It feels like everything we buy nowadays can cause cancer and other health problems. Most companies use toxic ingredients to cut costs ; they really don’t care about the consumer’s health. It’s common to see cancer causing ingredients in most personal care products. A study confirmed that we’ve been washing our hair with shampoos that contain chemicals that alter sex hormones in youth and kids.
New study from the University of California, Berkeley has found that most conventional shampoos are loaded with endocrine-disrupting chemicals that alter hormones in young children and even adults.
The study discovered that as a result of exposure to these altering hormones, girls are reaching puberty much earlier than normal.
These chemicals such as phthalates, parabens, and phenols mimic hormones in the human body causing adolescent youth to reach puberty far too early.
Most of these chemicals are Xenoestrogens; they mimic estrogen in the body and interfere with the proper functioning of our endocrine system causing Estrogen Dominance in women.
