Pretty Toxic: A new Documentary on the chemicals on your skin from cosmetics
Posted by on
From Mercola:
- The documentary "Pretty Toxic" highlights real-life cases of severe health consequences from using seemingly harmless personal care products, emphasizing the need for stronger safety regulations
- The U.S. cosmetics industry operates under minimal regulation, with outdated laws from 1938 and no FDA authority to recall dangerous products, posing health risks to consumers
- Common ingredients in personal care products, such as phthalates, parabens and formaldehyde, have been linked to serious health issues including cancer, reproductive problems and hormone disruption
- Environmental concerns arise from personal care product chemicals entering water systems, with sunscreen pollution significantly impacting marine ecosystems, particularly coral reefs
- Consumers can make informed choices using resources like EWG's Skin Deep database, while supporting companies prioritizing safety and transparency, and advocating for stronger regulations and green chemistry education.

40% of IVF Treatments Are Unnecessary from Dr. Joseph Mercola
STORY AT-A-GLANCEOne scientist believes up to 40% of in vitro fertilization (IVF) procedures may be unnecessary if a woman's low progesterone levels are treated. In response to her own struggle with miscarriages, Amy Galliher-Beckley, Ph.D., designed a urine test for progesterone metabolites she believes will help women avoid IVFProgesterone and estrogen are two important hormones [...]
Paul Marik, MD tenured Professor of Medicine shares solution for Diabetes Type 2 from Mercola
Finding Truth Brought a Silver Lining: Better Health As noted by Marik, what happened with COVID has shone a bright light on corruption, deceit and dishonesty in the medical system that had been there for decades. It just wasn't obvious to most people.Once Marik began looking at protocols to treat COVID, he discovered that much of [...]
Americans are Getting Fatter Over the Last 20 Years and American Laboratory Animals, Marmosets, Chimpanzees, Vervet Monkeys and Mice, and Domestic Dogs, Domestic Cats, Domestic and Feral Rats (Rural and Urban) are Getting Fatter Too
Researcher David Allison at University of Alabama states the American people were getting fatter over the last 20 years. And so were lab macaques, chimps, monkeys, and rural rats and feral rats. Researchers examined 8 different species and found that the average weight has been increasing steadily over the past 20 years. [...]
Study Shows Sunscreen Absorbed into the Body at Up to 360 Times More Than FDA Allows
FDA researchers tested 6 main ingredients in sunscreens. All of these chemicals had concentrations in the blood above the FDA threshold of 0.5 nanograms (ng - a nanogram is a billionth of a gram) per milliliter (mL) of blood plasma. These ingredients were above the FDA threshold for seven days AFTER the sunscreens were applied. Two [...]
Palau Becomes the first country to ban Endocrine Disrupting Toxic Chemicals in Sunscreens
Palau bans "Reef Toxic" Sunscreen Creams. Palau was once heralded as one of the best places in the world to scuba dive by Jacques Cousteau. When I was a kid, Jacques Cousteau was my hero. His undersea videos shown on network TV inspired me to almost go into marine biology.Well, it turns out that minute [...]

I am just repeating and refining the information provided by the National Institute of Health of the US Government, or NIH (nih.gov). On this link the NIH, says that Endocrine Disruptors are no joke, and [...]
Women with High Levels of Phthalates (Chemical Hormone Disruptors) Have Low Sex Drive
Scientists at the American Society for Reproductive Medicine recently found that women the had high levels of an endocrine (hormone) disrupting chemical, phthalate, had a low sex drive. Barrett, the researcher, believes that certain phthalates may lead to decreased sex drive in women. Women that had high levels of a certain phthalate metabolite [...]
