WALKATHON TO PROMOTE BREAST CANCER

THOSE WHO CAUSE BREAST CANCER SEEK THE CURE

Thousands of things cause breast cancer. One thing makes it
grow when a woman is unfortunate enough to get it.

The key factor in breast cancer growth is a powerful growth
hormone manufactured by the human body called IGF-I. That
same exact hormone (a miracle of nature) is manufactured
within a cow's body. Every sip of milk, bite of cheese, and
spoonful of yogurt contains that hormone.

THE REAL SCIENCE:

Kroger supermarkets and Yoplait Yogurt will donate ten cents
from the sale of every container of Yoplait yougurt sold to
cancer research.

That money will be donated to the Susan G. Komen Breast
Cancer Foundation which sponsors a walkathon for breast
cancer survivors.

THE IRONY

This year, walkathon participants will find a 20' tall
inflatable Yoplait yogurt container at the finish line. In
addition, those women who have had breast cancer will be
treated to free hormone-laced yogurt at the conclusion of
their march.

KROGER SUPERMARKETS

The Kroger Company is headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio.
They are one of America's largest retail grocery chains with
NEARLY 2,400 locations.

KOMEN FOUNDATION

The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation was established
in 1982 by Nancy Brinker to honor the memory of her sister,
Susan G. Komen, who died from breast cancer at the age of
36.
