Could my Oka-B flip-flops be the source of the estrogen pattern that showed up in my breast thermogram? Yes!
Oka-B (pictured above) and Skechers Shoes are proud of their SOY BASED Plastic SHOES! Are those cute shoes contributing to breast cancer and for men, how about those sport shoes contributing to man boobs?
Recently I purchased two pairs of Oka-B sandals after an old pair bit the dust - my other pair could go any minute and did not want to be without. Then I stumbled upon the shocking fact that Oka-B’s are made with soy! No mention of it being organic soy either, which means the likelihood of endocrine wrecking glyphosate (i.e., RoundUp - a known xenoestrogen) also being on board thanks to genetic modification is virtually certain, and the presence of plant phytoestrogens were a given.
Humans are the only mammals with sweat glands on the bottoms of their feet! Skin areas that sweat are more likely to be affected by EDC’s (endocrine disruptive chemicals) than non-sweating areas because the acidity of sweat assists in the breakdown of the EDC’s! So one is getting a double whammy of poison with soy plastics vs petroleum plastics! Rats, goodbye Oka-B’s!
Skechers, a hugely popular brand with its own stores is also proud of its “sustainable” soy based plastic but does it sustain humans or sabotage them hormonally?
Maybe it’s time to go back to wearing “beautiful” Birkenstock’s…
