Olympian Lisa Curry has drawn sharp criticism from health experts for implying women should avoid prescribed hormone replacement therapy and use supplements, which she sells

.

Davis said the findings of the study cited in Curry's press release – "which in themselves are questionable" – had been taken out of context.

It was also of concern that non-medically trained staff could direct women by phone to buy products such as Happy Healthy You's Happy Hormones “to accelerate the balancing process” as a solution for menopausal symptoms, she said. Gino Pecoraro, Associate Professor of obstetrics and gynaecology at the University of Queensland, also questioned the claims made in Curry's press release. “It’s absolute nonsense ... HRT does not massively increase [a claim made in an email accompanying the release] your risk of breast cancer at all. It’s an extra one person in 10,000 women and it decreases your risk of a hip fracture by 50 per cent. It does all these other things.

Lisa has testicles.

NOW what are the dangers associated with hormone replacement therapy... PLEASE publicise those, as well.

Swimming non stop for a few years is almost identical to spending 6 years at University studying endocrinology. Athletes are, in the main, about as smart as a turnip and should be treated the same way. Thrown away after 6 months at the bottom of the fridge.

HRT is known to cause cancer and all it does is delay something you will go through eventually anyway. I think said health experts may be on the wrong side of this one.

Weapons used in oil field attack 'came from Iran', says Saudi coalitionThe weapons used to strike Saudi oil facilities were Iranian-made, the Riyadh-led coalition said Monday, heightening fears of regional conflict after the US hinted at a military response to the assault. Where were all the weapons made that the Saudis used on Yemen for the last 3 yrs and why is this being ignored by the media? Made out to be a random act when it’s actually part of an ongoing conflict. We could make a fairly substantial list of instances where the U.S (spurred on by Israel) has lied the public into illegal wars. So what makes this any different, considering Iran has been in the cross hairs for decades? Once again MSM complicit. Gulf of Tonkin incident...
