>>> >>> Hi Everyone,
>>> >>> Here's some good information.
>>> >>> Some time ago, I attended a Breast Cancer Awareness seminar put on 
>by Terry Birk with support from Dan Sullivan.
>>> >>>
>>> >>> During the Q&A period, I asked why the most common area for Breast 
>Cancer was near the arm pit. My question could not be answered at that 
>time. This email was just sent to me, and I find it interesting that my 
>question has  been answered. I challenge you all to rethink your everyday 
>use of a product that could ultimately lead to a terminal illness.
>>> >>>
>>> >>> As of today, I will change my use. "A friend forwarded this to me. I
>>> >>> showed it to a friend going through chemotherapy and she said she 
>learned this fact in a support group recently.  I wish I had known it 14 
>years ago. I just got information from a health seminar that I would like 
>to share. The leading cause of breast cancer is the use of antiperspirant. 
>What? A Concentration of toxins leads to cell mutations: a.k.a. CANCER. 
>Yes, ANTIPERSPIRANT. Most of the products out there are an 
>antiperspirant/deodorant combination so go home and check your labels. 
> Deodorant is fine, antiperspirant is not. Here's why: The human body has a 
>few areas that it uses to purge toxins; behind the knees, behind the ears, 
>groin area, and armpits. The toxins are purged in the form of perspiration. 
> Antiperspirant, as the name clearly indicates, prevents you from 
>perspiring, thereby inhibiting the body from purging toxins from below the 
>armpits. These toxins do not just magically disappear.  Instead, the body 
>deposits them in the lymph nodes below the arms since it cannot sweat them 
>out. Nearly all breast cancer tumors occur in the upper outside quadrant of 
>the breast area.  This is precisely where the lymph nodes are located. 
>Additionally, men are less likely (but not completely exempt) to develop 
>breast cancer prompted by antiperspirant usage because most of the 
>antiperspirant product is caught in their hair and is not directly applied 
>to the skin. Women who apply antiperspirant right after shaving increase 
>the risk further because shaving causes almost imperceptible nicks in the 
>skin which give the chemicals entrance into the body from the armpit area.
>>> >>> PLEASE pass this along to anyone you care about.  Breast Cancer is 
>becoming frighteningly common. This awareness may save lives. If you are 
>skeptical about these findings, I urge you to do some research for 
>yourself. You will arrive at the same conclusions, I assure you.
