Toxins And Chemicals Hidden In Places No One Would Think About!
Most of us have heard that toxins and chemicals are affecting our health. Do we really know where they are coming from? We are in contact with hidden toxins every day, slowly but surely poisoning our bodies and destroying our health. There is no simple way to avoid them unless we know where they are and where they come from. When we read about toxic pollution we think about the air, smog, our oceans, polluted rivers and landfills. Little we realise that these poisons are in our imitate vicinity. They are found right here in our homes, in ordinary things we use every day, even in clothes we are wearing. Many tests on toxins and chemicals performed over the years to determine the health effects they can have on our bodies. However, some important tests until recently, about the cumulative effect of so many low - level toxins we come in to contact with every day have not been recognized or being ignored.
The pleasant smell is misleading!We all like that pleasant smell of the interior in a new car. This clean, fresh smelling aroma has nothing to do with aromatherapy. On the contrary, with every breath you take you put toxins in to your body. One solution: Leave your windows down! Without going for a drive in that brand new car, some of the worst toxins are found right here in our homes, just in the ordinary objects we use and come in contact with every day. Deodorants' and air-fresheners have similar effects, some furniture, floor mats, shower curtains, carpets and not to forget children's toys.
Now, you may have already some health problems and symptoms like being low in energy, not sleeping well, too many headaches, or in general not feeling well. Best option is to have a blood test done for chemical toxins in the blood. Such tests according to studies have found I variety of toxins and chemicals in the blood that can bring on many health issues.
We are in contact with them every day!More so than men, women be aware of hygiene products containing toxic ingredients. It is a known fact that many times when chemicals come in contact with our skin these chemicals being absorbed straight in to our blood stream.
A variety of potentially toxic ingredients have been found in feminine hygiene products such as tampons and sanitary pads. How would anyone know? This is one more instance where labelling laws become even more intriguing. Just to highlight this very point: Thanks to generous government regulations manufacturers are not required disclosing the ingredients used in their products. Tests have revealed that over 60 different chemicals have been found in the bodies of older generations. Despite of toxic compounds banned for more than a quarter century they are still being found in humans when tested.
You may have symptoms such as feeling tired and low of energy, suffering from joint pain and inflammation, if you're plagued by "senior moments" such as brain fog, this could also be one of the reasons.
Chemical cocktail in cosmeticsIt would be a perfect world if we could eat, drink, enjoy anything we like without any consequences affecting our health. We often wonder where it comes from when sickness strikes and we can't always find the right answer for it. Besides the food we are eating we also contributing with the things we use every day that is gradually affecting our health. The minute we step in to the shower, using the nice scented soaps, shampoos, powders, make up, eye shadow, aftershave for men, toothpaste, creams and deodorants, and this are just some. All of these products and many more contain chemicals and toxins, not one of them is squeaky clean.
Experts have urged women to stop the use of deodorants and anti-perspirants as a result of chemicals called parabens - used as preservatives in underarm products, these chemicals were found in breast tumours. Hundreds of cosmetics and toiletries contain a cocktail of cancer-causing agents and untested chemicals, according to studies. Of the more than 10.000 chemicals ingredients used in cosmetics and personal care products only 11 percent had undergone safety tests. Experts warn consumers, particular children playing with make-up and using toothpaste they could easily swallow.
The study coincides with world health organisation calls for a ban on fragrances used in children's products. From an environment and health conference came this warning that chemicals being made and marketed with "largely unknown" effects on human health.
