Where do you draw the line?

Question

Everytime I turn around, SOMETHING ELSE is causing cancer. I mean think about it. Exposure to sun, tanning beds, cell phone, standing in front of the microwave, birth control pills, deodorant. Just about everything has been tested and has been said to cause cancer. Where do you draw the line? If we stopped using all of these things, we would be pale, lonely, hungry, and smelly people with more kids than we can handle. Where do you draw the line on living safe and being paranoid?

Answer 1

There are a lot of things you can do as
a precaution, but it doesnt mean you
have to give everything up, a lot of things
can be added to your lifestyle rather than
taken away, ex: eating more broccolli,
but also.....
check your family background to see what
illnesses are in your genes, that makes the
stronges case for prevention

Answer 2

First off cell phones, microwaves, deodorant and birth control pills do not cause cancer. Most cancers are caused by the toxic chemical we use to fertilize our crops and by the toxic chemicals used in our home to clean and do laundry, Women who stay at home are 50% more likely to develop cancer than women who work outside the home because of the increased exposure to toxic chemicals in the home. Many household cleaners are registered pesitcides. You best defence against cancer is to get rid of all of your toxic cleaners and laundry products and eat a healthy diet.

Answer 3

For some reason people can't figure out that what causes cancer is being alive. People get cancer, bottom line. Its like death, you just can't avoid for very long.

Answer 4

I really believe it's all the chemicals in food and agriculture causing the problems. The most sustainable way to eat is organic vegan raw. My friend has a whole restaurant and holistic medical practice around it. Check out his site!

Answer 5

I don't want to be one of those people who avoid all the things that can cause illness only to die perfectly healthy when it's my time to go.
