NIH Breast Cancer Study

A new study by the National Institutes of Health raises questions about black hair treatment and breast cancer.

A new study by the National Institutes of Health has raised a lot of questions about breast cancer, black women and permanent hair dye and hair straightening products.  The results are based on data from 46,709 women enrolled in what is titled the sister study.  Participants all had a sister diagnosed with breast cancer but were cancer-free themselves.  Is this sounding the alarm or just alarmist?
