Go Bra-free for Better Health

This is an article from a lady doctor encouraging ladies to go bra-free. Read on...

Dear Ladies,

Do you wear bra for the whole day and even at home?
I think we should go bra-free after reading these articles. It's a message to your health. Please pass this to all female friends you know. I think it's important to be aware.

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 Linda 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 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. 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 lymphatic. 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. Whatis the solution to breast cancer then?

DON'T WEAR A TIGHT BRA! And 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!

Bra-burning is no longer a feminist issue...it is now a battle between life and death. We should make others more aware of the hazards of wearing...please pass this e-mail on to everyone you know!
