So I've told you guys, the cons of sulfates, but did you know there are tons of other agents in shampoos, conditioners, beauty products,shaving creams, and even toothpaste that can harm you? Since we put these products directly on our scalps, face, body and gums (the quickest absorbing of them all!) we are deliberately putting ourselves in harm! Today I'm going to tell you guys a little about Parabens ...
Parabens- AKA- methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben, isobutylparaben, isopropylparaben, benzylparaben and their sodium salts
*Some research concludes that they cause cancer- Parabens can Mimic the hormone estrogen, which can lead to breast cancer. As a matter of fact, most of the negative effects of Parabens effect reproductive health.
"Even though it is impossible to link parabens directly with tumors based on the current studies, it is also impossible to say parabens are safe as well since their long-term health effects of exposure are essentially unknown" (Wikipedia)
