16 different chemcals from make up and other personal care products are found in the blood stream of teenage girls. The average teen girl uses 17 personal care products everyday. In the study they tested for 25 different chemicals. Every girl in the study had between 11 and 16 chemicals in their bodies and levels that were extremely high!
The chemicals that were found interefer with hormone development, reproductive problems, obesity, and cancer rates. Look at the rates of these diseases in young people. The rates of premature puberty, cancer and diabetes are through the roof.
Is it possible?
How is it possible?
Doesn't the skin protect you from harm?
Think about this, drug manufactures have discovered that medications can be delivered into the blood stream, bypassing liver metabolismm by appling the drug directly to the skin by using patches and creams.
Then add this bit of information, the first thing you do in the morning is shower. The hot water of the shower opens the pores of the skin allowing even more chemicals to enter into the body. Couple this with the facct that teenage girls are exposing themselves to the chemicals from as many as 17 different products each morning and you have a disaster waiting to happen.
What can you do about it?
Would you rather use products containing harmaful chemicals on your skin?
