At the turn of the last century, cancer rates
were thought to be as low as 1 in 1000.What has
happened?
  • The American Cancer Society states

1 in 2 men will develop cancer in their lifetime
1 in 3 women will develop cancer in their lifetime
  • 100 billion dollars is spent annually on
    treatment alone which has led some to believe
    that this money making machine may not be going
    away any time soon.

Cancer Facts
  • The Investigative Branch of Congress has isolated
    125 known cancer causing agents in personal care
    products.
  • OSHA determined that 884 ingredients are
    considered toxic.
  • The European Union has already banned over 3,000
    of the same ingredients commonly used in America.
  • It is estimated that personal care products aimed
    at children, are almost always the most harmful
  • Massive numbers of Phthalates and other endocrine
    disruptors are commonly found in personal care
    products.

When they determined that tobacco caused cancer
and birth defects, why wasnt it banned?
  • In 1984 Congress enacted the Comprehensive
    Smoking Education Act of 1984 requiring four
    specific health warnings
  • SURGEON GENERAL WARNING
  • Smoking causes lung cancer, heart disease,
    emphysema, and may complicate pregnancy
  • Quitting smoking now greatly reduces serious
    risks to your health
  • Smoking by pregnant women may result in fetal
    injury, premature birth, and low birth weight
  • Cigarette smoke contains carbon monoxide

Warning Labels
  • You will nearly always find a warning label on
    your toothpaste, and some shaving gels and
    deodorants.
  • Why are these warning labels on Personal Care
    Products?

6
When they determined that ingredients in
toothpaste caused cancer, why werent they banned?
  • DIRECTIONS Adults and children 2 years and
    older.
  • Apply toothpaste onto a soft bristle toothbrush.
    Brush thoroughly after meals or at least twice a
    day or as directed by a dentist or physician.
    Children under 6 years To minimize swallowing,
    use a pea sized amount supervise brushing until
    good habits are established. Children under 2
    years Ask a dentist or physician.

University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute
  • One study shows that more chemicals are absorbed
    through the skin than through the mouth.
  • Carcinogens travel through umbilical cord from
    the placenta to the unborn child

8
SKIN is the largest organ and it is NOT a
BARRIER to most toxins
  • 60 of all chemicals that are exposed to the skin
    are absorbed
  • The molecular weight of most ingredients in
    personal care products is small enough to
    penetrate the skin, and blood stream.

In fact It is a carrier.
