question is basically addressed to women. Women that
are doing a meritorious job of determining the best
foods to put into their bodies. They are not only
determining which foods offer the most benefits
nutritionally, but which foods should be bypassed
due to toxins and pesticides and unknown chemicals
that the foods may carry with them from their
processing, storage, and preparation.
These women are already very aware
that these foreign items that end up in their food
chain can cause many problems with their health. I
am specifically speaking today about their breast
health. They already know these chemicals cause
breast cancer.
By making these good choices in what
they eat, they are minimizing their exposure to
foods that contain harmful chemicals. They also know
that they are subjected to chemicals in their
environment… in or on the food they eat, from the
containers their food may be purchased or stored in,
the clothes they wear, the fabric their clothes are
made from, the air they breath outside, the air they
breath from inside their automobile (including the
vinyl off-gassing from the upholstery), from the
plastic kitchen utensils they use every day, the
cosmetics they use… and so many other bad items in
their lives. One thing that they are aware of: they
are eliminating a lot of those toxins… but they will
never be able to avoid all of the chemicals that
they live with.
They still have another wave of
defense, inside their bodies… their marvelous
bodies, with their miraculous immune and lymphatic
systems… but are they ALLOWING their own bodies to
eliminate those chemicals that do get into their
bodies? Are the articles of clothing that they wear
through the day working to defeat their efforts
spent on making good food choices?
When those toxins and chemicals get
into their bodies, they may tend to accumulate in
various locations of their bodies, and if they are allowed to linger too long, those toxins and
chemicals will eventually start to affect their DNA in their
body cells. All cells in their bodies will duplicate and replace
themselves eventually, some in a matter of a few weeks and
others may be closer to replacing themselves once a year. Each
time each cell duplicates (that’s called mitosis if you
remember your high school biology), it makes a complete copy of
itself, including making a whole duplicate copy of its DNA. The
DNA is what tells that cell what it is, and what it does. It
gives the cell its identity and its instructions to do its
individual task in the body. A breast cell has DNA that says
that it is a breast cell, even if it is removed from the breast.
A pathologist can identify that cell as coming from a breast.
Breast Cancer is nothing more than a breast cell
that has had its DNA altered by some biological ‘accident’,
causing the cell to function in an errant manner. Even though it
is now known as a malignancy… a breast cancer cell, it can still
be identified as a breast cell. However, it no long acts as a
good breast cell should act. And these ‘accidents’ happen all
the time.
If a breast cancer cell leaves the mass (or
breast lump) in which it was developed, it will travel to
another location in the body… probably carried there by the
lymphatic fluids that circulate throughout the body. If that
breast cancer cell lodges in another organ, such as the lung,
then it is still breast cancer… in the lung. Even though it is a
breast cell (modified now), it is a malignant breast cell and it
will grow into a new mass in the lung. Once that cell moves to a
new location, that is referred to as it has metastasized, or
exhibiting the condition of metastasis. In lay terms… The
Cancer Is Spreading.
The toxins and chemicals and other negative items
actually enter our bodies and look for places to sit and hide
more than we know, but a healthy body with a healthy immune
system and an uncompromised lymphatic system usually will carry
that impurity all the way to one of many lymph nodes, and then
to other organs where it is removed, and rejected from the body
through perspiration, urine, or feces. It does not have a chance
to sit and cause trouble.
Why do women (and men) end up with breast cancer
cells in the first place? It is thought that when those toxins
and chemicals that got inside their skin (possibly ingested
through the mouth, or absorbed through the skin) got flushed
away by the lymphatic fluids, then the person did not end up
with cancer. But if the toxins found a place to lollygag and sit
still for a while, no matter where that is, the toxins were next
to developing cells, since the whole body is made up of cells
that duplicate themselves. When the cells duplicated… divided,
if the toxins and chemicals were present, they potentially could
have messed with the DNA, and when that new, duplicate cell was
born, the DNA of that ‘daughter’ cell may have been messed up.
That cell may now be a cancer cell. If the original cell that
divided was a breast cell, then the new, messed up version is
now a breast CANCER cell.
