So, here is the issue. We live in a toxic world where we are all bombarded with harmful chemical additives in most of the products that we use. The food that we eat has additives and preservatives that may be harmful, the water that we drink can be contaminated, and the air that we breathe could be polluted.
As a result, we are subjected to all sorts of health problems. Birth defects, developmental problems and diseases are on the rise. This is a short list:
Cancer
Asthma
Allergies
Diabetes
Chronic Illnesses
Obesity
Food Poisoning
Heart Disease
MS
ADD/ADHD
Autism
And the list goes on and on….
Drug companies create drugs that battle diseases, but these create side effects. Have you ever watched their ads on TV? The side effects are often worse than what the drug was intended to treat. Then you need more drugs to treat the side effects and so on and so on.
Here is an example of what is going on; according to Kevin Trudeau’s book “The Weight Loss Cure” the drug companies and the food industry (especially the fast food companies) are in bed together. The drug companies put growth hormones and preservatives into the food that make us addicted to their products. What this does is makes us crave more and eat more than we need. This causes obesity and this leads to diseases such as diabetes. Then we buy weight loss products (manufactured by the same drug companies who put the growth hormones and preservatives in the food in the first place.) Are you beginning to get the picture?
Did you know that many personal care and household products you use are full of poisons? Anti-freeze used to protect your cars’ engine and Drano crystals used to unclog your plumbing are full of poisons that are in many of the products you use everyday!
Anti-freeze contains propylene glycol and ethylene glycol which are extremely dangerous toxins. Ethylene glycol is metabolized by the liver and can cause severe damage to the kidneys called “acute renal tubular necrosis”. Sounds great huh! It also causes the PH of your blood to be more acidic (metabolic acidosis). Drano crystals contain sodium hydroxide which is also extremely poisonous.
These are just a couple of examples of what the products that you use everyday may contain.
Now go look in your bathroom at your shampoo! Go ahead, RUN, I can wait. You will probably find some sort of glycol as one of the ingredients. The companies will claim that it is pharmaceutical grade and safe for you to use. Is it really safe? Consider how many products you use everyday and the number of years you use these products.
Here is something else, I wonder why there are so many products that are safe for the environment, and the rage is “green”, but we continue to contaminate our bodies with harmful chemical additives in our cosmetics and personal care products.
Look at the products you are using in your home. Check out the Environmental Working Group’s Skin Deep Cosmetic Safety Data Base at http://www.cosmeticsdatabase.com to see how the products you use rank in toxicity. You can also download the Shoppers Guide to Safe Cosmetics on that website.
There is good news! After you check out the products you currently use, type in the word Xango. You can also contact me for more information and go to my website.
