant/pressure cookers. Too many times, have people forgotten to turn off traditional cooktops, and that is a safety hazard. There's significantly less fire danger with slow cookers, rice cookers and portable induction cooktops than with traditional stove tops. Instant or pressure cookers require more care to not be dangerous, as they cook at high pressures. Modern pressure cookers and cookware have many built in safety features, yet they must be well taken care of and inspected before use. Be sure to take precautions, and be sure the power cord is plugged in higher than the appliances, or has cord hanging below the electrical socket, so potential water doesn't find its way to the power socket. Follow the instructions in the portable cook appliance manuals.
