CANCER NEWS FROM JOHN HOPKINS HOSPITAL
A friend of mine who has received Chemotherapy and is now receiving Radiation at Princess Margaret Hospital for breast cancer phoned me today to tell me what they have now found about causes of breast cancer. And then
tonight, I got the same information from another friend in Montreal .
The person with the cancer has been told by the hospital to only use deodorant rather than an anti-per spirant. The reasons are outlined in the letter below. Anyway, I thought it was worth sharing.
Ladies!! Be aware! Gentlemen, pass this on to the ladies in your life!
Sometime ago, I attended a Breast-Cancer- Awareness seminar. During the Q&A period, asked why the most common area for breast cancer was near the
armpit. My question could not be answered at that time. The leading cause of breast cancer is the use of anti-per spirant. What? A concentration of toxins leads to cell mutations, a.k.a. cancer. Yes, ANTI-PERSPIRANT. Most
of the products out there are an antiperspirant /deodorant combination, so go home and check. Deodorant is fine, anti-per spirant is not. Here's why:
The human body has a few areas that it uses to purge toxins from the body; behind the knees, behind the ears, the groin area, and armpits. The toxins
are purged in the form of perspiration. Anti-per spirant, as the name clearly indicates, prevents you from perspiring, thereby inhibiting the body from purging toxins from below the armpits. These toxins do not just magically disappear. Instead, the body deposits them in the lymph nodes
below the arms since it cannot sweat them out. Nearly all breast cancer tumours occur in the upper outside quadrant of the breast area. This is
precisely where the lymph nodes are located. Additionally, men are less likely (but not completely exempt) to develop breast cancer prompted by anti-per spirant usage because most of the anti-per spirant product is caught in their hair and is not directly applied to the skin. Women who apply
anti-per spirant right after shaving increase the risk further because shaving causes almost imperceptible nicks in the skin, which give the chemicals entrance into the body from the armpit area.
PLEASE pass this along to anyone you care about.
Breast cancer is becoming frighteningly common. This awareness may save lives.