A breast cell with nothing changed but the
‘clock’ in its DNA that tells it when to divide (to make a new
cell to replace itself) is a breast cancer cell. A breast
cell that replicates itself too early (before the parent cell
has run it’s life-long course), causes a concentrated mass of
cells that disrupts the function of the organ in which it
resides. That is the definition of a malignant breast cell.
Breast Cancer! A spot in the breast is growing faster than the
surrounding breast tissue. That is why a lump can be felt, or a
bump can be seen on the surface of the breast. That is why women
are encouraged to do a good Breast Self-Examination (BSE). Learn
how to do that by reviewing this article:
How To Do A Breast
Self-Exam
So why do some toxins sit and linger in the
breasts? They can sit and linger anywhere. It depends upon
whether something moves them on through, to its intended
destination or not. When blood needs to move, which is constant,
of course, a man and a woman have a heart to move the blood. A
pump. When lymphatic fluid needs to move (to carry away the
toxins and chemicals from within their breasts), there is no
‘heart’… no pump to do that. The movement of the fluids (and the
toxins) only happens if the person’s muscles and tissues flex
and move, forcing the lymphatic fluid to move through the
lymphatic vessels.
When women walk, their legs with their muscles
and fatty tissues move, and the lymphatic fluid in their legs is
moved along, clearing the cellular debris (as well as the toxins
that build up) from the legs. When they move their arms, the
same thing happens to the toxins and cellular debris in the
arms. No toxins build up in the legs and arms.
Many chemicals and toxins love to reside in fatty
tissue. Where do we find a lot of a woman’s fatty tissue
located? In their breasts. Two-thirds of the average-sized
breast is fatty tissue. Toxins and chemicals love fatty tissues.
Toxins and chemicals move into their breasts. How do the toxins
and fluids get moved out of their breasts? When their breasts
move… maybe when they walk? Not when they walk downtown… wearing
a bra that is “guaranteed to control BREAST MOVEMENT! Women
wear bras to lock their breasts up against their chests and to
not allow them to move. So, all day along, their breasts are not
moving, and the toxins, pesticides, plastics, PCEs, and every
other thing, are trapped in their breasts… next to the breast
tissues that are duplicating themselves. Onh, oh. Bad mojo.
In a nutshell: These women do all of this effort
to minimize what goes into their bodies that may be harmful, but
some will always get past their screen of defense. If it does,
her body is equipped to handle some toxins… unless she
compromises her body’s abilities to compensate for those toxins.
That is what happens when she wears a bra that prevents her
breasts from flushing out those toxins that accumulate in her
breast tissues.
Bodies were designed before clothes were
designed. Breasts were designed to move. There must be a reason
they were designed to move. Now, we know. Breasts are supposed
to move so that they can force the lymphatic fluids to flow
through, flushing out any toxins and accumulated chemicals that
may find their way into her breast tissue.
Solution: Women should ask themselves just why
they are wearing the bra! Does their supervisor at work require
it? Is it because mom wore one? Who told mom that she needed
one? A sales lady? Back when bras were first invented… just
about a century ago actually… and by a woman no less… someone
had to really “sell” women on the idea of buying them… and
wearing one.
Women have allowed the general public to direct
them to wear bras for any number of reasons, but one thing is
sure. By wearing the bras, they are now one hundred twenty-five
times more likely to develop breast cancer in their lifetime.1
Many women wear a bra because they feel they will
be ‘judged’ harshly by others for not wearing one. Those same
women don’t let others tell them what foods to buy. They have
insisted on having good, wholesome, food, for themselves and
their families. They have not let others tell them that “regular
produce in the market is ‘just as good’” because they simply
know better. So, are they going to let others tell them “Wearing
a bra is what you SHOULD do, because “EVERYONE” wears a bra.” Of
course, over 250,000 women were diagnosed with breast cancer
last year… and another 250K the year before that.2
And how many of them were wearing a bra for the last decade or
two?
