Breast Cancer and YouFriday, May 23, 2014 - by Water2Drink![]() In our modern world, we are surrounded by chemicals and
substances that are commonly used in everyday life. Unfortunately, many common
chemicals we encounter have been found to be carcinogenic and are linked to
cancer, specifically breast cancer. A new study published in the Environmental Health
Perspectives peer-reviewed journal identifies 17 groups of #chemicals that are linked
to breast cancer. These include benzene
and butadiene (found in vehicle exhaust, tobacco smoke, or charred food),
methylene chloride (found in cleaning solvents), flame retardants (found in
treated furniture or rugs), stain-resistant textiles (found in furniture
upholstery), and disinfection byproducts (found in drinking water). Silent Spring, an organization dedicated to identifying and
breaking the links between environmental chemicals and #breastcancer, provides a
list of seven tips you can follow to reduce or eliminate your exposure to
breast carcinogens. #SilentSpring
believes that while science is still discovering how these chemicals affect our
health and our lives, these tips provide actions you can take to begin reducing
your exposure now. #Water2Drink is in full alignment with Multipure’s core
belief of better water for better health. For over forty years, Multipure has produced
