 The Pink Frenzie every October to raise the awareness of cancer and early detection is noble but most of us are left with "many" unanswered questions. It is time to put ACTION behind the SCIENCE and PREVENT CANCER! Why is it taking this long to get regulatory standards in place and demand companies who are Pink Washing clean up their act. Pinkwashing is a company or organization that claims to care about breast cancer by promoting a pink ribbon product, but at the same time produces, manufactures or sells products that are linked to the disease! The first thing I would recommend is to get a simple urine test that measures if your hormones are out of balance. The test is called a Estronex Profile. The Estronex Profile measures six important estrogen metabolites and their ratios to help women, and even men, assess whether he or she is at risk of developing estrogen sensitive cancers. Estrogen sensitive cancers include uterine, ovarian, cervical, prostate, and even head and neck cancers. According to the American Cancer Society, an estimated 207,090 new cases of invasive breast cancer are expected to occur among women in the U.S. during 2010 about 1,970 new cases are expected in men. Avoid chances of becoming a statistic and assess estrogen levels and decrease risk with the Estronex Profile. You must understand how hormones in your food to sunscreens, pesticides, melatonin, CT Scans to Mammography are related and what they all have in common. Other real challenges in the medical community is understanding current regulations and policy recommendations and the agencies responsible for the regulation. The Report is called STATE OF THE EVIDENCE The Connection Between Breast Cancer and the Environment.