Women that have gone “against the norm” and
bought ‘organically grown’ produce have had better health. These
women are convinced their wise choices are a large part of why
that is true. That is why they are paying $4.50 for a bell
pepper, right? Well, women that have elected not to wear bras
all the time are reaping the benefits of their decision
as well. They are not worrying about what others will say about
how they are dressed… they are more concerned about not being in
that group of women that will be diagnosed with breast cancer.
When a woman makes good decisions about what to
eat, she eliminates a lot of possible troubles that may come
later, regarding her breast health. But the problem is that SOME
of those bad chemicals and toxins will still get into her
system. And after being so diligent about what she eats, it
would be terrible to know that the bra is working against her,
serving as a trap, holding toxins in her breasts, causing breast
cancer. That sort of defeats all of her care she has taken up to
that point.
OK, who says that they have any better chance of
avoiding breast cancer if they don’t wear a bra? We already know
that we are all going to have to deal with junk in the
atmosphere and in the fabric of our clothes and just taking a
drink from a plastic bottle of water, so who says taking off the
bra will be any better? Well, there are quite a few people
telling us this, all the time. Here is an article that shows
just some of the articles and websites on the internet that are
advising women to take off their bra when doing a Google Search
about not wearing a bra:
More & More Experts
Agree: Wearing A Bra Causes Breast Problems
The issue of a connection between wearing a bra
and having a higher risk of getting breast cancer was brought to
everyone’s attention by two medical anthropologists named Sydney
Singer and Soma Grismaijer, who surveyed about 4,600 women, some
with a history of breast cancer and some without, and found that
women that wear their bra twenty-four hours a day (that means
she wears it to bed too) are 125 times more likely to be
diagnosed with breast cancer than a woman that never wears a bra
will be. 1
(Dressed To Kill, pg 135.)
There have been several studies done in other
countries since the Bras and Breast Cancer survey (BBC) by
Singer/Grismaijer, and they have shown similar results.
Basically, they have all supported the findings of the BBC
study. Every study that has been done since this first one has
supported the original findings. Not one single study has been
done that did not support their findings. How many more times do
the researchers have to tell us… show us… warn us… that a bra
causes damage to our breasts, before we start to believe them?
How many times did the researchers show us that
cigarette smoking had an influence over lung cancer before the
public accepted the truth? It was well over three decades, and
some people are still not convinced. Will it take that long to
believe what the experts tell us about the link between bras and
breast cancer?
One thing about this question: You can always
leave off the bra… even if you still wear it to work, try to
keep it under 8 hours total for the day, and you will soon be
leaving it off much longer than that. You don’t have to wait for
any governmental agency or cancer organization to tell you to
take off your bra… that is your choice… today. Obviously, you
will not be able to see the results of your lowered risk of
breast cancer in a few months, but you will find that your
breasts are so much more comfortable without the bra, and you
won’t have those red welts on your breasts and your back in the
evening. You will also notice some restoration of your breast
lift after a few months. Your breasts’ support system will
actually get back to work. And large-breasted women report that
their back stops hurting as well.
Yes, there are organizations that SHOULD know the
truth about breast cancer (at least the name of the
organizations suggest that they should) that tell us “there is
no real proof that bras cause cancer”, but before you accept
their word as final, ask yourself these questions: Does this
organization manufacture or sell bras? Does this organization
accept donations from bra manufacturers or bra sales outlets?
Has this organization actually done any testing to learn the
truth?
We know the answer to that last question… no
testing has been done by anyone that shows there is NOT a
connection between bras and breast cancer. They only blindly
refute the results of the legitimate studies without doing any
studies themselves.
There is no question that a woman who consumes
organically-grown food is an intelligent person. She is always
making conscious decisions as to what foods she is eating. So,
the question is whether she has thought about how to prevent the
toxins and chemicals that she cannot help but to consume from
causing her to lose her breasts or her life to breast cancer.
Hopefully she will remember: One hundred twenty-five women that
wear a bra will get breast cancer before ONE that never wears a
bra will get breast cancer. That is simple logic that she cannot
afford to ignore.
So, hopefully she will continue to eat
organically, but she will think about dressing ‘organically’ as
well.
