Eating meat not linked to breast cancer in older women

meat, breast cancerMeat is good! Well, it’s not all bad anyway. There are several things that have been linked to breast cancer in postmenopausal women like smoking e.t.c. Well, now it looks like eating meat is not one of them.

Meat produces chemicals called “meat mutagens”, which are thought to cause changes in the DNA in cells. Changes in the DNA (mutations) are what triggers cancer. Apparently, eating any type of meat, whether white or red, no matter how it’s cooked, does not increase the risk of developing breast cancer in postmenopausal women.

Don't miss:


Researchers found that even in those who were already had high risk factors for developing breast cancer e.g women who smoked, drank alcohol, used menopausal HRT, had no children or were obese, eating meat did not appear to increase their risk of developing breast cancer.

I need to stress that this study looked at the diet of post-menopausal women in relation to breast cancer. It is still possible that eating large amounts of meat as a teenager when the breasts are developing, may increase breast cancer risk.

Fem Dophilus - relief from persistent bacterial vaginosis and yeast infections

Fem dophilus women's probiotic for persistent bacterial vaginosis and yeast infections Women's probiotic for vaginal and urinary tract health

Fem Dophilus reviews

  • During sex I had a very strong and embarrassing fishy odor......My first day taking it I saw results. I was impressed, no sticky discharge and no odor! The big test was sex and it passed that test with flying colors....no smell that consumed the entire room. Those pills saved my life lol.
  • I tried this product and followed the advice of other reviewers for tapering down the dosage. It's been three years and I haven't had a recurrence. HIGHLY recommended.
  • I've tried everything (else) for BV over the past 8 years and nothing works. The doctors are clueless... My sex life is better because I don't have to worry about an awful smell afterwards. I take 2 capsules a day faithfully and insert one vaginally every other day. Fem-Dophilus is a miracle in a little capsule!
  • When I think of all the money I have spent over the years on creams, prescriptions, OTC supplements, homeopathic treatments, special diets, etc -- I wish more doctors knew about this product. It would have saved me so much pain and heartache.
