Guest guest Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 Actually I dont look at porn Im a clinical biologist. I see enough of the real stuff everyday so dont need porn. If you'd checked my profile you would have known that. For years, a lot of articles with regards to the causes of breast cancer point to an unhealthy diet and lack of exercise as the major links to this disease which happens to be the biggest killer among women during these last two decades. These studies would have been almost credible if it were not for the fact that several women (including McCartney) who have been religious vegetarians and exercise- freaks have also been unfortunate in suffering breast cancer. Perhaps the most convincing article I have ever read with regards to this matter, published in Chinese, is one which links breast cancer to the wearing of bras. In the " Bra and Breast Cancer Study " in the United States, it was discovered that women with breast cancer had a history of sporting tighter and longer bra-wearing than did the women who had not (yet) developed the disease. In fact, virtually all of the cancer group wore bras over 12 hours daily with 18% even sleeping with their bras which means they wore bras 24 hours daily. In contrast, the comparison groups had 25% of the women either bra-free or wearing bras less than 12 hours daily. Only 3% of this group slept with their bras on. This study revealed a significant link between bras and breast cancer that is three times greater than the link between cigarette smoking and lung cancer! There was a 125 fold increase in breast cancer incidence between women who were bra-free and those who wore bras 24 hours daily. Wearing a bra over 12 hours daily conferred a 113 fold increase in breast cancer incidence! Bras apply pressure to the breasts, especially to the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system consists of tiny, thin-walled vessels that drain from the breast tissue, removing toxins, cell debris, cancer cells, viruses, bacteria, and other products from the breasts. All of our tissues drain through the lymphatics, which is essentially the circulatory pathway of the immune system. However, unlike arteries and veins, these vessels have no internal pressure. As a result, they are easily compressed by external pressure (a bra, for instance) leading to the congestion of the tissues that would otherwise have been drained. When a woman wears a tight bra, she subjects her breasts to pressure, closing off the lymphatic pathway from the breast to the nodes. This causes fluid build-up, swelling, tenderness and cyst formation. Toxins must be flushed out via the lymphatics. However, a bra- constricted breast cannot adequately perform this cleansing process, resulting in toxin accumulation in the breast. Truthfully, bras are creating droopy, weak breasts...the breast relies on the bra for artificial support, the body loses its ability to support the breast by itself. This is why many women feel uncomfortable without a bra. What is the solution to breast cancer then? DON'T WEAR A TIGHT BRA! And maybe sleep without them. There is a remarkable success rate for recovery from fibrocystic breast disease within 10 days to two weeks of going bra-free. Many women have tried going bra-less and recorded a miraculous improvement in their health! > she (he ?) is asking I believe for picture to post in same sick porno web site.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 Interesting but I am not sure I buy all of this. I have always been a bra hater since I really did not need one for a long time due to small breasts ...I did not wear a bra at home and my word, I can't imagine anyone wanting to sleep in a bra...but I got b.c. Some of the ladies here may not know how to check your profile so you might tell them how to do that. Also, although I think you are probably legit, we have had several members who signed up with a profile that was totally not them! One in particular I remember was a lady who had a profile that would burn the computer it was so wild and suggestive...guess she got a kick out of that! And we had a man who joined who tried to give us a story that we found to be untrue...his profile was " snow white " . So you see, profiles are not necessarily what they show. I wish you well with your project, I don't have any pictures that I would want to share. > > she (he ?) is asking I believe for picture to post in same sick > porno web site.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 Well, I am not sold on the bra wearing cancer connection theory. I could be the exception to the rule but... I have had breast cancer 3x: invasive ductal E-,P-, and Her2-. The first time was in 1996 with a 2.1 tumor in the upper right quadrant. I had a recurrence in 2002 of a 1.1cm tumor in the scar tissue, where first tumor was removed. During Biopsy they found a second tumor 1.5cm in the same breast - opposite side. In 2003 with the second recurrence being metastasis of the skin above mastectomy site. The first time I had breast cancer I answered all those questions, and was told at that time - I had no known causes. I have almost never worn a bra thru-out my entire life. I tried wearing a bra in my teens, but found them very uncomfortable. After a few weeks I tossed them to the wayside much to my parents' dismay. I did wear a nursing bra for a few months after the birth of each of my 5 children. I was forced to because when my breasts filled with milk, they would get warm, tingle for a second and then they would release it! I made so much milk I could single-handedly nurse all the babies in a few blocks. I recall the last straw was when I was talking to a store clerk and a stream of milk went right thru my cloths and across the counter (very embarrassing), he was very understanding, having children himself. I couldn't nurse as long as would have liked because I was always soaken wet and stunk of milk with this milk releasing. But other than that, no bras! Now during the times I ate and exercised as I should, after my first diagnosis, I did have better health. Even my onc told me at that time to keep doing whatever it is that I am doing -- because it is working or at least helping me. When I had my recurrence, I was downhearted about eating right and exercising but still getting sick. My Dr told me not to ever feel that way. That I was doing what I should be doing. I could not say that doing these things didn't help my health. He said sometimes things are just in the cards and for all I know doing these good things could have held off he illness and added years to my life. He said possibly had I not done these things I could have had a recurrence long ago! Now with the last recurrence I have found out I have breast cancer 1 gene. So he may be very right about it being in the cards and how I may have kept it away longer by taking better care of myself.
