Importance: High
I just got information from a health seminar that I would like to
share. The leading cause of breast cancer is the use of anti-perspirant.
What?
Yes, ANTI-PERSPIRANT. Most of the products out there are an
anti-perspirant/deodorant combination so go home and check your
labels. Deodorant is fine, anti-perspirant is not. Here's why:
The human body has a few areas that it uses to purge toxins;
behind the knees, behind the ears, groin area, and armpits.
The toxins are purged in the form of perspiration. Anti-perspirant,
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. This causes a high concentration of toxins
and leads to cell mutations: a.k.a. CANCER.
Nearly all breast cancer tumors 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-perspirant usage because
most of the anti-perspirant product is caught in their hair and is not
directly applied to the skin. Women who apply anti-perspirant 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. If
you are skeptical about these findings, I urge you to do some
research for yourself. You will arrive at the same conclusions,
I assure you.
Thank you.
