Thursday, 06 September 2012
Today the too much sexualisation of Swedish women have seen them dashing in to all nuke and corners seeking medications that can assist them improve on their physical looks. One of those places where there has been increased dissatisfaction on the woman's body is their breasts.

As surgical enlargement is much more expensive, they have tended to seek other approaches such as using phony medications advertised and sold on the internet. There, there are different breast enlargement creams and capsules to buy, but doctors in Sweden warn of the usage of these products for they can disrupt the hormone levels in the body.

Many women are unhappy with their breasts, as evident in breast surgery which is one of the most common plastic surgery carried out in Sweden.
But such a surgical procedure costs between Skr30 000 and Skr60 000 and is also associated with risks. Last year there was a scandal when thousands of French-made breast implants were found to have ruptured and leaked chemicals inside the bodies of women who had them implanted in.

On the internet, several types of creams and capsules are sold which claim to enlarge the breasts. One of them is Easybust, where the active ingredient is said to be phytoestrogens.

According to science, Phytoestrogens are estrogen-like chemicals found in plant foods such as beans, seeds, and grains. Foods made from soybeans have some of the highest levels of phytoestrogens and have been studied the most. In spite of initial optimism, it is not clear whether eating foods rich in phytoestrogens decreases breast cancer risk.

The substances aims to make the breasts to swell just as when she is supposed to have her period.

But there is risk associated with such adjustments. According to Swedish television which reports on the issue, when contacts were made with doctors and researchers to seek how healthy the approach advertised by Easybust is to the body, it turned out that it is not good to have such supplements of phytoestrogens in the body.

The cardinal reason is that it would upset the hormonal balance of the body - and even lead to an increased risk of breast cancer.

Emily Sonestedt, nutritionist at Lund University, told Swedish television that there are studies showing that if one, as an adult Western woman begins to take in a lot phytoestrogens, so increases the risk of cancer.

"There are countries where everyone eats foods rich in phytoestrogens - like soybeans - and you start with it as a child. There seems no correlation between high levels of phytoestrogens and the existence of cancer. But when it comes to women in the West, there is indeed a connection. One should not start consuming large amounts of phytoestrogens as an adult."

Jan-Åke Gustafsson, Professor of Medical Nutrition at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, also warns of the dangers of adding body phytoestrogens.

So when the Easybust product was testes by the micro-chemical company, Eurofins in Uppsala, Sweden, it showed that Easybust contains three common phytoestrogens - Daidzin, daidzein and genistein. This means that the product could really have an effect on the body.

Breast Enlargement Products with phytoestrogens is within a legal gray area. They are neither makeup or the drugs used here controled or regulated by the authority.

Easybust is very anonymous but looking a the website it is Sweden based with has no phone number, no address or any other contact information. The only way to reach it is via an email form. However, a goods return address has customer service contact address as Go Active Sweden AB BOX 7371 103 9, Stockholm Sweden
