Apparently, there's something special in the water over there that's making British women's breasts bigger.

Okay, so the increase in average size from 34B to 36C has nothing to do with the water, but neither does it have to do with an increase in plastic surgery.

According to experts, British breasts are growing due to a complex combination of factors ranging from diet, hormones and the environment. There has been an increased exposure to estrogen, the compound used in hormone replacement therapy. However, women are also exposed to the false hormone through the environment, and while the resulting larger breasts might be cosmetically desirable, estrogen has been linked to an increased risk of breast cancer.

Additional factors that have increased British breast size are the increase in obesity which comes from diet and the increased consumption of alcohol.
