Campaign Exposes Breast Cancer Links
'Breast
cancer - an environmental disease',
published by umbrella organisation
the UK Working Group on the Primary
Prevention of Breast Cancer, pulls
together evidence on what is known
of the effect of gender-bending
chemicals, carcinogens and toxins
on animals and humans.
The research
gathers together "incontrovertible
evidence" that many industrial
chemicals and radiation are major
causes of breast cancer. It points out
that breast cancer was relatively rare
until the mid-20th century,with one woman in
12 expecting to get breast cancer
in her lifetime in1996. Five years later, and
the figure was one in nine, the report
reveals.
The government and the "cancer establishment" is failing to tackle the causes of breast cancer, particularly exposure to industrial chemicals, according to the report.
