The Facts – About Ingredients
Written By: RK Wendling November 1, 2006 ©Copyright 2010 Naturally You Skin Care & Cosmetics IncIt’s a fact!
More than one-third of us will develop cancer within our lifetime and one-fourth will die from the disease!? Some believe that this may be linked to the $30 billion spent on cosmetics and body care products annually which, according to the Journal of the American Medical Association, contain more than 5000 different chemicals and ingredients. Predominantly, a good rule of thumb is if you can’t pronounce the ingredients, they are likely chemical compounds! What are you putting on your skin?
DEA (diethanolamine) and cocamide-DEA produce liver and kidney cancer in mice. DEA detergents are found in high concentrations in shampoos, conditioners, body lotions, creams and bubble baths, liquid dishwashing and laundry soaps. An article excerpt by Dr. Samuel Epstein M.D., of the Cancer Prevention Coalition, states, “Lifelong use of these products thus clearly poses voidable cancers risks to the great majority of U.S Consumers, particularly infants and young children.”
Your skin is more of a carrier than a barrier.
Exposures to known carcinogens in cosmetics and personal care products present special risks due to their application to large areas of our skin, and the frequent presence of sodium lauryl sulfate, which facilitates absorption. SLS is a known cause of cancer, hair loss and constant skin implications resulting from its prolonged use. Here’s an excerpt from the Journal of the American College of Toxicology (Vol 1, No. 7, 1983). “SLS can damage the immune system; causing separation of skin layers and inflammation of skin.” Naturally You Skin Care lists all ingredients contained in its products. We’re proud of the ingredients we use and have nothing to hide!
