Toxins in Health & Beauty Products
By: Tam, 2005

 

A POTENTIAL HEALTH ISSUE
THAT’S AN EVERYDAY THREAT CAN
BE CHANGED … IF YOU JUST PAY
CLOSER ATTENTION …
METHO-CHLORAL SOMETHING,
COCA-MIDE M-E-A, AND
DI-METHI-CONE … DO ANY OF THESE
NAMES SOUND FAMILIAR TO YOU?

 YOU’RE PROBABLY SHAKING YOUR
HEAD NO… BUT THEY SHOULD
BECAUSE THEY’RE COMMON
INGREDIENTS COMPANIES PUT INTO
YOUR PERSONAL CARE PRODUCTS.

ACCORDING TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL
WORKING GROUP … A DC BASED
INVESTIGATIVE ORGANIZATION …
EIGHTY-NINE PERCENT OF PRODUCTS
LIKE PANTENE AND SUAVE CONTAIN
INGREDIENTS THAT HAVE NOT BEEN
EVALUATED FOR SAFETY. THE FDA
DOESN’T REQUIRE APPROVAL BEFORE
COMPANIES MARKET THEIR PRODUCTS.

THAT GIVES THE THIRTY-FIVE-BILLION
DOLLAR INDUSTRY FREE REIGN TO
SUBJECT CONSUMERS TO HAZARDOUS
MATERIALS THAT ARE SCIENTIFICALLY
PROVEN TO CAUSE CANCER … POSE AS
POTENTIAL PREGNANCY DEFECTS …
AND RELEASE HARMFUL IMPURITIES
INTO OUR BODIES … JUST TOO NAME A
FEW ISSUES.
