Recently, there has been a lot of debate regarding bras and the potential risk of sagging and breast cancer. Women are still confused and quite unsure whether bras cause sagging or prevent sagging. These debate leave women confused about the way in which bra affects their health.
First and foremost, most women, especially the ones with large-sized breasts need bras as supporting device for the breasts themselves. As a matter of fact, bustier women would suffer a lot issues without the support bras provide, including discomfort and back pain.
However, not all types of bra are beneficial. For instance, if you are keen on the latest styles, or the ones that make the breasts look bigger, as opposed to those that provide best support, you are likely to experience some serious health issues.
WHY IS WEARING A BRA BAD FOR YOUR HEALTH
According to a certain study, wearing bra can cause breast cancer. This theory is supported by the body`s ability to self-cleanse of toxins and the comparison between women who did and women who didn’t wear bras along with the corresponding breast cancer rates.
The same idea is supported by anthropologists Singer and Grismaijer, authors of the book Dressed to Kill: The Link between Breast Cancer and Bras, who suggest that it is the compromised lymphatic flow caused by ill-fitting bras which basically increase the risk of breast cancer. Over 4,000 women participated in this study.
Other findings the study revealed are the following:
women who wore their bras 24 hours per day had a 3 out of 4 chance of developing breast cancer,
women who wore bras more than 12 hour per day, but not to bed, had a 1 out of 7 risk,
women who wore their bras less than 12 hours per day had a 1 out of 52 risk, and
women who wore bras rarely or never had a 1 out of 168 chance of getting breast cancer.
In addition, Singer and Grismaijer investigated the past bra-wearing behavior of the subjects, which is crucial when it comes to disease that takes a lot of time to develop.
Furthermore, the idea that wearing a tight fitting bra can cut off lymph drainage is supported by many health experts and scientists.
This lymph drainage can lead to development of breast cancer, due to the fact that the lymph function to eliminate all the toxins that enter your body on a daily basis is compromised. For instance, in case of impaired lymph drainage, you are likely to experience a dangerous source of toxins which can potentially accumulate, via the aluminum from antiperspirants.
In addition to this, it is crucial to understand the importance of MOVEMENT for the lymphatic circulation in many tissues. For example, when you sit on an airplane flight for a long time, your feet and ankles can swell, due to the fact that your lymphatic circulation falls down to almost zero. Wearing a bra can be regarded as contributing factor to the development of breast cancer, as a result of cutting off lymphatic drainage, which in turn traps the toxic chemicals in the breast.
