Medical Profession

Okay, after watching the news and then reading the newspaper, I have a few comments for today.

First, moderate drinkers are less likely to become overweight. Okay, well someone forgot to tell my butt that!!!!!! And at the same time, I read just last week that women who drink are twice as likely to get breast cancer as those who never drink... So which do you choose?

Which leads me to today's hot story. Shaving your armpits and using deodorant regularly can increase your risk of breast cancer. So I guess we are all supposed to be really hairy and stink really bad???

I realize that just about everything you do in today's world puts you at risk for something. So unless we all are locked away in germ resistent rooms (uh oh, no sun... lower levels of Vit. D which decreases serotonin and can cause depression, so that won't work) Hmm. You can't go hide out on a deserted island because you might burn and sunburn can lead to skin cancer... No hiding in the basement with artificial sun because they you are at risk from radon-induced lung cancer. I think we are all in trouble.

What I really want to know - why the focus on all these disagreements when there are really critical breakthroughs waiting to occur. Stop arguing over shaving and deodorant and let's find some cures!
