Does the standard deodorant cause breast cancer? High levels of aluminium have been found in the breast tissue of cancer patients – and the standard deodorant and anti-perspirant is 90 per cent aluminium.
Aluminium is easily absorbed by the skin, especially if the underarms have been shaved. Once it is in the body, it mimics the hormone estrogen, which is known to be involved in the development of breast cancer.

Do you suffer from restless leg syndrome (RLS)? Worse, are you married to someone who does? Well, don’t blame them - it’s all down to their genes.
RLS was first described around 350 years ago, and all that time on it’s still considered by some as “the most common disorder you have never heard of”.
Critics deny it even exists, others claim that it is nothing more than a reaction to a pharmaceutical drug, which doesn’t explain the cases from 350 years ago.

1. How Is Quantum Reflexology Different From Other Types Of Reflexology?
Conventional Reflexology concentrates on the physical body. However we are multi-dimensional Beings, functioning on many levels simultaneously... mind, body, spirit and emotions... and therefore any unilateral approach to health is incomplete at best, and leaves a lot to be desired. Quantum Reflexology teaches how to work with the spiritual and emotional aspects of our existence – from working with aura’s, chakras and the quantum energy field.
2. What will I learn?
Quantum physics is now front and centre in the world of healing. With the release of the film "The Secret" and "What the Bleep" the concept of being surrounded by a field of energy is no longer in the realms of fantasy. Using videos, DVD's and 21st century technology - learning how to interact with "The Field" is front and centre in this fascinating course. Creating your own future, present and past.
Reflexology is a gentle therapy, a massage of the feet, which encourages the body to work naturally to restore its own healthy balance.
In reflexology, it is believed that there is a “vital energy” that circulates between the organs of the body, which penetrates every living cell. Whenever there is an imbalance or problem with a certain organ or part of the body, the energy stops flowing freely and the problem manifests itself on the feet. By using a gentle finger or thumb stimulation process to these areas, the reflexologist helps remove the blockages so that the energy can flow more freely again.
Barclay Simpson, who is providing wellness at his Practice of Reflexology, said modern day living is affecting everyone's quality of life. Medical research has tracked the roots of 90 percent of ailments to stress. People need to access a safe, rejuvenating state mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually.
That's where reflexology comes in. Reflexology is the stimulation of reflexes to activate the body's innate regenerative healing abilities.
The mystery of the missing honeybees may have a simple solution. But will anyone pay attention?
Over the past few months there have been a stream of daily updates about colony collapse disorder (CCD), the phenomenon in which bees abandon their hives and disappear – a potential disaster for food crops that require pollination.
Most of the updates come from newspapers that detail local incidences of CCD. And most of them read the same: a description of the overall problem followed by interviews with local beekeepers. Each of these accounts notes the various theories about what causes CCD (all speculation at this point): fungi, bacteria, pesticides, parasitic mites, weakened immune systems, and even interference from mobile phone towers.
This week an entirely different CCD article appeared titled "No ORGANIC Bee Losses."
