The study results revealed a remarkable reversal of cancer-associated gene expressions in their breast tissue, suggesting that reducing exposure to these xenoestrogens could positively influence breast cell health.
Specifically, the study demonstrated that the subjects experienced significant changes in their breast cells, turning off certain genes linked to breast cancer.
Breast Cancer Awareness Month is about breast health, and I don’t think there’s anything more important than emphasizing the importance of making informed choices about the products we use daily. Your choices largely determine your health outcome…. not your genes. (Genes only play a 5-15% role.)
It makes absolutely no sense to use paraben and phthalate laden personal care products.
None.
Especially when there are excellent safe alternatives out there.
I agree that not knowing all the names that parabens and phthalates go by on labels is extremely challenging….. there are soooo many, and I don’t have them all memorized either…… which is why finding a brand that works well, is safe and (bonus points!) has health benefits in addition to being safe.
Young Living is committed to keeping us healthy and safe. Kudos to y’all who have also figured this out too.
By switching to paraben and phthalate-free products, we gals can potentially reduce the risk of breast cancer and promote overall well-being. We are the keepers of our castle, and what a blessing to be awake, aware and have choices!
