Toxins and stress create cancer and other disease
The Cancer Blog
Jun 8th 2007 1:01PM Many are unaware that modern personal care products expose us to serious dangers. 99% of all skincare products on today’s market contain harmful ingredients that can cause inflammation and irritation, even at the cellular level invisible to the naked eye. Daily exposure to ingredients such as preservatives, pesticides, fragrance and dye can cause inflammation that burdens the immune system, allowing it less time to repair and heal. Insufficient healing may lead to disease and even cancer. Why risk your health and well-being when a safe, natural alternative is available?
Hylunia products are completely free of all potentially toxic, harmful and irritating ingredients and contain only the purest pharmaceutical and natural ingredients specifically formulated to soothe, protect and heal the skin.
Notably, Hylunia products are:
Paraben Free:
Preservatives such as parabens (Methyl, Ethyl, Propyl and Butylparaben) are found in 95% of all personal care products. Parabens mimic estrogen and are linked to breast cancer, lowered sperm count, lowered testosterone levels, testicular atrophy, infertility, increased testicular cancer, and undescended testes.
Phthalate Free:
Dibutyl Phthalate is linked to cancer and is present in nail polish, perfume, soft plastics, and skin care products.
Formaldehyde Free:
Diazolidinyl, Urea, Imidazolidinyl Urea, and Quaternium 15 decomposes into formaldehyde and are considered carcinogens.
Dye Free:
Some FD&C and D&C dyes are considered carcinogens.
Pesticide Free:
Pesticides are hormonal disrupters which are linked to cancer and similar to parabens.
Fragrance Free:
Inflammation created by fragrance slows the wound healing process. Additionally, almost 5,000 chemicals used in fragrance can react with other ingredients present in skin care products to become indirect carcinogens.
Lanolin Free:
Lanolin, derived from sheep, can be an endocrine disruptor because carcinogens such as Dioxane and DDT may be present in the grass that the sheep ingest.
Alcohol Free:
Alcohol dries and irritates the skin which causes inflammation.
Triclosan and Resorcinol Free:
Used as an anti-bacterial agent and a preservative, these ingredients are known to be hormonal disrupters.
Lead, Mercury and Arsenic Free:
Heavy metals affect the nervous system and are considered neurotoxins.
Laureth Sulfate and Polysorbate Free:
Cleansing agents such as Ethylene Oxide, Dioxane, Sodium/Ammonium Laureth/Laurel Sulfate and Polysorbate may contain carcinogens.
Diethanolamine (DEA) Free:
Cleansing agents such as DEA and its derivatives like DEA Sodium Laurel Sulfate are considered carcinogens.
Propylene Glycol Free:
Propylene Glycol, a commonly used solvent and humectant, is a known allergen and may be contaminated with carcinogens such as Ethylene Oxide and Dioxane.
