Quick guide for Personal Care Toxins

Children have been shown to have even higher absorption rates, making them more vulnerable to the systemic effects of toxic topical exposures.

Want a few easy to remember ingredients to cross check in your hair, skin, and body products?

❌ BHA…toxic to the liver, immune, and nervous system. Suspected carcinogen.
❌ BHT…toxic to the brain, nervous, and respiratory systems.
❌ Parabens…well known for endocrine disruption, neurotoxicity, and carcinogenic effects.
❌ Synthetic Dye… anything with a color word such as “red” or “blue” has been found toxic to the nervous system and reproductive organs.
❌ Fragrance/Parfum… a loophole in the industry allows these words to be a whole slew of chemical ingredients that don’t need disclosed. If you can smell it, it’s already in your body.
