Burn Your Bra to Prevent Breast Cancer
My mom has just gone through aggressive treatment for breast cancer and my aunt has recently been diagnosed. Yet I am curious as to why her doctors have never told her about these incredible findings on the difference that wearing a bra can make to our chances of getting breast cancer. And I am happy to say that I have never ever been bra wearing (I suppose you could call me a bit of a hippy in that sense.)
Bras impede the flow of the circulatory and lymphatic systems, which are responsibly 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 wore a bra. A study conducted by researcher David Moth revealed that even the lightest bras place pressure on the lymphatic system.
A study published 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. This means that giving up your bra will actually help you to defy age naturally!! Balanced melatonin levels are essential for the body to fight many types of cancer, including breast cancer.
Researchers Singer and Grismaijer observed the how often women wore bras in 4,500 women in US cities. 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 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.
Obviously there may be other factors such as dietary changes and changes in physical activity that may have an impact, but it is certainly incredibly valuable information. 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!
So why doesn’t every women in the world know about these findings? I find it truly incredibly that we have all of these pink ribbons flying around, but one incredibly easy way to prevent breast cancer is never discussed. How is it possible that my mom, who has been through two rounds of chemotherapy, one round of radiation and 1 year of a strong drug called herseptim has never been told by her doctors about this incredibly simple way to prevent breast cancer.
