You’ve probably heard horror stories of 3-foot tapeworms that cause serious problems for some people, but did you know that most parasites are very tiny and some can only be seen by microscope?

For the purist in natural living, the question that must be asked is, “Is Listerine still my mouthwash of choice?”.

When it comes to toxins in skin care, cosmetics and personal care products it is hard to find products that are safe and nontoxic. On the other side, Millions of women put on cosmetics every day without ever considering whether dangerous chemicals lurk inside the tube…
I’ve written before about toxins in personal care products, from toothpaste to make up. Now, another study has found that heavy metals in lipsticks and lip glosses are of concern.
Researchers from University of California, Berkeley tested 33 lipsticks and lip glosses commonly found in drugstores and department stores and used by young women in a California youth program. They detected lead, cadmium, chromium, aluminium and five other metals, some of which were found at levels that could raise potential health concerns.
The highest lead levels where found in brands like Procter & Gamble (Cover Girl brand), L’Oréal (L’Oréal, Body Shop and Maybelline brands) and Revlon as well as Dior.

When most people think of toxins and pollution, they think of the outdoors -- garbage-choked streams, industrial waste, pesticides, heavy metals. But the danger is awaiting you indoors too, in your own home depending on the choices you make when it comes to personal care and home care products. Most supermarket products and even products labelled organic or natural can contain unsafe, questionable ingredients – toxins. These toxins are harmful no matter whether you are absorbing them through your skin (shower gel, detergent, deodorant, cosmetics, toothpaste etc.) or breathing them into your lungs (cleaning products, hair spray, but also fragrances from your personal care products).
