Glycol - Ingredients to Avoid #15

INGREDIENTS TO AVOID #15

GLYCOL – (propylene, butylenes, etc) a synthetic petrochemical mix that has been known to cause allergic and toxic reactions, and has been linked through contamination to cancer, developmental/reproductive issues, neurotoxicity and endocrine disruption.

It can also cause allergic reactions. (Dirty Dozen, Dr David Suzuki) ... "it was also found that PG provoked allergic reactions in patients with eczema and other skin allergies"

SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) - Ingredients to Avoid #7

INGREDIENTS TO AVOID #7 - SODIUM LAURYL SULFATE

In addition to carcinogenic concerns, SLS has been implicated in hair loss as it can irritate and possibly damage the hair follicles. When used in shampoos, it can dry out the hair shaft and dull the hair by taking away its natural luster ... SLS has been identified as one of the primary skin irritants that are used in body care products today. It has the ability to easily penetrate the dermal layers and enter the blood stream. The caustic lathering agent easily destroys the lipid layers that keep the skin smooth and supple ... most soaps, shampoos and moisturizers that contain SLS also contain a host of chemicals, a huge cause for concern since this is typically what is more likely to breach the protective layers of the skin. When you use products with both SLS and other chemical toxins and preservatives, you are inviting these other toxins to more easily penetrate the skin and enter the blood stream. SLS has shown up in the tissues of the brain, liver, heart and other vital organs. This strongly suggests it is retained long term in several bodily tissues."
