4 Februarys, mS To your health In recent years there has been written about coffee and with various diseases. One of these is fibrocystv breast disease — the most common cause ol lumps and tenderness in the female breast. Caffeine stimulates the central nervous system, that is, allays drowsiness and increases the Bow of thought. Although caffeine certainly qualifies as a drug, the maior source of caffeine (or most is food; namely, coffee, tea, cocoa, and Legend credits the discovery of caffeine's benefits to a prior of an Arabian convent. Shepherds reported that goats would not sleep, but frolicked all night after eating berries from the coffee plant. Hoping to rouse himself for the long prayerful nights, the prior brewed a drink using those berries. Studies show no relation between caffeine and breast disease Fibre chara tenzed by multiple benign cysts or lumps in the breast that may be tender or painful. These cysts are believed to result from an exaggerated breast tissue response induced by the natural ebb and flow of ovanan hormones. Indeed, rapid fluctuation in the size of breast masses as well as increased tenderness during the premenstrual phase of the cycle characterize the prob¬ lem. Cysts are usually of greatest concern because they can be confusing during breast self-examination and often need to be biopsied in order to distinguish from Furthermore, women with cystic breasts are thought to be at somewhat higher risk for the development of breast In 1979, an Ohio surgeon. Dr. John Minton, published an article about the alleged causal association between coffee drinking and the development of fibrocys¬ tic disease and its prompt disappearance with abstinence from caffeine. The popular press eagerly informed American women to abstain from caffeine to avoid or eliminate fibrocystic breast The findings of subsequent investiga¬ tors have not confirmed that association. This is not meant to imply that Dr. Min- ton's findings were falsified, but point to weaknesses in the study design: if you take a group of women with fibrocystic breast disease, eliminate all caffeine from their diet and most of them experience disease remission, it docs not necessarily follow that this change was due to caf¬ feine, particularly when you consider the fluctuating nature of this disease. In fact, a study following Dr. Mmton's work divided the subjects with one group continuing and the other discAr.ttnuing their caffeine intake. This study found similar improvements in fibrocystic breast disease in both groups over time. The investigators did mention, how¬ ever, that many of those subjects who had discontinued caffeine reported markedly decreased breast tenderness. In light of the studies reported to date, caffeine does not appear to play a major role in fibrocystic breast disease. It seems reasonable then for those with fibrocystic breast disease to eliminate caffeine from their diet for four to six weeks to see if there is diminished breast tenderness, but for those without a problem, there is no clear evidence of an increased incidence of disease in caffeine drinkers. Any student who has a question or concern about breast lumps or breast self-exam is encouraged to visit the Stu¬ dent Health Center for information, nd/oranexam Wind Ensemble, Jazz Band travel to Japan Another group of musicians from CSUF will add to the university's interna¬ tional exposure when the Wind Ensemble and Jazz Band travel to-Japan in May to perform for the 1983 Japanese Band Directors Clinic and in a series of concerts. Dr. Lawrence Sutherland conductor of the ensemble, said the Japanese Band Directors Association and the Yamaha Company extended the invitation after considering the CSUF groups for the past two years. Dr. Sutherland said the CSUF band was chosen by the Japanese on the basis ordmgs produced during the past six years and conversations with respected U.S. directors who have heard the band at conferences and meetings. Performances at the clinic May 13-17 will include a large amount of new music written for band during the past year, said Dr. Sutherland, as the CSUF group serves as clinician in matters of musical interpretation and style. Several concerts featuring mucic spe cially prepared for the tour will be recorded by CBS-Sony for a disc to be released in the U.S. and Japan. Concerts before and after the clinic are planned in some of the finest concert halls including the Mushashino Academy in Tokyo, Fresno's sister city of Kochi, Osaka, and the capital of the sister state of California, Shizouka. A 45-minute show will be filmed in Tokyo for NHK Television. The Band C rectors Clinic will be held at the Yamaha Music Camp in MENU- NO-SATO, Japan, and the Yamaha Music Company will provide the band with lodging, meals and ground transpor tation for the five day program. ■ Dr. Sutherland said other travel cosfs for the 65-member Wind Ensemble during the May 7-21 tour will be defrayed through a local fund-raising effort and monies provided through university He said the prestige of being selected for the Japanese event enhances the rep¬ utation the university has already created through its annual Collegiate Wind Band Festival. Downbeat magazine gave the CSUF Wind Ensemble its Outstanding Perfom- ance award in 1980 for its rendition of the Milhaud Suite Francaise, and College Band Directors National Association fea¬ tured the Wind Ensemble and Jazz Band also have been invited to be invited to be featured durmg the 1983 Western Inter national Band Conference.
