Study finds true cause of most breast cancer
Isn't it sad that we need non-profit third parties to figure out what pesticides, cosmetics, dyes, prescription drugs, and gasoline does to us? The manufacturers should do the studies and be honest about the potential side effects of their products, but they are not.

We in the USA have to wait for non-profits like Silent Spring Institute to pick up the slack and tell us 90% of all breast cancer is in fact caused by chemicals we use every day, not genetics. Consumers are being urged by the study to eat organic foods and use non-plastic containers to re-heat and store food (since some plastics seep cancer causing chemicals into the food during temperature changes) in an effort to avoid pesticides and other synthetic chemicals whenever possible.

The American government has been very lax on restricting the production of the highly profitable (but proven deadly) synthetic chemicals, but Europe is taking a stand. The European Commission's new Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) Program calls on chemical manufacturers selling anywhere in Europe to re-register and re-evaluate the pontential health hazards - including cancer risks - of their products.

The study also took note of an interesting fact found in the detailed birth to death Scandanavian health records. The breast cancer risk of adopted children parallels that of the family they grew up in, not their biological family. This further proves that cancer is a disease of habit and habitat.

We do it to ourselves. We create cancer in our own bodies. Do you think this just might be because we're not educated on the effects of the chemicals we use - because the corporations that produce them don't want us to know, because all they care about is money? Hmm.
