This is by far my favorite!


¡        According to the EPA, more than 72,000 synthetic chemicals have been produced in the last 60 years.  Less than 2% of these chemicals have been tested for toxicity, mutagenic, carcinogenic, or birth defects
¡        80% exposure to pesticides happens inside; indoor air quality is 5 times worse than outdoor air quality
¡        FDA regulates food and drugs but VERY LITTLE cleaning, personal care and cosmetics
¡        Formaldehyde, phenol, benzene, toluene, xylene are found in common household cleaners and cosmetics
¡        These chemicals are cancer causing and toxic to the immune system


According To The National Cancer Prevention Coalition… These are the Top 6 Cancer Causing Products in the average home!
1. Johnson’s Baby Powder
2. Crest Tartar Control Toothpaste
3. Clairol Hair Products
4. V05 Hair Conditioners
5. Ajax Cleaner
6. Lysol Disinfectant

Facts:
1 in 3 women with cancer, 1 in 2 men in their lifetime- 36 children diagnosed a day according to American Cancer Society
    ---60-70% all cancers preventative with diet and toxin avoidance
#1 killer of Americans is heart disease- someone dies of heart attack every 36 seconds in USA- “Preventing Heart Disease Jan 2010 ”

Asthma has increased 600% since 1980- 20million Americans- leading chronic illness among children-- “The Canadian Lung Association”

Nutrition/Vitamins:
-Only 1 in 5 Americans eat 5 servings of vegetables and fruits per day
-According to the USDA, it would require over 70 servings of spinach today to equal the nutritional value of one serving of spinach in 1949 since our soils are so mineral deficient

Chlorine Bleach:
-300,000 times stronger as a human carcinogen than DDT
-Last year, over 25,000 children were exposed to or poisoned by household chlorine bleach- Source: US EPA Pesticides: topical & chemical fact sheet

409: Linked to cancer, reproductive disorders, kidney and liver damage--- fumes linger in air 72hours after spraying.

Lysol: All Lysol products are registered pesticides



Tide Laundry Detergent: Contains trisodium nitrilotriacetate, a carcinogen  ---wikicancer.org
Cascade: Outlawed in 16 states in the US because of the damage phosphates have done to our waterways- far more than any oil spill in US history

Personal Care Products:
-Quaternium 15 is a Formaldehyde releaser- known under 30 different trade names
-9 out of 10 products on store shelves contain it---- Formaldehyde is a Type A Carcinogen (cancer causing) used as a preservative
     …it is in Johnson and Johnson Baby Shampoo, Aveeno, Eucerin, Lubriderm and majority of cosmetics.

Cosmetics:
Banned in Europe and Japan because we have 0 regulation and many products in US contain Formaldehyde, Mercury etc….

Daine Sawyer new story

Thanks Maley Williams Walsh: Good insight from a Diane Sawyer news story...wonder if folks will begin to take heed now that this subject is going mainstream....'The average woman uses, on average, 12 beauty and personal care products a day; thus exposing herself to over 120 chemicals, most of which have never been tested for safety on humans. How many beauty products do you use? What about your children? Shampoo, body wash/soap, moisturizer? How many chemicals are listed (and probably not listed) as ingredients in their personal care products? Europe has banned: 1200 of chemicals found in personal care products.
The US? Only 10 of these chemicals have been banned!' So thankful to find safer products over 5 years ago and am doing what I can in my household to protect our family...be your families advocate and get educated.
