"Because screening does not...
|

|
 | 10/12/2010 - Now that we're in the midst of "Breast Cancer Awareness Month" -- with all its pinkwashing nonsense at full tilt -- it brings up the question of why the month is named an "awareness" month. Why not name it "Breast Cancer Prevention Month?" The answer to that question, it turns out, reveals a number...
|
| 9/24/2010 - You now have another good reason to skip that next mammogram, based on new research out of Norway. According to findings by Dr. Mette Kalager and his team from Oslo University Hospital, getting a mammogram appears to cut the risk of dying from breast cancer by meager two percent at best -- a percentage...
|
 | 9/15/2010 - Over and over, women are pushed to have mammograms in order to detect breast cancer.

| 6/14/2010 - The American Cancer Society (ACS) was back in the news this month when they disputed the findings of the President's Cancer Panel on the role of toxins in causing cancer.

|
 | 6/9/2010 - It's well-established that exposure to ionizing radiation can trigger mutations and other genetic damage and cause normal cells to become malignant.

|
 | 4/7/2010 - A 2005 study concluded that a push in Denmark to screen large numbers of women for breast cancer with mammography had reduced breast cancer deaths in Copenhagen by a whopping 25 percent.

|
| 1/1/2010 - 2009 has been a crazy year for health and medicine.

|
| 11/23/2003 8:18:25 PM - Mammograms are one of the great myths of modern medicine: they're extremely unreliable and give false positives, especially in the U.S. where intepretation standards vary widely.
