 of every product you buy:
                   
 Food, Clothes, Soaps, Cleaners, Detergents, Cosmetics,
 Shampoos, House Paints and Disinfectants, Candles,
 Candies, Cold and Coughs syrups or protein drinks...

  Please Remember...

    
         It is estimated that  80% of all cancer comes from environmental pollution...

         Chemicals that come in contact with:

         Our Skin,  the largest organ of our body

         Our Water,  we  drink and bathe

         Our Air,  we breathe

         Our Foods,  we  eat

         Anything that comes in contact with your skin absorbs into the

         bloodstream in 26 seconds !

        Vapors from chemical products are harmful to your health !

        The chemicals listed below are commonly found in your body lotions, shampoo, conditioners, toothpastes, deodorants and are known to be harmful to your body !!!

PARABENS;  METHYL, PROPYL, ETHYL AND BUTYL PARABENS are used in 99% of all our cosmetic and care products, and now our food supply.

The good side is they kill bacteria and enzymes so the products won't break down and have longer shelf life.   The dark side is they are known to cause cancer.  They seep into the body tissues after being applied to your skin. In a recent study of breast tumors, parabens were found in every tumor they dissected.  Parabens can "act like" estrogen, which can then drive the growth of breast tumors.

PROPYLENE GLYCOL:  This product is used in anti-freeze, brake fluid, paint, floor wax, laundry detergent and tabacco.  This is a harmful synthetic being used in all body care products and cosmetics, along with processed food, dog food and some snacks. There is a safety sheet on the porduct called Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) that reads: "implicated in contact dermatitis." (Contact dermatitis is a skin reaction that occurs after you have been exposed to a substance that either irritates your skin or triggers and allergic response. Fluid-filled bumps or blisters,tenderness and redness of the skin often occur with contact dermatitis. You may also notice oozing cracks or fissures in the reddened, irritated skin areas. Usually, these symptoms will occur only in the areas that actually came into contact with the irritant or allergen. The affected areas will probably itch and burn) Propylene glycol is also implicated in kidney damage and liver abnormalities, due to its ability to inhibit skin cell growth.  This chemical may be harmful when absorbed through the skin or inhaled, resulting in eye irritation, skin irritation, stomach and digestive disturbances, nausea, headache, vomiting and central nervous system depression.

MINERAL OIL /  BABY OIL :  The main ingredient in baby oils and baby products such as baby wipes is BHT :

BUTALYATED HYDROXYTOLUENE, this product is manufactured by removing gasoline and kerosene from cured petroleum.  BHT is  know to cause contact dermatitis and is known to cause cancer and to have an adverse affect on the reproductive organs of young animals.
Of course this is absorbed through the babies skin, but also by putting their fingers, hands and toes in their mouths.  Think of the possible effects of this on their delicate systems: the brain and nerve, digestive, reproductive and others that are just forming.

SODIUM LAURYL SULFATE: This is a caustic chemical, chemical that burns or destroys things, especially living cells, that allows products like shampoo to spread out and penetrate more easily, and is also used in engine degreasers, car wash detergents, chemical cleaners, and body care products like: shampoos, deodorants and almost all toothpastes.  This additive can damage the immune system, causes eye development retardation in children, cataracts
in adults. It has been known to cause major problems in heart, liver, lungs and brain, flaky skin and dry hair. This substance is used regularly in clinical studies to irritate skin to test the effects of other substances.

FLUORIDE: A well known and controversial additive to toothpaste, community water systems and in many food and drinks to prevent tooth decay.  While the dental community in general has supported the addition of fluoride to decrease tooth decay, there are many new studies demostrating the opposite is true.  Even the original promoter, a dentist, admitted under oath that this is not a remedy for tooth decay.  it has now been shown that fluoridation actually promotes an adverse health condition called Dental Fluorosis ( discoloration, brittleness and pitting of the teeth). Fluoride is labeled by the EPA as a poison.

 Fluoride has been linked to about 10,000  cancer deaths yearly. Some of the other symptons associated with fluoride ingestion are: hip fractures, bone cancer, thyroid cancer, irritable bowel syndrome, allergies, headaches, chronic fatigue, joint pain, muscle weakness, tingling in the extremities, excessibve thirst, loss of mental clarity, Down's syndrome, genetic change to sperm cells, miscarriages, birth defects. it is known to negatively affect the immune system and bones.  Many of these symptoms do go away when fuoride is not used.

ALUMINUM: Found in anti-perspiration deodorants, antacids, baking powder, self-rising flour, cake and pancake mixes, nondairy creamers, table salts, processed cheese, and city water.  Aluminum is known for its effects on brain tissue. Research has shown it to be a major role in Alzheimer's disease.  Patients with Alzheimer's have been known to have four times the normal concentration of aluminum in their brain cells. There is no requirement for aluminum in the human body !

 SODIUM ACID SULFATE OR OXALATE OR HYPOCHORIC ACID
 ( Bathroom and toilet cleaners )

DIETHYLENE GLYCOL  ( Window Cleaners ) 

There are hundreds of  harmful and toxic chemicals being use in household products.
They are toxic in nature, their vapors irritates skin, eyes and tissues of the respiratory and digestive system, some are known to cause cancer to the lungs, stomach and urinary system.
They cause nervous system damage as well as to  the reproductive system.
Research studies in University Laboratories and Medical Colleges in United State indicate that
several of these Chemicals and Petroleum Products penetrate into the eyes, skin as well as brain, heart, liver and bladder tissues.

ALL THESE PRODUCTS CAN BE COMMONLY FOUND IN COSMETICS AND BODY/SKIN CARE PRODUCTS LIKE TOOTHPASTE, SHAMPOO, CONDITIONERS, SOAPS AND DEODORANTS.

Since 1980 I have been teaching and assisting persons suffering from environmental discomforts and/or exposure to chemical products. I promise you that we can find ways to heal the discomforts by creating a Free of Toxins environment in our home, office, car or studios. With just one visit to your office, home or studio, I am able to help you and those you love, create a healthy environment. We can replace every toxic product with a non- toxic one. We create a healthy environment.
