Breast Cancer Risk May Be Linked to Toxic Environmental Factors

Here's a link to a great article and report with information about the ongoing risk of breast cancer and environmental factors.
Cancer can take decades to develop, and over time we're all exposed to thousands of compounds.

Connecting the dots isn't easy. But here's what we do know:

• The report found the strongest evidence for secondhand smoke; chemicals in gas fumes, car exhaust and some work environments; and solvents in dry cleaning, paint, and paint thinners.
• Hormone-like chemicals in plastics, pesticides, and elsewhere could also be a problem.
