Article Abstract:
The health advice given to the British public on breast cancer avoidance is not good enough. Women have a greater chance of contracting breast cancer in modern society than they did in the 1960s. They are also exposed to far more carcinogens than previous generations of women. The collective toxic health effects of carcinogens should be studied to remove the causes of cancers.
