Eli Lilly is Milking Cancer
Eli Lilly is the only company in the world making and distributing rBGH, an artificial growth hormone found in many dairy products that is linked to increased risk of breast cancer. Eli Lilly also manufactures drugs to “prevent” and treat breast cancer. That's a highly lucrative profit cycle and one we call pinkwashing. We want to get rBGH out of our food supply completely, and we need your help to do it. Help keep the pressure on Eli Lilly -- tell them to sign BCAction’s Pledge to Prevent Pinkwashing.
telling the truth
A Legacy of Action.
At Breast Cancer Action, we talk about breast cancer as the disease that it is - a disease that has environmental causes,a disease that kills more women of color than white women, and when it comes to device and drug approval at the FDA, a disease that is dominated by the pharmaceutical industry and not patients.
we will not be bought
Always on the Lookout.
BCAction is the only national breast cancer organization to not accept funding from entities that profit from or contribute to cancer. Our independence allows us to advocate for policy changes that protect affected communities.
