Yes, it’s true. You should remove your bra whenever possible. I am sure men everywhere are hooting and hollering and clapping their hands right now.
No, this is not a protest. This is about your health, ladies.
Bras constrain your breasts and restrict the lymph.
Lymph is the fluid the makes up your immune system. It’s that fluid that continually bathes your cells and carries away debris. Decreased circulation impedes your body’s ability to drain away toxins, which could result in breast cancer.
Here are some statistics that may encourage you to give “the girls” a little room to breathe…
If you wear a bra 24 hours a day you have a 3 in 4 chance of breast cancer.
If you wear a bra more than 12 hours a day, you have a 1 in 7 chance of breast cancer.
If you were a bra less than 12 hours per day you have a 1 in 52 chance of breast cancer.
Women who rarely wore a bra had a 1 in 168 chance of getting breast cancer.
Not yet ready to abandon your bra? I hear ya, but how about you start with lessening the amount of time you wear a bra at home? Even if you wore one of those cute little camis with the built in shelf bra. A little support, but would allow the lymph to circulate.
Here is why you should seriously consider giving up your underwire bra.
Most underwire bras have a metal wire in them. The problem is that wire acts as an antenna and sits on top of some important acupuncture points. Over time, the metal wire will mess up your liver, gallbladder and stomach meridians.
The wire also acts as an antenna attracting electromagnetic fields, which may increase your cell service (just kidding) and increase your risk of breast cancer (not kidding).
This video from Donna Eden, the developer of Energy Medicine, talks about Energy Blockages and Underwire Bras. I love her work and I think you will too!
