I did not know that it had anti-cancer causing properties, but it is a strong anti-oxidant ( which would fight carcinogens in the system), so I can see why it might help fight breast cancer. It does have alot of other good healthy effects on the body. Alot of people take flax seed oil these days. It couldn't hurt!

antiperspirants – classified as drugs by the FDA – which attempt to stop or significantly reduce perspiration. Aluminum chloride, aluminum chlorohydrate, and aluminum-zirconium compounds are the most widely used antiperspirants. Aluminum-based complexes react with the electrolytes in the sweat to form a gel plug in the duct of the sweat gland. The plugs prevent the gland from excreting liquid and are removed over time by the natural sloughing of the skin. The blockage of a large number of sweat glands reduces the amount of sweat produced in the underarms, though this may vary from person to person

I don't hink wearing bra will cuase breast cancer. Deodorant is one of the biggest causes and obviously if it runs in the family genetically you could also be prone.\n\nI found in Marks and Spencers the other day these stick on nipple covers that will just go over your nipples and prevent them from getting rubbed

I know there is a shot that doc's can give for serious problems. I'd google some natural remedies in her diet. A girl shouldn't have that severe of a problem. \n\nThe ONLY antiperspirant that works for me is Almay Anti-Perspirant & Deodorant, Clear Gel, Fragrance Free - 2.25 oz - NOT the other Almay products. I get it at drugstore.com.\n\n\nDr. Andrew Weil's take on this situation is:\n\nBody odor\nMost body odor is the result of bacterial breakdown of sweat. Perspiration itself is normally odorless. An easy way to reduce the amount of bacteria under the arms is to splash on rubbing alcohol. Most commercial deodorant products contain irritating or harmful ingredients, including aluminum salts and dyes. Avoid the antiperspirant varieties. You can find better products in health-food stores, such as those containing extracts of green tea, which is antibacterial. Beware of "natural crystals," which contain aluminum even if they say they don't. Stimulant drugs, including coffee and tea, contribute to body odor by increasing the activity of apocrine sweat glands, special glands in hairy parts of the body that produce strong-smelling, musky secretions. Try eliminating caffeine if body odor continues to be a problem. \n\nAnother herbal remedy site suggested this:\n\nBeneficial Dietary Supplements\nChlorophyll is an effective deodorizer.\n\nVitamin B helps remove waste.\n\nZinc helps balance the body’s metabolism and reduces the cause of bad body odor.\n\nMagnesium enhances the effectiveness of vitamin B and zinc.\n\nThyme and Lavender Oils kill bacteria.\n\nSage, when taken in tea form, reduces sweat gland activity.

You need to buy Anti-perspirant.  Deodorant just masks the B.O.

I have clicked on the link and I read about a chemical substance(filter), that is called PBSA and is contained in some sunscreens. \nIt's impressing!\nWe put on our skin a product in order to protect it and we do exactly the opposite! Thanks for the information. I haven't heard about this, but BBC site is a trustworthy site, so this notice must be valid.\nI suppose that this special case is the result of a European Union program about chemicals, their detection and their elimination from our daily life.\n\nKaterina

I am a pharmacist, and I can tell you that until VERY recently the cure was more dangerous because it does stop all cells from dividing, BUT recently a new product called IP6 was created and proven to target ONLY cancer dividing cells making it possible to cure cancer. This is not very popular yet, because of distribution barriers and big companies are giving the small ones hard time just because of the big money issue. So YES there is an evident working cure and it will become more and more popular over the next few months and years. You can search about the product on any search engine if you need more info.

One of the best products that I've tried is Certain Dri.  I was a little skeptical at first, but it has worked really well for me.  It has a different active ingredient than most other anti-perspirant and you put it on at night before bed instead of in the morning.  You can get it at Target or Wal-Mart.

discovered?  has been described for centuries, women have died from this for most of history.\n\nDon't think there is a satisfactory answer for that.\n\nhow?  it was growing through her chest some time in 500BC, something like that.\n\nbest history of breast cancer can be found reading about Halsted, the father of modern surgery, and first man to improve survival in breast cancer patients.\n\nA great man, sorta, gotta read on this man to know anything about breast cancer.

One can get a prescription strength anti-perspirant from your family doctor. It's relitively cheap and more effective than over the counter anti-perspirants.

The VERY best thing to use is aloe vera.  Straight from the plant is the ultimate best but you can buy it over the counter too.  Its natural and works great.  If you buy it over the counter, keep it in the fridge.  The additional coolness will help even more.

try B+Drier, it works miracles.  i've tried so many anti-perspirants including certain-dri but they never worked for more than an hour or two.  B+Drier is 15% aluminum chloride, the active ingredient in anti-perspirants, which is the highest you'll find over the counter.  plus it doesnt itch like certain-dri, just make sure you put it on every night before bed for the best results.  and wear your normal deoderant as well, because its only an anti-perspirant.

No- it is not.  Other reasons why it may be used include benign fatty tumors, abnormal enlargement of the male breasts, problems with metabolism of fat in the body , and excessive sweating in the armpit area.
