Cancer Update from Johns-Hopkins

Bottled  water in your car is very  dangerous!    On the Ellen show, Sheryl Crow said this is what caused her breast  cancer.  It has been identified as the most common cause  of the high levels of dioxin in breast cancer tissue.  Sheryl Crow's oncologist told her:  women should not drink bottled water that has been left in a car. The heat reacts with the chemicals in the plastic of the  bottle which releases dioxin into the water.   Dioxin is a toxin increasingly found in breast cancer tissue.  So please be careful and do not drink bottled water  that has been left in a car.   Pass this on to all the women in your life.       This information is the kind we need to know that just might save us!  Use a stainless steel canteen or a glass bottle  instead of plastic! LET EVERYONE WHO HAS A WIFE / GIRLFRIEND /  DAUGHTER KNOW PLEASE! This  information is also being circulated at Walter Reed  Army Medical Center   No plastic  containers in  microwave.  No  water  bottles in freezer  No  plastic wrap  in microwave.  A dioxin chemical causes cancer,  especially breast cancer.   Dioxins are highly poisonous to the cells of our bodies.  Don't freeze your plastic bottles with water in them  as this releases dioxins from the plastic.   Recently, Edward Fujimoto, Wellness Program Manager at Castle Hospital , was on a TV program to explain this health  hazard.   He talked about dioxins and how bad they are for us.   He said that we should not be heating our food in the microwave using  plastic  containers... This  especially applies to foods that contain  fat. He said that the  combination of fat, high heat,=2 0and plastic releases  dioxin into the food  and ultimately into the cells of the body...  Instead, he recommends using  glass, such as   Corning   Ware, Pyrex  or ceramic containers  for heating food.. You get the same results, only without the dioxin. So such things as TV dinners, instant ramen and  soups, etc.,   should be removed from the container  and heated in something  else.    Paper isn't bad but  you don't know what is in the paper.  It's just safer to use tempered  glass,    Corning    Ware, etc.. He reminded us that a while ago some of the fast food  restaurants moved away from the foam containers to paper.  The dioxin problem is one of the reasons...    Also, he pointed out  that plastic wrap, such as Saran wrap,  is just as dangerous when placed  over foods to be cooked in the microwave.  As the food is nuked, the high heat  causes poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the plastic wrap and  drip into the food   Cover  food with a paper towel  instead. This is an  article that should be read by anyone important in Your life!
