Is it true that underwire bras are bad for you? I heard that it may lead to breast cancer. Is it true??
 
Just my quick two cents. I suspect underwire bras cause breast cancer as much as wrist watches cause skin cancer: which means that I don't believe either cause cancer. And I don't suspect that underwire bras are killers any more than regular bras.
 
What?! Wrist watches causes skin cancer!?! hahaha Thanks spazntwitch.
 
Anything that restricts circulation of blood or lymphatic fluids is going to cause toxins to build up in that part of the body. If that is a factor in causing cancer, then there is a connection. But even if it's not a cancer factor, the toxic buildup isn't good.
 
I agree w/ Dan! It's also very bad when the wire pokes through the material or snaps in half then pokes through the material and jabs your skin. OUCH!!!
 
I dont do underwires - totally hate them!!!!!!!!!!
 
found this little ditty on what we call "the internet"



Claims have it that women who wear tight-fitting bras all day, every day, have a much higher risk of developing breast cancer than those who went au naturel. The authors claimed that by inhibiting lymphatic drainage, bras trapped toxins in the breast tissue, which caused cancer.


According to critics, however, the bra-caused breast cancer theory is not supported by sufficient evidence. Scientists say the research of Singer and Grismaijer failed to exclude confounding variables such as the presence in some women of known risk factors for breast cancer. Thus, the notion of a correlation between wearing a bra and breast cancer does not appear to hold up.


















do you smell that?
i think its bs


:p
 
my SIL has never worn an underwire and is now battling breast cancer.
 
I agree Rockstar..........:bs: That is like saying, wearing a tight hat causes brain cancer or something........

:hug: to your SIL Clubby
 
statistically speaking, more people die in hospitals than any other place. so it's fair to conclude that hospitals cause death.

I've heard if you wear a push up bra....it limits eye contact.:hmmmm2:
 
:convinced: Hmm good point! They do pinch off quite a bit of lyph nodes.
 
That's why i always go "Commando"

Good luck sleeping tonight with that picture in your head;)
 
Ah yes - the CNN tower photo.
