Ever wonder Why there is more Cancer today than 20 years ago?

I know I have wonder why with all the technology and scientific breakthroughs we have why is there more cancer today than there was 20 years ago.. Today I recieved this story and information on a documentary done on television. It sure is something to think about...

Recently someone had to have their 5-year old German Shepherd dog put down due To liver ago, so they had a necropsy done to See what the cause was. The liver levels were unbelievable,
As if the dog had ingested poison of some kind. The Dog is kept inside, and when he's outside, someone's With him, so the idea of him getting into something Unknown was hard to believe. My neighbor started going Through all the items in the house. When he got to The Swiffer Wetjet, he noticed, in very tiny print, a warning Which stated "may be harmful to small children And animals."

He called the company to ask what the Contents of the cleaning agent are And was astounded to find out that antifreeze is one of The ingredients, (actually he was told it's a compound Which is one molecule away from antifreeze). Therefore, Just by the dog walking on the floor cleaned with the Solution, then licking it's own paws, it ingested Enough of the solution to destroy its liver. Soon after his dog's death, his housekeepers' two cats Also died of liver failure.

They both used the Swiffer Wetjet for quick Cleanups on their floors. Necropsies weren't done On the cats, so they couldn't file a lawsuit, but he
Asked that we spread the Word to as many people as possible So they don't lose their animals. This is equally harmful To babies and small children that play on the Floor a lot and put their fingers in their mouths a Lot.

PLEASE, EVEN IF YOU DO NOT HAVE BABIES, SMALL CHILDREN OR OWN A PET, PLEASE SEND OUT THIS LINK!

11 May 06 - CBC had A documentary on a week Ago or so all about cancer.
One of The reporters had cancer and so she Started to dig up information from Drug companies and other sources. Basically in a nutshell, drug companies Make too much money on people who Already have cancer so they don't Want to invest in preventative measures. They would make no money doing that - Not a good business plan. She also Found out that there are a lot of household Chemicals that we use everyday that have
Known carcinogens in them.

Swiffer Is one and another popular one is Mr.Clean Magic Eraser. Magic Eraser has formaldehyde in it. Not good if your babies Are touching the walls and We're using it with bare hands to clean The walls. They listed a whole bunch Of chemicals to look for in products When we go shopping and I'm sure it's On their website. In Nov '06, there will be new Regualtions that all Products must say on the label whether it Contains Carcinogens or not. It's about time! If any of you get a Chance to see it, or maybe find it On the website, it's really interesting. Explains a lot why people Have more cancer today than They did 20 years ago.

Here is a very good reason as a Shaklee Distributor I recommend their natural environmentally safe cleaning products!!!! Check out the new website that was built just for the NEW Cleaning Products. http://www.shaklee.net/mcasey/getclean

It makes me so angry that "big business" and the drug companies would rather not only keep us sick, but make us sick, so they can profit.

I heard about the Febreeze thing years ago, but I had also heard that they had changed their formulation so that it wouldn't kill small children and animals. Apparently, they are still up to their old tricks.

I think we should boycot ALL companies that knowingly put carcenogenic ingredients in their products.

Start using ALL NATURAL products!!!

Anyway...rant over. Phew...
