Cleaning Protects Against Endometrial cancerObGynWorld.com

[Guest guest]

Hello---

Give that mop a whirl on your

floor, girls while you admire the gleaming

shine & that YOU have simultaneously reduced your

risk of endometrial cancer ....

Who sez?

Why, its from " ObGynWorld.com The

Essential Resource in Obstetrics &

Gynecology! "

" Cleaning protects against endometrial

cancer " Source: 95th Annual Meeting of

the American Association for Cancer Research:

Orlando, FL, USA; March 27-31, 2004

" Moreover, women who carried out 4 or more hours of household chores

or walked for over an hour each day were found to have a 30 percent

reduction in the likelihood of developing endometrial cancer,

compared with those who did not perform these activities. "

Amazing...and what protective effects of housecleaning

would enable men to lower their prostate cancer risks...

I can only continue to marvel at all the new and exciting

" studies " out there on the horizon for Gynes to advise their

patients in a frank and serious manner.

Marsh, what crossed my mind while I was reading your post was " wonder what

effect the chemicals in all those cleaning supplies have on our health " ?

And of course, re: men -- you know how their advice would read: " pick up

that football/get out to that workshop " . Guess GYNs still haven't caught on

to how many women pursue sports and other active hobbies. No, it's

housecleaning until we die...I think it's time to bring back Sapphire: The

Uppity Blues Women and their great album, " House Cleaning " . Now there's

some women who know how to clean house -- and tell off sexist researchers! "

Or to paraphrase my fav, EmmyLou :

" Housework ain't easy, housework ain't hard

Housework it ain't nothing but an awful boring job...

[Chorus]

And it's me and my machine

for the rest of the mornin',

for the rest of the afternoon,

for the rest of my life.
