“In January 2011, a study by the Mayo Clinic found in women with dense breast tissues 75% of cancers were missed by mammography alone. 40%-50% of women have dense breast tissue yet 95% of women are unaware of their own breast density and 90% don’t know that density increases the risk of breast cancer development.”

The truth about mammography screenings is that for every 1 woman that discovers she truly has cancer through mammography screenings and recovers cancer free, 6 women are scared into treatment through misdiagnosis, false positives and eventually deadly treatments of radiation, chemotherapy and sometimes disfiguring surgery.
