After I read this report by Dr Epstein I stopped using main stream shampoos. You need to protect your Family NOW!
Stop using main stream shampoo immediately!
Nitrosamine: According to Dr. Epstein, "We've known since 1976 that DEA will react with nitrites which are present, as preservatives or contaminants, in personal care products, to produce a carcinogen known as nitrosodiethanolamine. This is found in virtually any cosmetic that contains DEA. Consumers have been exposed without any information and without any guidance whatsoever!
In 1979 the FDA warned the cosmetic industry that DEA was dangerous because of this. The cosmetic industry ignored the warning! While over in Europe, strong action was taken to phase out the use of DEA." Padimate-O (also known as octyl dimethyl PABA): Act by releasing nitrites which combine with DEA to form *nitrosamines. Found in cosmetics, especially sunscreens. "The most prudent consumers will prefer sunscreens without padimate-O," states Dr. Epstein.
Popular shampoos contain toxic chemicals linked to nerve damage
Researchers at the National Institutes of Health have found a
correlation between an ingredient found in shampoos and nervous systemdamage. The experiments were conducted with the brain cells of rats andthey show that contact with this ingredient called methylisothiazoline,or MIT <http://www.newstarget.com/003325.html> , causes neurological
damage.
Which products contain this chemical compound MIT? Head and Shoulders,Suave, Clairol and Pantene Hair Conditioner all contain this ingredient.
Researchers are concerned that exposure to this chemical by pregnantwomen could put their fetus at risk for abnormal brain development. Inother people, exposure could also be a factor in the development ofAlzheimer's disease and other nervous system disorders.
The chemical causes these effects by preventing communication between the nervous system and brain function on a system of neural networks, the slowing of this network will suppress and impair the normal function of the brain and nervous system.
These finding were presented December 5th at the American Society for
Cell Biology annual meeting.
I have frequently warned readers about the dangers of using brand-namepersonal care <http://www.householdpoisons.org/001383.html> products.
The vast majority of these products contain toxic chemical compoundslike MIT that contribute to cancer
<http://www.healthfactor.info/001264.html> , liver disorders and
neurological diseases. In fact, this chemical, MIT, is just one of
dozens of such chemicals that are found in personal care products.
Why are these dangerous personal care products allowed to remain on themarket? Because the FDA, which is responsible for regulating theseproducts, spends almost no time, money or effort actually investigatingthe safety of such products. Instead, the FDA spends the vast majorityof its time approving new prescription drugs<http://www.badmedicine.info/001688.html> rather than protecting thepublic against the dangers from such drugs or personal care productslike shampoos, soaps, deodorants <http://www.hometoxins.com/001538.html> and fragrance products.
In fact, it may surprise you to learn that manufacturers can put
practically any chemical they want into shampoos, even if it is a
hazardous chemical listed in the RTECS database of toxicity and even ifit is considered a toxic waste chemical by the EPA. The FDA allows all sorts of chemicals to be used in these products, including chemicals that are known carcinogens and that contribute to liver failure and nervous system disorders. How's that for protecting public health?
If you thought prescription drugs were dangerous, just take a look at the toxic chemicals found in personal care products used by virtuallyall Americans every single day. Americans bathe themselves in toxic chemicals and they do it by buying and using products made by brand name companies that have premier shelf positioning at convenience stores, grocery stores and discount clubs.
One of the more curious personal care products on the market is Herbal Essences Shampoo by Clairol. Personally, I think this product is a joke because it's trying to exploit the word "herbal" to imply that the shampoo is healthy, even though it is primarily made with the same ingredients as other popular shampoos. The first three ingredients, for example, are: water, sodium Laureth, and sodium Lauryl sulfate. Big deal, huh? You can find the same three ingredients in 99-cent shampoo at Wal-Mart <http://www.walmartwatch.info/000721.html> . Plus, the product contains all sorts of other ingredients that I personally would never
allow to touch my skin (like methylchloroisothiazolinone, if you can believe there's actually a chemical with a name that long). Think the color of the shampoo is from the herbs? Think again. Three other ingredients in the shampoo are Yellow #5, Orange #4 and Violet #2.
In other words, this is a shampoo product purchased by naive consumers, in my opinion. People who really know herbs and natural products
<http://www.newstarget.com/001383.html> can only laugh at a product like this. Want a real shampoo? Buy Olive Oil Shampoo from Heritage Products, available at most natural health
<http://www.healthfactor.info/001552.html> stores.
The bottom line to all of this, though, is that every week, it seems
like we see a new announcement about some toxic chemical found in personal care products that is related to either cancer or neurological disorders. And yet week after week these products are being sold by retailers and consumed in large quantities by the American people who remain oblivious to the real damage these products are causing to their health.
Once again, the solution here is to protect yourself by learning the
truth about these products and switching to products made with safe
ingredients. There are safe shampoos, safe soaps, and safe laundry
detergents, dishwashing liquids and even deodorant products. You don't
have to expose yourself to toxic chemicals to take care of personal
hygiene, because whether you agree with it or not, these disease-causing chemicals are going to remain quite legal in the use of personal care products for many years to come. Why? You can bet that the manufacturers of these products will fight against any attempt to regulate or outlaw these toxic chemicals. That's because the chemicals are convenient for such manufacturers. It's much the same way in which food manufacturers use sodium nitrate in bacon and other packaged meats. It's all about their convenience rather than protecting your health.
So, here's the idiot test for today: if I was standing on a street
corner with a bottle of colored liquid, and I told you that liquid
contained a toxic chemical that caused neurological disorders,
Alzheimer's disease and birth defects
<http://www.newstarget.com/001407.html> , would you buy that product from me and scrub it into your scalp under warm water?
Of course not. But if you're buying these popular shampoo products, that's exactly what you're doing right now. Such is the power of brand marketing in America.
