Cancer and Cosmetics -

...........................................................
Everyday we are exposed to numerous pollutants and you would have to be incredibly
deluded not to make some association between modern society and ill health.
“You
have cancer” must be one of the most frightening phrases a person can hear and fortunately
my recent scare proved benign. However, with 1 in 2 of all men and 1 in 3
of all
women developing some form of cancer in their lifetime it’s something many will experience.
In 1901 it was 1 in 8000.
Cancer has become an epidemic with over 200 different types.
Some will argue the increased incidence is due to the rise in life expectancy. Admittedly,
we do live much longer now than 100 years ago but that alone does not explain the
increase.
Cancer is not an infectious disease and appears to be related to advances
in our civilised life-
toxins and carcinogens and in isolated communities where synthetic and
toxic chemicals are uncommon and pollution is rare, so is cancer.
The disease is
caused when constant exposure overwhelms the body’s natural immune system and we
lose the ability to purge the toxins and chemicals. The culmulative effect causes
healthy cells to mutate and eventually critical life processes are interrupted leading
to death.
Scientific research indicates that diet and life style play a major role
in the prevention or onset of cancer. Chemicals are everywhere – in the foods we
eat, our water, the products we use and the air we breathe.
As a nation we are better
fed than we have ever been and yet when it comes to vitamins and minerals we are
incredibly malnourished. Our over farmed soils are depleted of natural nutrients
and the wide spread use of pesticides,insecticides and fertilisers as well as airborne
industrial pollutants makes our crops a hazard to health.
The body is an amazing
machine but even the strongest immune system is hard pressed to battle the amount
of chemicals we are faced with on a daily basis.
Life style choices such as smoking
and sun worship are two common causes of cancer despite all the health warnings.
Of course not all smokers develop cancer but the likelihood ofdeveloping it increases
with the number of years a person smokes.
Skin cancer is caused by excessive exposure
to intense sunlight and the the sun’s A,B and C rays. The effects of the C rays are
largely unknown, but the B rays cause sunburn on the surface of the skin. The A rays
penetrate deeper and damage cells way below the surface. This can lead to wrinkles,a
leathery texture and the potential to develop skin cancer.
You can protect yourself
from sun damage by limiting exposure, staying covered as much as possible and using
a high quality NON-
spectrum of solar rays.
However, many over the counter sun block creams and lotions contain known carcinogens
and toxic chemicals which build up over time and predispose sun bathers to melanoma.
Health and beauty do not always go together.
Your skin is the largest eliminatory
organ in the body. It is a two-
through hair follicles and sebaceous
glands. One square inch of skin contains 65 hairs and 100 sebaceous glands.
Currently,
impurities in the personal care products industry are not regulated with very few
restrictions. It is stricter in Europe but in USA the FDA admit
"Cosmetics and their
ingredients are not required to undergo approval before they are sold. Manufacturers
can use any ingredients, except for 10 prohibited substances, without government
review".
This means if you put a chemical compound on your skin your body is likely
to absorb it. You have a lot of hairs and sebaceous glands.
Despite the known dangers
associated with many of the ingredients in cosmetics, skin care and personal care
products, some manufacturers continue to use them. This
is because they are inexpensive
and can be used to create products with a look, feel and smell that can be marketed
successfully at huge profits.
Health is not an issue.
A UK study discovered traces
of methylparabens in breast cancer tumours. This harmful synthetic chemical is commonly
used in body creams, lotions, washes, anti-
The only way
to ensure health and beauty really do go together is to seek 100% harmful synthetic
chemical free cosmetics and skin care products.
Fortunately there is a company which
produce a range made from purely natural ingredients Certified Organic to Food Standards.
These are so safe you could even eat them.
Currently the only skin care products
on the planet to have submitted to independent 3rd party certification, the active
ingredients feed and nourish the skin with bio available nutrients.

Now doesn't that
give you peace of mind?
