Finding It Hard To Sleep.Finding Hard To Get To Sleep PERSONAL CARE PRODUCTS Current statistics show that one out of every two men and one out of every three women will get cancer. These are worrying figures and they are rising all the time. In spite of the billions of pounds worth of research, the number of killer diseases - cancer, heart disease, diabetes - are still on the increase. We all ask why, where do they come from, and how have they spread throughout the world at such an extraordinary rate. Part of the answer - because it’s certain that the answer has many parts - is perhaps, very close to home: in your own bathroom. Maybe we need to look very closely at things we have assumed to be safe, well researched products. For example, high concentrations of the chemicals used in deodorants and other personal care products, are found in breast tumours. Hopefully it gives you food for thought? It certainly woke me up! Research at Brunel University has shown that the body cannot detoxify itself of the chemicals it absorbs from deodorants and the tissues keep reabsorbing the toxins which can then cause breast cancer. An analysis was performed on the chemicals commonly found in personal care products such as shampoos, conditioners, deodorants, shower gels, shaving creams, skin creams and toothpaste. An approximate breakdown shows that out of 2,983 such chemicals: l) 884 were toxic to humans and 778 were acutely toxic, which means that if you were to swallow even a small amount, you should probably visit a poison centre. l) 218 can cause reproductive problems. l) 314 can cause foetal mutations and birth defects. l) 376 can cause eye problems, some serious. l) 125 are known to cause cancers. l) 146 cause tumours in animals. Not only are these chemicals in virtually everything we use on our own and our children’s bodies, but they are in the form of extremely tiny molecules. This means that they are easily absorbed by the skin, scalp and tender mucous membranes. Children are especially vulnerable because they can absorb very large amounts in relation to their body weight. Often so-called natural products also contain these harmful ingredients. If these chemicals are added to essential oils and natural herbs it may destroy any therapeutic properties they may have. Research from the University of Pittsburgh demonstrated that toxic chemicals are absorbed twice as fast through the skin as through the gut. Research from the University of Michigan shows that we can pass these and other carcinogens through the skin and placenta to the unborn foetus. Dr Samuel Epstein, Professor of Occupational and Environmental Medicine at the University of Illinois School of Public Health in Chicago, has said, “The personal care products we use daily are a witches’ brew of carcinogens and toxins….very few companies in the world….have taken them all out”. Because one particular company we know about has taken the trouble to rid these products of their harmful ingredients, we now have a choice. We can buy effective personal care products that do not endanger our own life and health or that of our children. We owe it to ourselves and to our world to start making a difference to these awful statistics. As all good health professionals will tell you an ounce of prevention is worth a ton of cure.
