Did you know that most shampoo is a chemical mixture of many toxic ingredients? These chemicals are very harmful to you and to the environment.
Even shampoos claiming they have “all-natural ingredients” aren’t safe and dangerous. Manufacturers of these still use things ammonium laurel sulphate. Doesn’t sound all-natural, right? My rule is – if you can’t eat it, then you shouldn’t put it on your body.
Here are the main toxic ingredient you’ll want to avoid in shampoo:
- Sulfates – Sodium lauryl and laureth sulfates are foaming agents and can be contaminated with 1,4 dioxane, a probable carcinogen.
- Certain preservatives – These preservatives including parabens are linked to breast cancer and hormone disruption. Parabens have been discovered in low concentrations in breast cancer tumors and have the ability to weakly mimic estrogen.
- Artificial fragrances – The term fragrance is a term for thousands of chemicals that include hormone disrupting phthalates, as well as skin irritants and allergens.
Petroleum products – Ingredients that come from non-renewable resources are not environmentally friendly.
11 WORST SHAMPOO BRANDS LINKED TO BRAIN AND KIDNEY DAMAGE, HEADACHES, ALLERGIES, AND LIVER TUMORS
If you are experiencing some health issues, the culprit may be your shampoo or other personal care products. Ingredients in most shampoo brands can cause asthma symptoms, sinusitis, allergies, and could even lead to cancer. Since your body can not recognize these ingredients, these chemicals wreak havoc with the immune system, causing viruses, colds, , and even fungal infections.
I recommend using all natural shampoos like these:
1. PURACY NATURAL SHAMPOO
Every ingredient in Puracy shampoo consists of plants or minerals. It contains a lot of nutrients like soap bark, ivy, black walnut leaf, ginseng, vitamins E and B5, aloe vera juice, and matricaria extract.
2. ACURE CLARIFYING SHAMPOO
If you use a lot of product in your hair, clarifying shampoos will help to remove residual build-up and other impurities. Acure shampoo contains acai berry, blackberry, rosehips, pomegranate, sea buckthorn, aloe vera juice, rooibos leaf, sugar beets, calendula, matricaria, and coconut extracts.
YOU MUST DETOX FROM THIS LIFE LONG EXPOSURE
According to the Environmental Working Group, the average newborn baby has 287 known toxins in his or her umbilical cord blood. Can you imagine how many chemicals and toxins you have been exposed to in your life?
The most effective and inexpensive way to detox your body is to take spirulina. According to many recent scientific studies, spirulina helps support healthy detoxification of built up toxins from the body by binding to them. Thus, these toxins are carried out of the body through natural processes of elimination.
