Perhaps one of the most insidious things about about breast cancer and how we treat it is that some of the same companies that produce drugs to treat this disease also produce products that have been linked to or shown to cause cancer.  This year, Breast Cancer Action’s Think Before You Pink campaign targets one of those companies, Eli Lilly,

“the sole manufacturer of rBGH — the artificial growth hormone given to dairy cows that increases people’s risk of cancer. Eli Lilly also manufactures breast cancer treatment medications and a pill that “reduces the risk” of breast cancer.”

Please take a moment and let Eli Lilly know that Milking Cancer is not acceptable and needs to stop.

Note:  Eli Lilly is certainly not the only company that profits from both sides of the cancer fence.  See more here about  Novartis and Astra Zeneca, two other companies that engage in this despicable practice.
