Why product choices can be dangerous to your health

Before we get started, did you know that your skin can absorb 60 percent of the substances applied to it? I know you might be thinking, “Who cares” right? However when you truly understand what is really going into your body and the amount of potential cancer-causing chemicals that are absorbing, you begin to listen up, just like you’re doing now.

When all the hazardous chemicals are carried into our blood, terrible chemicals can interact in such a way with the other chemicals that already exist there from other factors and sometimes can provoke the cells which, can result in a form of cancer. Even though cancer is the number one thing on many peoples’ minds there can be other problems as well, such as fertility problems, diabetes, Alzheimer’s and of course they can worsen existing acne or cause reactions that look very similar to it.
