Here are just some of the most common chemical culprits

• Propylene Glycol (PG)
  Propylene Glycol is a wetting agent and along with a related chemical ethylene glycol is used in industry as the main component of brake fluid and antifreeze. Also used extensively in paint and varnishes. It is also found in your shampoo, toothpaste, hair conditioner beauty creams and lotions, cleansers, makeup and is very common in children's personal care items and many other products you use on a daily basis. Again this is a potentially dangerous chemical. Food manufacturers even used it for years in ice cream and other foods they did not want to set too hard when frozen. At least the government stepped in and forced its removal from many of our food supplies. However it still remains in many food products and is another reason why you should avoid those e-numbers like the plague. But what about our toothpaste and other lotions and potions we put on ourselves and on the skin of our loved ones? Propylene glycol and derivatives of this chemical are found in a vast array of personal care toiletries and cosmetics.
   

• Ethylene glycol has severe adverse health effects and has been found to cause kidney damage and liver abnormalities. It also damages cell membranes causing rashes, dry skin, contact dermatitis and surface damage to the skin. First cousin to ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, has been noted as toxic to human cell cultures in the laboratory. The American Academy of Dermatologists published a clinical review in January 1991 that showed propylene glycol caused a significant number of reactions and was a primary irritant to the skin even in low levels of concentration of around 5%. Propylene glycol routinely occurs in the top 3 listing of ingredients in any given product, indicating that it is present in high concentration.
   

• Polyethylene Glycol (PEG)
  A related agent to PG. Used in moisturisers and face creams... it is also the main ingredient in oven cleaners!
   

• Sodium Hydroxide
  Found in toothpaste, shampoos and soaps. A powerful caustic chemical associated with sodium chloride, a powerful oxidant. Causes severe skin irritation and can permanently damage the eyes. Used as a pipeline cleaner in industry. Users are warned to wear full protective clothing when handling the concentrate! It is in your toothpaste for goodness sake!!! It causes mouth ulcers and sensitises people to other chemicals. It is vital to prevent this dangerous caustic substance from making contact with your skin or ingesting it. If you have any skin problems or auto-immune dysfunction then it becomes vital to keep it out of your system.
   

• Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA)
  An organic acid produced by anaerobic respiration. Skin care products containing AHA exfoliate and not only destroy skin cells, but the skin's protective barrier as well. Long-term skin damage may result from its use.
   

• Aluminium
  A metallic element used extensively in the manufacture of aircraft components, prosthetic devices and as an ingredient in antiperspirants, antacids and antiseptics. It is even used as a flocking agent in water supplies! Implicated with breast cancer and Alzheimer's disease. Up until recently it was even present in free flowing salt at 1% concentration and found in manufactured cheese slices! Check you deodorant, cheese slices and salt now. If aluminium is present throw it out! It's just not worth the risk. Aluminium cookware used to be common place once. Perhaps this has contributed greatly to the 1 in 2 incidence of Alzheimer's disease in the over 70 age group. Many forward thinking European countries have actually banned cookware made from aluminium.
   

• Sodium Fluoride
  Found in toothpastes and water supplies. A known toxin and carcinogen. Fluorides used in drinking water supplies are a toxic, non-biodegradable, environmental pollutant officially classified as a contaminant by the US Environmental Protection Agency. Shocking though it may seem, the reality is, this chemical is simply hazardous industrial waste. A by-product of chemical fertiliser manufacturing, gleaned from this industry's pollution scrubbers... which is largely disposed of in our water supplies. Far from protecting teeth it is shown to cause dental fluorosis in susceptible individuals and bone demineralisation in adults as they age. In other words it causes osteoporosis! It is another toxic chemical that adds to the load the body must deal with and should not be part of your daily regime. I quote " Fluoride plays a significant role in contributing to the deaths of 10,000 people per year from cancer alone... 40 million cases of arthritis... allergic reactions in 2 million people and dental deformity in 8 million children!" Dr. Dean Burke and Dr. John Yiamouyiannis, National Cancer Institute, USA, 1997.
   

• Fluoride is a toxic by-product of aluminium smelter and as mentioned above, of fertiliser manufacture. It was first used as a very effective RAT POISON! Since then it has been tipped into our water supplies and used in toothpaste regardless of the known toxic side effects. Perhaps there is something going on here we don't know about!!!!!
  Get fluoride out of your system NOW!
