I'm not sure if it was this woman or not, but I recall reading somewhere about a woman who had her breast milk analyzed and amongst the toxins found was jet fuel. Thinking of all of the toxins we are exposed to, today more than ever before, it doesn't come as a big surprise to think of all the younger women (under 30) who develop breast cancer. There was a time when that was unheard of. Now it happens far too often.

Interesting article hien5, thanks! :)

You're welcome, DD! I heard the woman interviewed you are talking about. She wrote a book and was being interviewed on NPR (Fresh Air??).

That sounds like the one. Scary though, don't you think?

The important thing I learned in that article, is that there is an app with 1200 boobs available!!
