Bras Shown to Cause
Cancer
(NaturalNews) Is it possible that wearing a bra can actually
cause cancer? Studies show that this is a very real possibility.
The reason is that regularly wearing a bra prevents lymph drainage
and circulation, which can greatly increase the possibility of
developing breast cancer.
The lymphatic and circulatory systems are responsible for both
delivering vital nutrients and clearing out toxins. When the body
does not have access to nutrients or when it is under the attack of
toxins, cancer may develop.
A study published in the European Journal of Cancer studied factors
for breast cancer such as breast size and handedness. They
discovered that premenopausal women who do not wear bras are less
than half as likely to get breast cancer that those who regularly
wear a bra. A study conducted by researcher David Moth
revealed that even the lightest bras place pressure on the
lymphatic system.
Other research published in Chronobiology International in 2000
discovered that regular bra wearing decreases the production of
melatonin, which is a potent natural antioxidant and the hormone
that regulates sleep, boosts the immune system and, incredibly
fights aging. Balanced melatonin levels are essential for the body
to fight many types of cancer, including breast cancer.
Researchers Singer and Grismaijer observed 4,500 women and their
bra wearing practices. An amazing 3 out of 4 women who wore their
bras 24 hours per day developed breast cancer. Women who wore their
bras more than 12 hours per day had a 1 in 7 chance of getting
breast cancer. 1 out 152 women who wore their bra less than 12
hours a day got breast cancer and an incredibly low 1 out of 168
women who rarely or never wear a bra developed breast cancer.
These same researchers studied the indigenous populations of New
Zealand and Australia. The Maoris, who are indigenous to New
Zealand, are basically fully integrated into mainstream New Zealand
life and interestingly have the same chances of developing breast
cancer. The aboriginals of Australia on the other hand have not
integrated into regular western society and do not regularly wear
bras, and have practically no breast cancer. Japanese,
Fijians, and many women from other cultures were found to have a
significantly higher chance of developing breast cancer when they
began wearing bras.
It may be interesting to note that a very small proportion of men
do develop breast cancer, exactly the same amount as women who go
braless!
