My site is centered around the idea that you can starve cancer by countering the angiogenic process. I hope of you good luck with your work in the future and I'll definitely keep an eye on you.

The researchers, at the University of Reading in the U.K., injected MCF7 human breast cancer cells with triclosan. Triclosan significantly stimulated the growth of new MCF7 human breast cancer cells. Scary stuff! Here's the citation: Gee, R. H., Charles, A., Taylor, N., & Darbre, P. D. (2008). Oestrogenic and androgenic activity of triclosan in breast cancer cells. Journal of Applied Toxicology, 28 (1), 78 – 91. Darbre is a fascinating researcher, by the way. Her research is credible and cutting-edge.

I remember seeing a news report about how Triclosan can be found in the body of adults and children. Scary stuff! After that report I decided to limit my use of antibacterial soaps and decided not to let my children use it. I'm so glad your company is offering a safe alternative for families! Dr. Weiss,

I would be delighted to collaborate with you and the Seventh Generation team on a blog post or series. The Triclosan issue is critical not just because it is dangerous chemical in widespread use but because it holds the potential to wake consumers up to the power of their choices. If we engage in open and constructive dialogue, anything is possible. Gregor,
