Bras hold the "girls" up and smooth out the silhouette of clothing. However, changing the shape of the breast means constriction. This constriction inhibits proper development of the lymphatic system, which is responsible for circulating out toxins and dead cells.
You don’t need a bra. Take a month off and see how your body feels. If you feel uncomfortable letting your breasts be free, you might opt for a tank top or sports bra.
Listen as Dr. Sydney Ross Singer joins Dr. Pamela Peeke to discuss what bras can do to the breasts and your overall health.
