Headaches Linked to Reduced Breast Cancer

According to a study from the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle, women who suffer from migraine headaches have a 30 percent lower risk of developing breast cancer. The research, led by Dr. Christopher Li, discovered a probable hormonal relationship between the migraines and breast cancer.

So, if I understand this latest research correctly, when the little lady says "Not tonight, Honey, I have a headache," it means the old man can worry less about breast cancer. And, naturally, if Mr. Jones is stumbling around looking like he could eat concrete and spit nails, you can be sure that Mrs. Jones will never be a breast cancer victim.
